A Phase 1, Open-Label Clinical Trial Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability and Immunogenicity of Intradermally Administered ID-LV305 in Patients With Locally Advanced, Relapsed, or Metastatic Cancer Expressing NY-ESO-1
This is a Phase 1 multi-center study to evaluate the clinical safety and immune response of
ID-LV305 when injected intradermally in patients with advanced cancer. ID-LV305 is a novel
immunotherapy agent designed to target dendritic cells and stimulate the body's immune system
to fight the spread and growth of cancer for patients whose tumors express the NY-ESO-1
protein. Patients with melanoma, sarcoma, ovarian cancer, or small cell lung cancer that
express NY-ESO-1 may be considered for the trial. Selected sites will be evaluating ID-LV305
with pembrolizumab for patients with melanoma who have inadequately responded to anti-PD-1
therapy.

with pembrolizumab for patients with melanoma who have inadequately responded to anti-PD-1
therapy.
ID-LV305 is an agent designed to specifically target dendritic cells within the patient and
induce them to stimulate and generate cytotoxic T cell responses against the NY-ESO-1
protein, a molecule which is often expressed in certain types of cancer cells. This is a
first in human study of ID-LV305. The primary purpose of the study is to determine what dose
ID-LV305 can be given safely to patients with advanced cancers that express NY-ESO-1 protein.
ID-LV305 will be administered by intradermal injection every three weeks times four doses.
The study will have two phases. In Part 1, Dose Escalation, which has been completed, three
sequentially enrolled cohorts of patients were treated at one of four dose levels of ID-LV305
using a standard escalation design. Followed by Part 2 expansion where an additional 27
subjects were enrolled. In Part 2SA, Site-specific Amendment, patients with unresectable
and/or metastatic melanoma with an inadequate response to anti-PD-1 MAb therapy, defined as
SD or PD using RECIST criteria following at least 2 months of therapy. Patients with PD have
a tumor measurement increase of <2-fold from the time of starting anti-PD-1 therapy, must not
be symptomatic or have worsening of Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance
status due to their disease progression, and cannot have new CNS lesion. Patients must also
meet the lactic acid dehydrogenase (LDH), ECOG status, and no tumor size criteria are used in
Part 2SA.

Inclusion Criteria:
- Locally advanced, relapsed, and/or metastatic cancer with low or minimal tumor burden
which may or may not be measurable; no tumor size criteria are used.
- Tumor histology consistent with melanoma tumor specimen positive for NY-ESO-1
expression by IHC and/or RT-PCR.
- b. In Part 2SA, patients with an inadequate response to anti-PD-1 mAb therapy, defined
as SD or PD using RECIST v1.1 criteria following at least 2 months of therapy.
Patients with PD have a tumor measurement increase of < 2 fold from the time of
starting anti-PD-1 therapy, must not have worsening of Eastern Cooperative Oncology
Group (ECOG) performance status due to their disease progression, and cannot have new
CNS lesion. Patients must also meet the lactic acid dehydrogenase (LDH) or ECOG
status. No tumor size criteria are used in Part 2SA.
- ≥ 18 years of age.
- Life expectancy of ≥ 6 months per the investigator.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
- ECG without evidence of clinically significant arrhythmia or ischemia.
- If female of childbearing potential (FCBP), willing to undergo pregnancy testing and
agrees to use at least one highly effective or two effective contraceptive methods
during the dosing period and for three months after last LV305 injection. If enrolled
on the arm that includes pembrolizumab, agrees to use highly effective contraceptive
methods during the dosing period and for 120 days after last injection of study drug.
- If male and sexually active with a FCBP, must agree to use highly effective
contraception such as latex condom during the dosing period and for three months after
last LV305 injection. If enrolled on the arm that includes pembrolizumab, agrees to
use highly effective contraceptive methods during the dosing period and for 120 days
after last injection of study drug.
