Summary

Glioblastoma is the most common and the most aggressive primary brain cancer in adults. Indeed, despite very intensive treatments (i.e. maximal safe surgery, radiotherapy and several lines of cytotoxic chemotherapies), inducing significant adverse events, the prognosis of glioblastoma patients remains dismal with a median overall survival of \~15 months. Therefore, more efficient and less toxic therapies are urgently needed to improve survival and quality of life of glioblastoma patients.

The oncolytic virus TG6002 has shown efficacy and good safety profile in several preclinical models of glioblastoma in vitro (i.e. cell line) and in vivo (i.e. xenografts in Swiss/Nude mice). Comprehensive toxicology studies of TG6002/Flucytosine have been completed in rabbits and monkeys supporting safety investigations of TG6002/Flucytosine in human patients.

Taken these data all together, TG6002/Flucytosine appears as a very promising therapeutic strategy in glioblastoma patients that merits consideration for early phase clinical trial.

DRUG

Combination of TG6002 and 5-flucytosine (5-FC, Ancotil®)

Phase 1, TG6002 administered in a total volume of 250mL of saline solution (0.9 %) as three intravenous infusions at the following doses: * Dose 1 : 5.0 log10 pfu •Dose 2 : 6.0 log10 pfu •Dose 3 : 7.0 log10 pfu •Dose 4 : 7.5 log10 pfu * Dose 5 : 8.0 log10 pfu •Dose 6 : 8.5 log10 pfu Additional dose levels •Dose 2-1 : 5.5 log10 pfu •Dose 3-2 : 6.5 log10 pfu Phase 2a, treatment IV at the recommended Phase 2 dose 5-Flucytosine (5-FC) is provided in its commercial packaging with brand name ANCOTIL 500 mg, tablet (Ancotil®) marketed by MEDA Pharma: polypropylene tube containing 100 tablets. 5-FC administered orally as 500 mg tablets taken 4 times per day (qid). Daily starting dose is 200 mg/kg. The daily dose will be adjusted at Day 19 following the measurement of 5-FC plasma concentration at steady state (Day 7), which should be kept below 100 mg/L.
