LEGEND Study: EG-70 in NMIBC Patients BCG-Unresponsive and High-Risk NMIBC Incompletely Treated With BCG or BCG-Naïve

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravesical administration of EG-70 in the bladder and its effect on bladder tumors in patients with NMIBC. This study study consists of two phases; a Phase 1 dose-escalation to establish safety and recommended the phase 2 dose, followed by a Phase 2 study to establish how effective the treatment is. The Study will include patients with NMIBC with Cis for whom BCG therapy is unresponsive and patients with NMIBC with Cis who are BCG-naïve or inadequately treated.

Official Title

A Phase 1/2 Study of EG-70 as an Intravesical Administration to Patients With BCG Unresponsive Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) and High-Risk NMIBC Patients Who Are BCG Naïve or Received Incomplete BCG Treatment

Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. 1. BCG-unresponsive NMIBC with carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without coexisting papillary Ta/T1 tumors who are ineligible for or have elected not to undergo cystectomy, and have experienced 1) persistent disease within 12 months of treatment or 2) a recurrence within 6 months of completion of adequate BCG therapy, where: adequate BCG regimen consists of at least 2 courses of BCG where the first course (induction) must have included at least 5 or 6 doses and the second course may have included a re-induction (at least 2 treatments) or maintenance (at least 2 doses), and Cis must be documented or indicated by pathology

NMIBC with current Cis of the bladder, with or without coexisting papillary Ta/T1 NMIBC tumor(s), who are ineligible for or have elected not to undergo cystectomy, where: either: a) incomplete BCG (at least 1 dose) treatment or b) no treatment with BCG but who have previously been treated with at least 1 dose of intravesical chemotherapy following transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT), and Cis must be documented or indicated by pathology
  3. 3. Patients who have previously been treated with an investigational or approved checkpoint inhibitor (e.g., pembrolizumab) and failed treatment are eligible for inclusion 30 days post-treatment (Phase 1) or 3 months post-treatment (Phase 2).

  13. 10. Hepatic inclusion:
  14. 1. Total bilirubin must be ≤1.5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN).
  15. 2. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase ≤2.5 x ULN.
  16. 11. Adequate renal function with creatinine clearance \>30 mL/min
  17. 12. Prothrombin time and partial thromboplastin time ≤1.25 x ULN or within the therapeutic range if on anticoagulation therapy.
  18. 13. Must have satisfactory bladder function with ability to retain study drug for a minimum of 60 minutes.
  19. 14. Patient or legally authorized representative must be willing and able to comply with all protocol requirements.
  20. 15. Must be willing and able to give informed consent.
  1. 1. Any malignancy (other than NMIBC) diagnosed within 1 year of study entry (except basal or squamous cell skin cancers or noninvasive cancer of the cervix) ), or any malignancy that has required therapy for active disease within the last 12 months.
  2. 2. Concurrent treatment with any chemotherapeutic agent.
  3. 3. History of partial cystectomy.
  4. 4. Treatment with pembrolizumab within 30 days (Phase 1) or 3 months (Phase 2) prior to Screening.
  5. 5. Treatment with last therapeutic agent (including intravesical chemotherapy post-TURBT) within 30 days of Screening.
  6. 6. Evidence of persistent or ongoing renal failure.
  7. 7. History of unresolved vesicoureteral reflux or an indwelling urinary stent.
  8. 8. History of unresolved hydronephrosis due to ureteral obstruction.
  9. 9. Participation in any other research protocol involving administration of an investigational agent within 30 Days prior to screening or any prior treatment of NMIBC with any investigational gene or immunotherapy agent.
  10. 10. History of external beam radiation to the pelvis at any time or prostate brachytherapy within the last 12 months.

  12. 12. Evidence of metastatic disease.
  13. 13. History of difficult catheterization that in the opinion of the Investigator will prevent administration of EG-70.
  14. 14. Active interstitial cystitis on cystoscopy or biopsy.
  15. 15. Active, uncontrolled bacterial, viral, or fungal infection(s) requiring systemic therapy.
