Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
HPV-Related Squamous Cell Carcinoma | Drug: HB-201 intravenous administration. Drug: HB-202 intravenous administration alternating with HB-201 intravenous administration. Drug: HB-201 intravenous administration + standard of care regimen including pembrolizumab. Drug: HB-202 / HB-201 alternating intravenous administration + pembrolizumab. Drug: HB-202 / HB-201 alternating intravenous administration + standard of care regimen including pembrolizumab. Drug: HB-201 or HB-201/HB-202 alternating treatment using CD8 PET Tracer (Zr-Df-IAB22M2C) | Phase 1 Phase 2 |
HB-201 and HB-202 are study drugs which are designed to train the body to recognize and fight substances found in HPV 16+ cancer. This trial studies the safety and anti-cancer effect of HB-201 and HB-202 in people.
The trial is enrolling patients with metastatic/recurrent head and neck cancer who have not yet received treatment in this setting (1L, first line) and who are eligible to receive pembrolizumab as part of their standard of care. This trial is also enrolling patients with metastatic/recurrent head and neck who have received prior treatment in this setting (2L+, second and later line) who are eligible to receive pembrolizumab as part of their standard of care. Patients will receive the study drugs in addition to their pembrolizumab standard of care regimen.

Dose escalation; 10 patients |
- Phase I Dose Escalation: Determine Phase II dose based on incidence of dose-limiting toxicities. [ Time Frame: From dosing until 21-28 days after first dose ]Determine the recommended Phase II dose in terms of safety and tolerability for intravenously administered HB-201, and intravenously administered HB-202 by assessing drug limiting toxicities.
- Phase II Dose Expansion: Number of participants with preliminary antitumor activity based on objective response rate. [ Time Frame: Until progression, (estimated up to 30-months) ]Assess the preliminary antitumor activity of dosage regimens of HB-201 and HB-202 using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) to determine objective response rate (ORR).
- Phase I Dose Escalation: Number of participants with adverse events (type, frequency, severity). [ Time Frame: From informed consent through 30 days after last dose. ]Assess the safety and tolerability of dosage regimens of HB-201 and HB-202 by monitoring the type, frequency, and severity of AEs and SAEs by monitoring the type, frequency, and severity of AEs and SAEs.
- Phase I Dose Escalation: Number of participants with preliminary antitumor activity based on objective response rate and disease control rate. [ Time Frame: Until progression, (estimated up to 30-months) ]Assess the preliminary antitumor activity of dosage regimens of HB-201 and HB-202 using RECIST and iRECIST
- Phase II Dose Expansion: Number of participants with confirmed duration of preliminary antitumor activity. [ Time Frame: Up to 30-months (until progression) ]Confirm duration of preliminary antitumor activity of dosage regimens of HB-201 and HB-202 alone of in combination with pembrolizumab, using RECIST and iRECIST
- Phase II Dose Expansion: Number of participants with adverse events (type, frequency, severity). [ Time Frame: From informed consent through 30 days after last dose ]Assess the safety and tolerability of dosage regimens of HB-201 and HB-202 alone or in combination with pembrolizumab by monitoring the type, frequency, and severity of AEs and SAEs.
