Summary

Background:

Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a rare disease caused by human papillomavirus. It can cause voice changes, airway compromise, pulmonary lesions, and cancers. Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is a protein on cells. It may be able to stop or decrease the immune system s response to viruses such as human papillomavirus. The drug Avelumab interferes with the activity of PD-L1. Researchers want to see if Avelumab treats RRP and study its side effects.

Objective:

To see if Avelumab works in treating RRP and is safe.

Eligibility:

People ages 18 and older with aggressive RRP that has not responded to available treatments

Design:

Participants will be screened with:

Medical history

Previously collected tumor tissue

Physical exam

Blood, urine, and heart tests

Endoscopy procedure: A small tube with a camera is used to look in the nose, throat, larynx, and upper windpipe.

Before starting treatment, participants will have:

Endoscopy under anesthesia. A sample of papilloma will be taken.

Voice handicap questionnaire

Computed tomography (CT) scans

Apheresis: An intravenous (IV) is inserted into an arm vein. White blood cells are separated from the rest of the blood and stored for research. The rest of the blood is returned through the same IV or one in the other arm.

Participants will get the study drug by IV every 2 weeks for up to 12 weeks.

Participants will repeat the previous tests throughout the study.

If they respond to treatment, participants will be evaluated every 6 weeks (3 times), then every 12 weeks (3 times), then every 26 weeks (2 times) until their disease progresses.

Participants will be evaluated 30 days after their last infusion. They will then be contacted annually.
