Brief Title: A Study to Evaluate the Safety of Intuvax Administered Intra-tumorally in Patients With Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors
Official Title: A Phase I Open-label Study Evaluating Safety and Efficacy of Intratumorally Administered Intuvax in Patients With Progressing Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) During Ongoing Second, Third or Fourth Line Treatment With Tyrosine Kinase Inhibition Therapy. A Prospective Single Armed, Open Label Phase I Safety and Efficacy Study
Study ID: NCT02686944
Brief Summary: The study is a prospective single armed, open label phase I study. Patients with advanced or metastatic GIST and tumor progression despite ongoing treatment with second, third or fourth line TKI treatment, and with at least one measureable tumor lesion, will be eligible for the study. A maximum of 12 patients will be included in this study. The patients will continue with TKI treatment until the 3 months follow up visit. If further tumor progression TKI will be withdrawn but if stable disease or objective response the patient will continue with TKI until progress. The investigational product Intuvax will be injected into a tumor lesion at two or three treatment occasions; day 1, 14 days (±3 days) after the first vaccination, and 28 days (±3 days) after the second vaccination (patient 7-12 only). Intuvax will be injected in a viable part of the tumor, using ultrasound-guided or CT technique for correct administration.
