Brief Summary:
This is an open-label, First-in-Human, Phase 1/2, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single dose of AVB-001. AVB-001 is an encapsulated cell product engineered to produce native human interleukin-2 (hIL-2). It is delivered intraperitoneally (IP) to patients with high grade serous adenocarcinoma of the ovary, primary peritoneum, or fallopian tube.

Detailed Description:

This is an open-label, First-in-Human, Phase 1/2, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single dose of AVB-001. AVB-001 is an encapsulated cell product engineered to produce native human interleukin-2 (IL-2). It is delivered intraperitoneally (IP) to patients with high grade serous adenocarcinoma of the ovary, primary peritoneum, or fallopian tube.

The study will be conducted in two parts. Part 1 is the Dose Escalation Phase using a Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) model-assisted design in which a single dose of 1 of 4 dose levels of AVB-001 will be administered intraperitoneally (IP) in up to 24 patients. The four ascending dose levels of AVB-001 are targeted to produce hIL-2 levels of 0.6, 1.2, 2.4, and 3.6 μg hIL-2/kg/day. The purpose of Part 1 is to determine the maximally tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) level.

Part 2 is the Dose Expansion Phase 2 in which a single dose of AVB-001 at the RP2D will be administered in up to 20 additional adult patients with platinum-resistant, high-grade, serous adenocarcinoma of the ovary, primary peritoneum, or fallopian tube. Additional expansion cohorts may be opened in Part 2 either as monotherapy or as an exploratory combination strategy.

Drug: AVB-001 (Dose Escalation Phase)
One of four ascending doses of AVB-001 planned for IP, single dose administration in each dose level cohort of the Dose Escalation Phase (Part 1).

Drug: AVB-001 (Dose Expansion Phase)
The MTD/RP2D as determined in the Dose Escalation Phase will be further evaluated in the Dose Expansion Phase.

  3. May have received poly adenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, bevacizumab (or any other antiangiogenic agent), immunotherapy, or cell therapies. (Patients with germline or somatic breast cancer gene (BRCA) mutations must have progressed or been intolerant to PARP inhibitor therapy);
  4. Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0 to 1 at Screening;
