Summary

This Phase 2, multi-center, single-arm study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and activity of neoadjuvant PRTX007 in combination with pembrolizumab in participants with resectable Stage III melanoma. Neoadjuvant immunotherapy has demonstrated improved clinical outcomes compared with adjuvant-only approaches, but there remains a need to enhance pathologic response rates without significant added toxicity.

Participants will receive oral PRTX007, a Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) agonist prodrug, administered in combination with intravenous pembrolizumab prior to surgical resection. The primary objective is to determine the major pathologic response (MPR) rate following neoadjuvant therapy. Secondary objectives include evaluation of safety, pathologic complete response, event-free survival, overall survival, pharmacokinetics, and immune-related biomarkers.

This study aims to determine whether the addition of PRTX007 to pembrolizumab improves antitumor immune responses and clinical outcomes in patients with Stage III melanoma.

DRUG

Pembrolizumab

Pembrolizumab is a programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) blocking antibody administered by intravenous infusion NEOADJUVANT REGIMEN * 200 mg IV every 3 weeks (Q3W) * Total of 3 cycles (9 weeks) ADJUVANT REGIMEN * 400 mg IV every 6 weeks (Q6W) for 7 cycles OR * 200 mg IV every 3 weeks (Q3W) for 14 cycles * Total duration: approximately 42 weeks
