Brief Summary:
Evaluation of the mechanism of Action of talimogene laherparepvec (T-VEC) in patients with locally advanced non-melanoma skin cancer.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Non-melanoma Skin Cancer Basal Cell Carcinoma Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cutaneous Lymphoma Merkel Cell Carcinoma Genetic: Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC) Phase 1

Detailed Description:
This study evaluates the administration of T-VEC in non-melanoma skin cancer. The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of T-VEC in patients with non-melanoma skin cancer through determination of local immune effects after repeated T-VEC injections.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC)
Intralesional injections of T-VEC up to 4.0 mL of 10 to the 6 plaque-forming Units/mL (PFU/mL)

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from Baseline local immune effects after repeated T-VEC injections [ Time Frame: at baseline, after 3 injections (week 6) and optionally after 6 injections (week 12) ]
    Detection of increased local immune activation markers in skin biopsies of injected lesions. The following markers will be assessed by Polymerase chain reaction (PCR): interferon (IFN), 2-prime, 5-prime oligoadenylate synthetase 1 (OAS1), Interferon-induced GTP-binding protein MxA (MXA) and C-X-C motif chemokine 11 (CXCL11)


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Detection of Tumor Regression using World Health Organization (WHO) response criteria [ Time Frame: at baseline and at week 22 ]
    Measurement of the treated tumor size will be performed at baseline and at each visit until end of the study

  2. Systemic immune response [ Time Frame: at baseline and week 6, optionally also at week 12 ]
    Detection of increased systemic immune Response markers in sera and peripheral blood mononuclear cells by multi-Color fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS)

  3. Analysis of Adverse events [ Time Frame: At week 1, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 22 ]
    All serious and non-serious adverse events that occur after enrollment through 30 (+7) days after the last administration of T-VEC will be recorded
