Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial tests a new drug, ST101, given to patients with advanced cancers who haven't responded to other treatments. The study aims to find the safest and most effective dose. It includes patients with specific types of breast cancer, melanoma, brain cancer, and prostate cancer.

Eligibility Criteria

Adults with advanced solid tumors, including glioblastoma and certain types of breast, prostate, and melanoma cancers. Participants must have a measurable disease that's progressed after previous treatments, be willing to use birth control if necessary, and able to provide biopsy samples. They should not have other active cancers or infections like hepatitis B/C or HIV, nor should they be on certain medications that could affect the trial.

Inclusion Criteria

I agree to have two biopsies: one before and one during the study.
All my side effects from cancer treatment have improved, except for hair loss.
My tumor cannot be removed by surgery and has spread.

Treatment Details

Interventions

  • ST101 (Virus Therapy)
Trial OverviewThe study is testing ST101 given intravenously alongside Temozolomide and Radiation in two phases: first to find the safest dose (Phase 1) and then to see how well it works at that dose (Phase 2). Researchers want to learn about its safety, how the body processes it, and its preliminary effectiveness against cancer.
Participant Groups
7Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Newly Diagnosed GlioblastomaExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Newly diagnosed patients with a suboptimal resection or biopsy must be candidates for another surgical resection as determined by neurosurgical evaluation or multidisciplinary team based on the current standard of care that suggests that maximal safe resection is beneficial. Recurrent GBM patients must be candidates for tumor resection
Group II: Dose Expansion Recurrent GlioblastomaExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Recurrent GBM patients must have completed radiation at least 3 months prior to minimize the inclusion of patients with pseudoprogression. Recurrent GBM patients must have unequivocal radiographic evidence of tumor progression by contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan within 21 days prior to registration. Patients must be able to delay surgery for 2 - 4 weeks per investigator decision
Group III: Dose Expansion MelanomaExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This cohort must have Melanoma that has progressed after/or on treatment with an immune checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) and have received 1-2 prior lines of therapy for their advanced/metastatic disease. The starting dose of ST101 for Expansion will be derived from the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended dose for expansion (RDE) and the best dosing schedule determined during Dose Escalation.
Group IV: Dose Expansion HR+ BreastExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This cohort must have progressed after 1-2 hormone based therapies. The starting dose of ST101 for Expansion will be derived from the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended dose for expansion (RDE) and the best dosing schedule determined during Dose Escalation.
Group V: Dose Expansion GBMExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Primary (de novo) GBM that has recurred or progressed (per modified RANO criteria) after 1 standard treatment regimen. Standard therapy is defined as maximal surgical resection, radiotherapy, and concomitant temozolomide with radiotherapy or adjuvant chemotherapy with temozolomide. The starting dose of ST101 for Expansion will be derived from the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended dose for expansion (RDE) and the best dosing schedule determined during Dose Escalation.
Group VI: Dose Expansion CRPCExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
CRPC that has progressed after previous treatment with taxanes, abiraterone and enzalutamide/apalutamide. The starting dose of ST101 for Expansion will be derived from the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended dose for expansion (RDE) and the best dosing schedule determined during Dose Escalation.
Group VII: Dose EscalationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This cohort only patients diagnosed with locally advanced or metastatic melanoma, carcinoma or sarcoma of any tumor type who are refractory or intolerant to all available therapies. ST101 will be administered intravenously (IV), initially once per week.
