Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Frequency of treatment-emergent Adverse Events and Dose Limiting Toxicities

    The Primary Outcome Measure will be based on the frequency of treatment-emergent Adverse Events and Dose Limiting Toxicities during and after the administration of investigational drug in monotherapy and investigational drug with combination therapy.

    28 days following dose administration for each dosed subject.

  • Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), maximum feasible dose (MFD) or optimal biological dose (OBD) and determine recommended Phase 1b/Phase 2a dose level.

    Review of safety review committee following subject treatment to review any AEs, SAEs, or DLTs

    28 days following dose administration for each dosed subject.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Biodistribution of CRX100 based on subject's viral load as assessed through a viral shedding assay.

    28 days following dose administration for each dosed subject.

  • Immune response to investigational drug based on subject's levels of neutralizing antibodies.

    28 days following dose administration for each dosed subject.

  • Early anti-tumor activity of investigational drug based on iRECIST criteria

    6 months after dose administration for each dosed subject.

Study Arms (2)

Monotherapy Dose-Escalation Cohorts

EXPERIMENTAL

Prior to the current amendment, no DLTs were observed at Dose Levels 1-5. Starting with the current protocol amendment, dosing decisions in monotherapy cohorts will utilize a 3+3 design for Dose Level 6. CRX100 infusion will occur every nine weeks (+/- 7 days). Subjects will receive up to a maximum of four infusions of CRX100 unless it is determined by the treating physician and the sponsor that it is in the best interest of the subjects to receive additional doses of CRX100 beyond four doses. A minimum of three DLT-evaluable subjects will be doses at Dose Level 6 and expanded to six subjects if determined necessary based on DLT incidence using the 3+3 design, and discussion with SRC and Sponsor.

Combination Therapy Cohorts

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects with relasped or refractory solid tumors, as defined in the inclusion criteria, will be enrolled to evaluate the safety and anti-tumor activity of CRX100 in combination with Pembrolizumab in patients with advanced solid malignancies. The dose of CRX100 used will be determined from the monotherapy cohorts. CRX100 infusion will occur every nine weeks (+/- 7 days). Subjects will receive up to a maximum of four doses of CRX100 unless it is determined by the treating physician and the sponsor that it is in the best interest of the subjects to receive additional doses of CRX100 beyond four doses. Pembrolizumab will be administered at 200mg IV every three weeks (Q3W) per the approved label.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subjects must meet all the following criteria to be enrolled in this study:
  • Age ≥18 years at the time of consent.
  • Subjects must have histologically confirmed diagnosis of one of the following tumors: triple negative adenocarcinoma of the breast (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative, estrogen receptor negative and progesterone receptor negative \[HER2-/ER-/PR-\]), adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), osteosarcoma, epithelial ovarian cancer, malignant melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), or gastric cancer. Documentation of the diagnosis with the original pathology report, or a recent biopsy, is required.
  • Subjects must have relapsed disease or refractory disease. Subjects must have received, completed, or become intolerant of prior standard of care therapies or are not expected to derive any clinical benefit from standard of care therapies.
  • Subjects with Ovarian cancer must have received at least one prior standard of care for their relapsed or refractory disease, which must include a platinum-based regimen.
