Abstract

Background

RP2 is an enhanced potency oncolytic herpes simplex virus (HSV) -1 expressing GM-CSF, a fusogenic protein (GALV-GP R-), and an anti-CTLA-4 antibody-like molecule that is being evaluated in an open-label, multicenter, phase 1 clinical trial as monotherapy and combined with nivolumab (nivo). Here, we present updated safety, efficacy, and biomarker data of RP2 ± nivo.

Methods

After determination of the RP2D (106 PFU/mL intratumorally (IT) once followed by up to 7 additional doses of 107 PFU/mL via IT), a cohort of 30 patients (pts) was enrolled and treated with RP2 combined with nivo (240 mg Q2W for 4 months from the second RP2 dose, then 480 mg Q4W for 20 months). Responses were assessed using modified RECIST v1.1.

Results

Objective responses with RP2 monotherapy were observed in 3 out of 9 pts including 1 CR for ≥15 months in mucoepidermoid carcinoma, 1 PR for ≥18 months in esophageal cancer with liver metastases, 1 PR in uveal melanoma with liver metastases that progressed at 15 months. Objective responses with RP2 + nivo treatment were 44.4% in cutaneous melanoma (4/9), 25% in uveal melanoma (2/8), and 33% in SCCHN (1/3) pts. All seven responding patients had previously failed anti-PD-1 therapy, with all but one response durable to date for >425 days. The most common adverse events (grade 1-2) were pyrexia, chills, influenza-like illness, fatigue, and pruritus. No grade 4-5 events were observed. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis indicated robust increases in CD8 T cell influx, PD-L1 expression, and an increase in the CD8/foxp3+ cell ratio. Clinical responses were independent of baseline CD8 T cell infiltration, PD-L1 expression levels, and prior anti-PD-1 therapy status.

Conclusions

RP2 ± nivo demonstrated good tolerability and durable systemic responses in pts with difficult-to-treat, heavily pretreated and anti-PD-1 failed advanced cancers. These data continue to support the hypothesis that oncolytic delivery of anti-CTLA-4 into tumors, with accompanying antigen release, presentation and immune activation, can provide potent systemic anti-tumor effects.
