Efficacy & Safety of rAd-IFN Administered With Celecoxib & Gemcitabine in Patients With Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma
brief summary
This study will evaluate intrapleural administration of Adenovirus-Delivered Interferon Alpha-2b (rAd-IFN) in combination with Celecoxib and Gemcitabine in patients with histologically confirmed Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) who have failed a minimum of 1 treatment regimen and a maximum of 2 treatment regimens, 1 of which must have been an anti-folate and platinum combination regimen. Eligible patients will be randomized 1:1 to either: 1. Treatment group: rAd-IFN + Celecoxib followed by Gemcitabine 2. Control group: Celecoxib followed by Gemcitabine Patients randomized to the treatment group will receive rAd-IFN administered into the pleural space via an Intrapleural catheter (IPC) or similar intrapleural device on study Day 1. The primary objective of this study is to compare the overall survival (OS) associated with rAd IFN, when administered with celecoxib and gemcitabine, versus that associated with celecoxib and gemcitabine alone for the treatment of patients with MPM
detailed description
TITLE: A Phase 3, Open-Label, Randomized, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Intrapleural Administration of Adenovirus-Delivered Interferon Alpha-2b (rAd-IFN) in Combination with Celecoxib and Gemcitabine in Patients with Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma
PROTOCOL NUMBER: rAd-IFN-MM-301
STUDY DRUGS: Nadofaragene firadenovec (Recombinant adenovirus vector containing the human interferon alpha-2b gene: rAd-IFN), celecoxib, and gemcitabine
PHASE: 3
INDICATION: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM)
SPONSOR: Ferring Ventures Ltd.
SITES: Up to 45 sites globally
OBJECTIVES:
The primary objective of this study is to compare the overall survival (OS) associated with rAd IFN, when administered with celecoxib and gemcitabine, versus that associated with celecoxib and gemcitabine alone for the treatment of patients with MPM who have failed a minimum of 1 treatment regimen and a maximum of 2 treatment regimens, 1 of which must have been an anti-folate and platinum combination regimen.
The secondary objectives of this study are:
* To compare between rAd-IFN, when administered with celecoxib and gemcitabine, versus that associated with celecoxib and gemcitabine alone for the treatment of patients with MPM who have failed a minimum of 1 treatment regimen and a maximum of 2 treatment regimens, 1 of which must have been an anti-folate and platinum combination regimen, with respect to:
* Survival rate at 12 months and every 6 months thereafter; * Progression-free survival (PFS); * Best response (complete response, partial response, or stable disease); and * Safety of rAd-IFN; and * To evaluate rAd-IFN, when administered with celecoxib and gemcitabine, in a sub-set of patients with MPM who have failed a minimum of 1 treatment regimen and a maximum of 2 treatment regimens, 1 of which must have been an anti-folate and platinum combination regimen, with respect to viral shedding and biodistribution.
The exploratory objectives of this study are:
