OH2 Injection in Combination With HX008 for Melanoma.
China60 participantsStarted 2020-12-01
Plain-language summary
This phase Ib study evaluates the safety and efficacy of OH2 in combination with HX008, an anti-PD-1 antibody, in patients with Melanoma.
OH2 is an oncolytic virus developed upon genetic modifications of the herpes simplex virus type 2 strain HG52, allowing the virus to selectively replicate in tumors. Meanwhile, the delivery of the gene encoding human granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) may induce a more potent antitumor immune response.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion criteria
. The non-operative stage III or stage IV malignant tumor patients with clear diagnosis by pathology.
. Patients who have failed in conventional treatment (including PD-1 monotherapy) (disease progression or intolerance) or who have failed in previously assisted PD-1 monotherapy (last assisted PD-1 treatment relapse or metastasis within 6 months).
. Patients with Eastern Collaborative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status ≤ 1, expected survival time more than 3 months.
. Prior anti-tumor treatment (including endocrine, chemical/ radiotherapy,targeted therapy) was over 4 weeks (more than 6 weeks of discontinuation using nitroso-and mitomycin-based chemotherapy) and was recovered to grade 1 from the side effects of prior treatment.
. There is at least one measurable lesion that is suitable for intratumoral injection. The measured tumor focus is defined as the longest diameter ≥ 5 mm.
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.
What they're measuring
1
Evaluation of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of OH2 injection in combination with HX008 injection in patients with melanoma
. Asymptomatic central nervous system metastasis, or treated asymptomatic brain metastasis patients, must be examined by a computerized fault scan (CT) or MRI for disease-free progression, stable for at least 3 months, and at least 4 weeks without steroid medication.
. (a) WBC≥3.0×109／L，ANC≥2.0×109／L ，PLT≥100×109／L，Hb≥90 g/L； (b) BUN and Scr. were in the upper limit of 1.5 times of the normal value; (c) TBIL≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of the normal value. (d) ALT and AST ≤ 2.5 times the upper limit of normal value; The value of patients with liver metastasis did not exceed 5 times the upper limit of normal value. (e) Coagulation function is normal (PT and APPT are within 1.5 times of the upper limit of normal value).
. Female subjects and their spouses received effective contraceptives during and within 3 months of treatment.
Exclusion criteria
. Severe medical diseases, including severe heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, uncontrolled diabetes, uncontrolled hypertension, severe infection, active digestive tract ulcer, abnormal immune function (including, but not limited to, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus erythematosus, Sjogren's syndrome, etc.).
. Significant surgery is expected to be performed during the 28-day screening period during the study period.
. Patients had active infections or unexplained fevers (over 38.5℃)during screening and before the first drug use.
. Past or present immunodeficiency diseases.
. The lesions do not meet the requirements of injection capacity(1ml) in the tumor body.
. Pregnant or lactating women.
. Other experimental therapies or antiviral therapy are used or are being used within 4 weeks of treatment.
