A Phase 1 Dose Escalation Study of Seneca Valley Virus (NTX-010), A Replication-Competent Picornavirus, in Relapsed/Refractory Pediatric Patients With Neuroblastoma, Rhabdomyosarcoma, or Rare Tumors With Neuroendocrine Features
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To estimate the maximum-tolerated dose and/or recommended phase II dose of Seneca
Valley virus-001 (NTX-010) when administered as a single infusion to pediatric patients
with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, or rare tumors with
neuroendocrine features (Wilms tumor, retinoblastoma, adrenocortical carcinoma, or
carcinoid tumors). (Part A [completed])
- To confirm that there is viral replication in these patients following NTX-010
administration. (Part A [completed])
- To define and describe the toxicities of NTX-010 when administered on this schedule.
(Part A [completed])
- To determine whether the number of regulatory T cells (as measured by flow cytometry)
can effectively be reduced following administration of NTX-010 plus low-dose metronomic
and intravenous cyclophosphamide. (Part B)
- To characterize the pharmacokinetics (time course of viral clearance) following NTX-010
administration in these patients.
Secondary
- To preliminarily define the antitumor activity of NTX-010 within the confines of a
phase I study. (Part A [completed])
- To evaluate the development of neutralizing antibodies to NTX-010 following IV
administration of NTX-010. (Part A [completed])
- To evaluate development of neutralizing antibodies to NTX-010 following the combination
of NTX-010 and cyclophosphamide. (Part B)
- To investigate the presence and permissivity of occult circulating tumor cells prior to
and after the initial intravenous administration of NTX-010.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Part A (completed): Patients receive Seneca Valley virus-001 (NTX-010) IV over 1 hour on day
1.
Part B: Patients receive cyclophosphamide IV orally (PO) on days 1-14 and NTX-010 IV over 1
hour on day 8. In the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, patients then
receive cyclophosphamide orally (PO) on days 22-35, plus cyclophosphamide IV over 1 hour and
NTX-010 IV over 1 hour on day 29.
Tumor tissue samples are collected at baseline for biomarker studies. Blood and stool
samples are collected periodically for neutralizing antibody and viral clearance studies.
Additional blood samples may also be collected for the presence and permissivity of occult
tumor cells.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up periodically for up to 1 year.
