Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Objective Response Rate (ORR), Duration of response (DOR) and Durable Radiographic Response (DRR) [24 months]
Objective response rate (comprised of patients meeting an objective radiographic response or ORR): Patients achieving a CR or PR. DOR: Time from first ORR observed (once confirmed) until PD first observed (once confirmed) or death; whichever comes first. DRR: An ORR that persists for ≥ 6 months. All response must be confirmed via two consecutive MRI assessments at least 4 weeks apart. If on bevacizumab therapy when response first noted, response will be confirmed ≥ 8 weeks off bevacizumab, via MRI.
- Frequency and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events [24 months]
Assess safety and tolerability of lerapolturev followed by pembrolizumab via frequency and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) via Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE, v5.0)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Disease control rate (DCR) [24 months]
Proportion of patients achieving stable disease (SD), CR or PR via protocol-specified response criteria
- Duration of disease control (DDC) [24 months]
DDC ≥ 6 months for those meeting DCR
- Progression free survival time [24 months]
If calculable, progression free survival (PFS) will be estimated based on the time from lerapolturev infusion to death or confirmed progression
- Survival assessed by Kaplan-Meier methods [24 months]
Overall and landmark survival assessed by the proportion of patients alive at ≥ 6, ≥ 12 and at 24 months post-lerapolturev infusion estimated by Kaplan-Meier methods.
Other Outcome Measures
- Biomarker identification [24 months]
Assessment of tumor tissue and blood samples for identification of genetic, cytologic, histologic and/or other markers that correlate with anti-tumor response.
- Radiographic response/progression/PFS via iRANO [24 months]
Alternative assessment of radiographic response/progression/PFS via iRANO
