The IRX-2 regimen is the combination of a 2-week course of IRX-2 itself, an initial dose of cyclophosphamide, and a 3-week course of indomethacin, zinc supplementation, and omeprazole.

IRX-2 for 10 days (2 s.c. injections of 1 mL each day) into bilateral mastoid insertion regions.

IRX-2

Single i.v. injection of low-dose (300 mg/m2) on Day 1

21 days of oral indomethacin, 25 mg. 3 times daily

21 days of zinc gluconate (65 mg) as part of an oral multivitamin

This was a Phase 2a trial to investigate the safety and biological activity of the RIX-2 Regimen in patients with untreated, resectable squamous cell cancer of the head and neck (HNSCC).

IRX-2 is a primary cell-derived biologic that reduces the immune suppression that is often seen in the cancer tumor micro-environment, restores immune function and activates a coordinated immune response against the tumor. IRX-2 is a complex proprietary therapeutic containing numerous active cytokine components, which restores and activates multiple immune cell types including T cells, dendritic cells, and natural killer cells to recognize and destroy tumors.

The present study administered the IRX-2 Regimen to 27 patients as a neoadjuvant (before surgery) therapy, and the main objective of the study was to determine the safety and tolerability of the IRX-2 regimen.

To assess measures of immune competence following administration of the IRX-2 regimen, including skin test reactivity.

Estimate disease-free survival (DFS) (time from surgery to death or clinically apparent, biopsy confirmed recurrent or progressive disease after the completion of initial therapy, assessed up to 3 years; margins of resection positive for tumor will not be considered disease recurrence).

Estimate overall survival (OS) in patients receiving the IRX-2 regimen. IRX-2 is currently being studied in an on-going Phase 2b clinical trial in patients with newly diagnosed Stage II, III, and IVA squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity (INSPIRE)

Immunologic response features were extracted and quantified using a VAS of 0-100 mm to provide for a more continuous variable than the 0-4+ scale that is often used to assess histological responses. The scoring was such that 100 represented the maximum for any sample and 0 represented the lack of any parameter of interest.

See publication of Berinstein, et al., 2012 for complete details.

After participants completed the IRX-2 regimen and the tumor resection was performed, tumor pathology was evaluated from tissue specimens obtained at tumor resection. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded blocks, or unstained slides from the primary tumor were submitted to an independent pathology laboratory for hematoxylin and eosin staining, and evaluation of lymphocyte infiltration (LI). Participants were grouped into a "low LI" and "high LI" group based on the change in lymphocyte infiltration from the pretreatment tumor biopsy to the post-treatment tumor surgical resection. 5-year overall survival probabilities were then estimated (Kaplan-Meier) between the "low LI" and "high LI" groups
