Intratumoral and s.c. injection of inactivated hemagglutinating virus of Japan envelope (GEN0101) in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT: Inactivated hemagglutinating virus of Japan envelope (HVJ-E) has an antitumor effect and tumor immunity. We undertook an open-label, phase I, dose-escalation study in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) to determine the safety and efficacy of intratumoral and s.c. injection of HVJ-E (GEN0101). Patients with CRPC, who were resistant to or unable to receive standard of care, were included. GEN0101 was injected directly into the prostate and s.c. in two 28-day treatment cycles. The primary end-points were to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GEN0101 and determine its recommended dose. The secondary end-points were to analyze the antitumor effect and tumor immunity. Three patients received 30 000 mNAU GEN0101 and 6 received 60 000 mNAU. There was no dose-limiting to
