Study Overview

Brief Summary

A research study evaluating a new oncolytic virus, THEO-260, in patients with advanced ovarian cancer. The trial will investigate different doses of THEO-260 administered intravenously to identify a dose that is safe, well tolerated, and exhibits preliminary evidence of anti tumour activity.

Arms & Interventions

THEO-260

Experimental

Intervention: THEO-260 (Biological)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Safety and tolerability of THEO-260 [Part A]

Time Frame: Until Day 28 after first dose

Assessment of DLTs and AEs during treatment and follow-up using NCI CTCAE v5.0 or ASCO (for pneumonitis only) or ASTCT (for CRS only), plus Laboratory parameters and clinical safety assessments.

Establish recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for THEO-260 [Part A]

Time Frame: Estimated at 2 years

Determination of RP2D will be based on the totality of safety, PK and preliminary efficacy data

Evaluate preliminary efficacy of THEO-260 [Part B]

Time Frame: Estimated at 16 weeks

Determine tumour response by RECIST v1.1 and iRECIST and changes in CA-125.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Pharmacokinetics (PK) of THEO-260(Estimated at 16 weeks)
  • Shedding of THEO-260(Until Day 29 after first dose)
  • Systemic CRS risk after THEO-260(Until Day 29 after first dose)
  • Preliminary efficacy of THEO-260 [Part A](Estimated at 16 weeks)
  • Safety and tolerability of THEO-260 [Part B](Until end of trial, estimated at 1 year after start of enrolment)
