Brief Summary:

This study evaluates intratumoral administration of CV8102 in patients with advanced melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, or adenoid cystic carcinoma.

Patients will receive CV8102 as single agent or in combination with SoC anti-PD-1 therapy.

  2. Incidence of treatment related (Serious) Adverse Events (Tolerability and Safety profile) [ Time Frame: up to 12 months (end of study) ]
    • Tolerability and safety profile of CV8102 alone and in combination with anti-PD-1 antagonists


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Tumor response [ Time Frame: up to 12 months (end of study) ]
    • Anti-tumor activity of CV8102 per irRECIST and RECIST 1.1

  2. Disease status [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    • Tumor Assessment

  3. Tumor response [ Time Frame: up to 12 months (end of study) ]
    • Extent of tumor response at injected and non-injected lesions, if applicable

  4. Survival [ Time Frame: up to 12 months (end of study) ]
    • Survival time

    • cutaneous melanoma Cohort B3: Willing to undergo baseline and post-baseline biopsy of the lesion which is to be injected
  2. Patients enrolled into Cohort C (CV8102 in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy) must have

  3. Patients enrolled into Cohort D1 (CV8102 in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy) must have

    • histologically confirmed advanced cMEL
    • either anti-PD-1 naive patients with indication for anti-PD-1 therapy (Cohort D1a) or patients refractory to anti-PD-1 therapy (Cohort D1b)
    • Presence of measurable lesion(s) according to RECIST 1.1, not intended for injection
    • Willing to undergo tumor biopsies at specific timepoints (Cohort D1a: baseline; Cohort D1b baseline and post-baseline biopsy of the injected lesion - only for selected sites)
