About this trial
This Phase 2, open-label, randomized study in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an intravenously delivered oncolytic vaccinia virus, Olvi-Vec, followed by platinum-doublet chemotherapy + Physician's Choice of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (ICI) vs. docetaxel for patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC who have shown first disease progression (i.e., progressive disease not yet confirmed by further scan after initial scan showing progression) while on front-line treatment or maintenance ICI therapy after front-line treatment with platinum-doublet chemotherapy + ICI as standard of care.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Male or female 18 years or older.
ECOG (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) performance status of 0 or 1.
Have histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic NSCLC.

Disqualifiers
Active and untreated urinary tract infection, pneumonia, or other systemic infections.
Current symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastasis.
Any uncontrolled systemic disease, condition or comorbidity that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would interfere with evaluation of study treatment or interpretation of patient safety or study results.
Persistent toxicities [Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Grade ≥ 3] caused by previous anticancer therapy; alopecia and vitiligo are excluded toxicities.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Progression-free Survival per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
To assess progression-free survival from time of randomization until first documented disease progression based on radiological assessment or death from any cause.
Secondary outcomes
Objective Response Rate (ORR) by RECIST 1.1
Ratio of the sum of complete responses (CR) \& partial responses (PR) divided by the number of participants from start of treatment to confirmation of response.
Median Overall Survival
Time from randomization until death or study completion; assessed up to 36 months.
Six-month Progression-free Survival Rate
Proportion of patients who remained alive and progression-free at 6 months.
Incidence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events
From date of first study treatment until death or study completion.
