About this trial

Phase 1/2, Open-label, Multi-center, First-in-human Study of the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics and Anti-tumor Activity of STX-001 Delivered by Intratumoral Injection in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors as a Monotherapy or in Combination with Pembrolizumab. The study now includes a monotherapy cohort targeting visceral lesions and a separate Phase 2 monotherapy cohort for advanced melanoma.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • STX-001

    Biological/Vaccine

    STX-001 encapsulates a self-replicating RNA encoded for IL-12, contained within an LNP for intratumoral injection. Injections may be administered into multiple lesions according to protocol-defined procedures.

  • Keytruda®

    Biological/Vaccine

    Pembrolizumab (Keytruda USPI 2023) is a marketed PD-1 blocking humanized monoclonal IgG4 kappa antibody.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Number and nature of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) in patients with advanced solid tumors.

The occurrence of DLTs, TEAEs, and SAEs will be used to determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose of STX-001.

Time frame
From time of informed consent until 30 days after the last dose of investigational product (STX-001).
2

Occurrence of changes from baseline in patients' clinical safety laboratory values and vital signs to assess the safety and tolerability of STX-001.

Collection and analysis of changes in data from baseline of patients' vital signs (temperature, pulse, respiratory rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation via pulse oximetry) as well as clinical safety laboratory values (chemistry, hematology, coagulation, complement (Bb \& C3a), urinalysis, and lipids).

Time frame
From time of informed consent until 30 days after the last dose of investigational product (STX-001).

Secondary outcomes

1

Assessment of PK in patients dosed with STX-001

Individual and mean plasma STX-001 concentrations versus time data will be collected, summarized, and plotted by dose level.

Time frame
From time of informed consent until 30 days after the last dose of investigational product (STX-001).
2

Assessment of Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs)

Assessment of STX-001 PK concentrations in mono therapy and safety and tolerability of STX-001 in combination with pembrolizumab in the tumor microenvironment (biopsy).

Time frame
From time of informed consent until 30 days after the last dose of investigational product (STX-001).
3

Number and nature of preliminary antitumor activity of STX-001.

Proportion of patients with objective response rate (ORR), complete response (CR), or partial response (PR) per RECIST 1.1.

Time frame
From time of informed consent until 30 days after the last dose of investigational product (STX-001).
4

Number and nature of preliminary antitumor activity of STX-001 in combination with pembrolizumab.

Proportion of patients with objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), complete response (CR), partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) per RECIST 1.1.

Time frame
From time of informed consent until 30 days after the last dose of investigational product (STX-001).
