Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Trial of pIL-12 Electroporation Malignant Melanoma

Study Description

Brief Summary: This study will assess the safety and effectiveness of different dosing regimens of ImmunoPulse IL-12® in malignant melanoma. ImmunoPulse IL-12® is the combination of intratumoral interleukin-12 gene (also known as tavokinogene telseplasmid \[tavo\]) and in vivo electroporation-mediated plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid \[DNA\] vaccine therapy (tavo-EP) administered using the OncoSec Medical System (OMS). ImmunoPulse IL-12® is a gene therapy approach to directly induce a pro-inflammatory response within a tumor to initiate and/or enhance anti-tumor immunity.

Detailed Description: Plasmid IL-12 (pIL-12) at a concentration of 0.5 mg/mL will be injected intratumorally at a dose volume of ¼ of the calculated lesion volume and a dose volume per lesion of 0.1 mL for lesions of volume \< 0.4 cm3. Six pulses at field strengths of (E+) of 1500 V/cm and pulse width of 100 μs at 1-second intervals will be administered using the OncoSec Medical System (OMS) to each previously injected tumor. Three treatment regimens will be explored: Main Study: Treatment on Days 1, 5 and 8 for 1 cycle. Additional cycles may be repeated every 3 months at the Investigator's discretion. Addendum Regimen A: Treatment on Days 1, 8 and 15 every 6 weeks. Subsequent cycles may be given at 6-week intervals, for up to 9 treatment cycles in total. Addendum Regimen B: Treatment on Days 1, 5 and 8 every 6 weeks. Subsequent cycles may be given at 6-week intervals, for up to 9 treatment cycles in total. NOTE: An Addendum was added to the Main Protocol with the purpose of exploring the safety and efficacy of an increased treatment frequency schedule.
