A Phase 1 Dose Escalation Study of Reolysin, a Replication Competent Reovirus, in Pediatric Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase II dose of
wild-type reovirus (Reolysin) in children with relapsed or refractory solid tumors.

II. To define and describe the toxicities of Reolysin in these patients. III. To define the
toxicity and tolerability of combining Reolysin with oral cyclophosphamide in these
patients.

IV. To characterize the pharmacokinetics (time course of viral clearance) of Reolysin in
children with refractory cancer.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To define the antitumor activity of Reolysin within the confines of a phase I study.

II. To evaluate the development of neutralizing antibodies to Reolysin following intravenous
administration of Reolysin alone and in combination with cyclophosphamide.

III. To assess the biologic activity of Reolysin.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of wild-type reovirus (Reolysin).

Patients receive Reolysin IV over 60 minutes once daily on days 1-5. Some patients also
receive oral cyclophosphamide on days 1-21. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 12
courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up periodically for up to 1 year.


Inclusion Criteria:

prolong survival with an acceptable quality of life

the safety monitoring requirements of the study
