Plain-language summary
This clinical trial aims to determine whether the administration of the investigational drug OTS-412, OTS-412 in combination with hydroxyurea or hydroxyurea/atezolizumab is safe and effective for patients with various types of cancer.

Inclusion criteria
. 19 years of age or older
. Diagnosed with a malignant solid tumor via histology or cytology, although a radiological diagnosis is permissible for hepatocellular carcinoma
. Solid tumors that demonstrate limited response or resistant to SOC therapy, particularly when atezolizumab or other PD-L1 inhibitors, or PD-1 inhibitors are administered as monotherapy or in combination therapy. This may include, but not limited to, hepatocellular carcinoma, melanoma, renal cell carcinoma, urothelial carcinoma, biliary cancer, head and neck cancer, gastric cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and any solid tumor with microsatellite instability (MSI)-high status. At minimum, SOC treatment presented in the Protocol should have been received for each cancer type.
. Patients with tumors that have known actionable molecular alterations (i.e. EGFR, ALK, BRAF, etc) must have progressed on targeted therapy.
. Lesions that are deemed feasible for injection either directly (palpable subcutaneous tumors) or under ultrasound guidance (deep-seated tumors). Additionally, tumor(s) should not be adjacent or encasing vital structures such as major nerves or blood vessels, pericardium, gastrointestinal tract or other hollow organs, mucosal regions or spinal cord that could cause occlusion or compression in case of tumor swelling or erosion and major bleeding in the case of necrosis.
. At least one measurable (longest diameter, LD ≥1 cm) and injectable tumor that has not been previously received local treatment on computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
. The total volume of injectable tumor(s) should be 2 cm3 or more in 1x10E8 pfu dosing cohorts and 6 cm3 or more in 3x10E8 pfu dosing cohorts.
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
Incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) per National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) v5.0 or higher in OTS 412, OTS-412/HU combination, and OTS 412/HU/atezolizumab combination treatment
Timeframe: From enrollment to 180 days after the last dose of the study drugs.
. Patients who have previously received talimogene laherparepvec (Imlygic) or any other oncolytic virus, have received any systemic or local anti-cancer therapy for tumors within 4 weeks prior to the first administration of the study drugs(C1D1), or have not recovered from the adverse events due to these therapies to at least Grade 1 severity or returned to baseline levels prior to C1D1, with the exceptions of any grade of alopecia and Grade 2 neuropathy.
. Patients who have untreated symptomatic brain metastases, have treated brain metastases without evidence of stability or improvement on two scans at least two weeks apart, have leptomeningeal disease regardless of treatment, or have received anti-convulsants within the last 28 days.
. Tumors adjacent to vital neurovascular structures or at risk of airway compromise in the event of post injection tumor swelling, bleeding, or inflammation. Patients with tumors near vital structures can be enrolled as long as they have other lesions that are appropriate for injection (these tumors near vital structures will not be injected).
. History of other malignancies that developed within 5 years (However, cervical carcinoma in situ, basal cell carcinoma, or squamous cell skin cancer, and all cancers after 5 years since it was cured are acceptable.)
. History of organ transplant surgery
. Known significant immunodeficiency due to underlying illness (e.g., HIV/AIDS) and/or immune-suppressive medication including high-dose systemic corticosteroids (prednisone 20 mg/day or equivalent which is ongoing and/or was taken more than 4 weeks within the preceding 2 months of study treatment)
. History of or active autoimmune disease
. Ongoing severe inflammatory skin disease (as determined by the Investigator) requiring medical treatment or history of severe eczema (as determined by the Investigator) requiring prior medical treatment
