M7824 in People With Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis

Plain-language summary
Background:
Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-L1) is a protein on the surface of cells. It regulates if a cell can be killed by immune system cells. It is thought to be able to affect the immune system response to diseased cells like those infected with a virus. The molecule M7824 interferes with the activity of PD-L1. It could help the immune system kill cells infected with a virus . Since recurrent respiratory papillomatosis is caused by a virus infection, this molecule could help.
Objective:
To see if M7824 works in treating recurrent respiratory papillomatosis.
Eligibility:
Adults ages 18 years or older with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis
Design:
Participants will be screened with:
Medical history
Physical exam
Blood and pregnancy tests
Endoscopy procedure in clinic. A small tube with a camera will look at the inside of the nose, throat, larynx, and upper windpipe.
Some participants will also be screened with a chest scan.
At the start of the study, participants will:
Have a sedated endoscopy procedure where biopsies will be taken.
Have blood tests.
Have apheresis. Blood will be collected by a tube in an arm vein. A machine will remove white blood cells. The rest of the blood will be returned into an arm vein.
Fill out a voice questionnaire.
Participants will get the study molecule into a vein over about 1 hour. They will get it every other week for up to 12 weeks.
Participants will repeat screening and starting procedures throughout the study. They will also review side effects and any medicine they are taking.
When they are done with the study treatment, participants will be evaluated by repeating the study procedures. They may be evaluated periodically until their disease progresses.

* INCLUSION CRITERIA:
Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (RRP) criteria:
* Histological diagnosis of RRP confirmed by pathology report from a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA)-certified laboratory.
* One of the following:
* A Derkay anatomic score of 10 or greater and a history of two or more endoscopic interventions in the last 12 months for control of RRP.
* Pulmonary RRP with pulmonary disease that is measurable by computed tomography scan and evaluated by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Criteria.
* Tracheal involvement with RRP that has required either two or more endoscopic interventions in the last 12 months or a tracheostomy.
* Greater than or equal to 18 years of age.
* Able to understand and sign the Informed Consent Document.
* Clinical performance status of Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) 0 or 1.
* Willing to undergo endoscopic evaluation with biopsies in compliance with this protocol.
* No systemic therapy for RRP for at least 3 half-lives of the prior drug(s).

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
