Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of VE800 in combination with Nivolumab in patients with selected types of advanced or metastatic cancer

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

CONSORTIUM-IO is a first-in-human multicenter, open-label study, where it's main objectives will evaluate:

  • Safety and tolerability of VE800 in combination with Nivolumab

  • Efficacy as measured by a total of overall response rate.

The study will enroll approximately 111 patients with melanoma, patients with gastric/gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma, and patients with microsatellite-stable (MSS) colorectal cancer (CRC).

Nivolumab is an already approved by the FDA (the U.S. Food and Drug Administration), however, it is not approved for the study cancer indications. VE800 is the investigational product and alive VE800 bacterial consortium were designed to elicit an immune response.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: VE800 combination treatment with Nivolumab

Subjects will receive 5 days of oral vancomycin, followed by daily VE800 in combination with Nivolumab every 4 weeks.

Biological: VE800
VE800 is an orally administered (PO) live biotherapeutic product (LBP) consisting of 11 distinct nonpathogenic, nontoxigenic, commensal bacterial strains manufactured under GMP conditions. These strains were selected for their ability to induce an immune response.

Drug: Nivolumab
Nivolumab is an approved medication that blocks antibodies for certain types of cancer.
Other Names:
  • Opdivo
  • Drug: Vancomycin Oral Capsule
    Vancomycin is an antibiotic used to treat or prevent infection.
    Other Names:
  • Vancoccin
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Safety and tolerability of VE800 in combination with nivolumab: incidence of adverse events [From the first dose to 100 days after the last dose]

      Will be measured in terms of incidence of adverse events

    2. Evaluate clinical activity [From the first dose to 100 days after the last dose]

      Will be measured as objective response rate (ORR)

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Duration of response (DOR) [From the first dose to 100 days after the last dose]

      Evaluation of clinical benefit

    2. Best Overall Response [From the first dose to 100 days after the last dose]

      Evaluation of clinical benefit

    3. Disease Control Rate (DCR) [From the first dose to 100 days after the last dose]

      Evaluation of clinical benefit

    4. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [From the first dose to 100 days after the last dose]

      Evaluation of clinical benefit

    5. Overall Survival (OS) [From the first dose to 100 days after the last dose]

      Evaluation of clinical benefit

    6. Detection of VE800 bacterial strain colonization in stool [From the first dose to 100 days after the last dose]

      Measured by pharmacokinetics (PK) of VE800

    7. Degree of VE800 bacterial strain colonization in stool [From the first dose to 100 days after the last dose]

      Measured by pharmacokinetics (PK) of VE800colonization in stool

    8. Duration of VE800 bacterial strain colonization in stool [From the first dose to 100 days after the last dose]

      Measured by pharmacokinetics (PK) of VE800colonization in stool

    Eligibility Criteria

    Criteria

    Ages Eligible for Study:
    18 Years and Older
    Sexes Eligible for Study:
    All
    Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
    No
    Partial Inclusion Criteria:
    • Patients with advanced or metastatic cancer who have received no more than 3 lines of prior systemic therapy for advanced/metastatic disease.

    • Histologically diagnosed advanced (unresectable) or metastatic cancer with at least one measurable lesion as per RECIST 1.1

    • Tumor lesions amenable for biopsy, if deemed safe by the investigator

    • Toxicity from prior cancer therapy should resolve to CTCAE Grade ≤ 1 (excluding alopecia and neuropathy, where up to Grade 2 residual is allowed)

    Partial Exclusion Criteria:
    • Prior treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitor (iCPI) (Note: this criterion does not apply to patients with melanoma)

    • Receipt of any conventional or investigational systemic anti-cancer therapy within 26 days prior to the start of study treatment

    • Concurrent chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic, or hormonal anti-cancer therapy. Agents such as bisphosphonates or denosumab are acceptable as prophylaxis for bone metastasis.

    • Patients must not have received a transfusion (platelets or red blood cells) within 4 weeks of the first dose of study treatment

    • Patients with an active, known or suspected autoimmune disease. Patients with type I diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism only requiring hormone replacement, skin not requiring systemic treatment are permitted to enroll.

    • Patients with known active hepatitis (e.g., hepatitis B or C) NOTE: Patients with previously treated hepatitis B or C are permitted to enroll if there is evidence of documented resolution of infection.

    • Received a fecal transplant, spore or other preparation of fecal material, isolated bacterial products, genetically modified bacteria, or VE800
