Purpose

Approximately 36 DLT-evaluable subjects will be enrolled in this study. The locations of the study will be in the United States, Australia, Europe and Switzerland. The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety of intrahepatic injection (directly into the liver) of talimogene laherparepvec in combination with intravenously administered atezolizumab in subjects with triple negative breast cancer and colorectal cancer with liver metastases.

Detailed Description

      The Screening period is 28 days prior to study enrollment. This study has 2 Cohorts. Cohort
      1: Triple Negative Breast Cancer and Cohort 2: Colorectal Cancer. These cohorts will enroll
      in parallel. There will be a Safety Follow-up period and a Long Term Follow-up period.

      Drug Administration: The participants will receive the study drugs in cycles. If the
      participants are found to be eligible to take part in this study, they will receive
      talimogene laherparepvec as an injection into the hepatic (liver) metastatic sites on Day 1
      of each cycle along with receiving atezolizumab by intravenous infusion on Day 1 of each
      cycle. Each cycle is 21 days for 6 cycles. There is an option for an additional 6 cycles
      after the first 6 intra-hepatic cycles. After the first radiographic assessment at week 10,
      if all injectable liver lesions have been injected but the 4.0 mL maximum volume has not been
      used, injection of clinically assessed non-hepatic cutaneous, subcutaneous, and nodal tumor
      lesions with or without ultrasound guidance will be permitted. Liver lesions should be
      prioritized over cutaneous, subcutaneous and nodal lesions.

      Treatment will continue until a participant experiences a DLT (Dose Limiting Toxicity)
      evaluated in the DLT period (which is 2 cycles from initial dose), has CR (Complete
      Response), has need for an alternative anticancer therapy or experiences a safety concern.

      Study Visits: Cycle 1 to Cycle 12 - The participant will have a physical exam along with
      vital signs and ECOG (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) performance level assessment. Blood
      (about 2 Tablespoons) will be drawn for routine tests and to check the immune system. Adverse
      events and medications taken will be reviewed on each cycle.Biomarkers will be taken on
      cycles 1, 2, 3, 6, and safety FU. Tumor Markers (special lab tests associated with the
      cancer, such as particular proteins) will be completed will be take on cycles 1, 4, 7, 10,
      13, every 3 cycles and SFU.

      Central lab tests will be completed on cycles 1, 2, 3, and 6 and safety FU. Cycle 1 Archived
      (prior stored) tumor sample will be obtained. Also, a liver tumor biopsy will be completed at
      Cycles 1, 3 and 6.

      Response Assessments will be completed at Screening and again at Cycles 4, 7, 10, 13 and
      every 3 cycles.

      Throughout the trial a swab for Herpetic tumor will be obtained within 3 days of the event.

      Cycle 1 to 12- The exposure to talimogene laherparepvec by the subject's healthcare provider
      and household member caregiver will be reviewed. Cycles 1, 3, 6-Liver tumor biopsy will be
      completed. Cycles 4, 7, 10, 13 and every 3 cycles -Response assessments will be completed by
      radiographic and clinical tumor assessment.

      Length of Treatment:

      A maximum for 12 cycles of talimogene laherparepvec are allowed during the study. The
      participant may continue taking the study drug for as long as the doctor thinks it is in
      their best interest. The participant will no longer be able to take the study drug if the
      disease gets worse, or if they are unable to follow study directions.

      Safety Follow-up Visit:

      Safety Follow-up visit will be performed about 30 days after the last dose of study
      treatment.

      The participant will have a physical exam, have vital signs taken, assessment of ECOG status
      and have weight measured. Adverse events will be assessed as well as the concominant
      medications. Routine bloodwork and tumor markers will be taken.

      Exposure to talimogene laherparepvec by the healthcare providers of the participant and/or
      close contacts will be assessed.

      Long-Term Follow-up Visits: Participants will be followed for survival every 12 weeks from
      the date of the safety follow-up visit until approximately 24 months after the last subject
      is enrolled. Subsequent cancer treatments will be collected as part of the long-term
      follow-up survival assessment. This is an investigational study. The study doctor can explain
      how the study drugs are designed to work.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Number of Participants Who Experienced a Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT)
Time Frame:From Day 1 up to the start of Cycle 3 (each cycle is 21 days)
Safety Issue:
Description:Toxicities were graded using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0. A DLT was considered as any of the below, if judged by the investigator to be related to either treatment: Grade ≥ 4 neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count [ANC] < 500/μl) lasting ≥ 7 days Grade ≥ 3 febrile neutropenia Grade ≥ 4 thrombocytopenia Grade ≥ 4 anemia Grade ≥ 4 rash Serious herpetic events Grade ≥ 3 symptomatic hepatic toxicities that do not resolve to Grade ≤ 2 within 48 hours or Grade ≥ 3 asymptomatic hepatic toxicities that do not resolve to Grade ≤ 1 within 3 weeks of onset Grade ≥ 3 non-hematologic, non-hepatic organ toxicity Grade 5 toxicity (ie, death) Any other intolerable toxicity leading to permanent discontinuation of treatment DLTs were to occur within the DLT evaluation period, defined as the period between the initial 10^6 PFU/mL dose and 3 weeks following the initial 10^8 PFU/mL dose or the start of Cycle 3, whichever occurred first.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame:Every 12 weeks (± 28 days). Maximum overall time on-study (treatment + follow up) at data cut off was 32 months (TNBC cohort) and 19 months (CRC cohort).
Safety Issue:
Description:ORR was defined as the incidence rate of either a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on modified immune-related response criteria simulating Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors(irRC-RECIST) criteria. A CR was a complete disappearance of all lesions and a PR was a decrease in tumor burden 30% or more relative to baseline.
Measure:Best Overall Response (BOR)
Time Frame:Every 12 weeks (± 28 days). Maximum overall time on-study (treatment + follow up) at data cut off was 32 months (TNBC cohort) and 19 months (CRC cohort).
Safety Issue:
Description:BOR was defined as the best visit response based on modified irRC-RECIST criteria: CR: a complete disappearance of all lesions PR: a decrease in tumor burden 30% or more relative to baseline Stable disease (SD): neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for CR or PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD) PD: an increase in tumor burden of 20% or more and at least 5 mm absolute increase relative to nadir (minimum recorded tumor burden) Unevaluable (UE): any lesion present at baseline which was not assessed or was unable to be evaluated leading to an inability to determine the status of that particular tumor
Measure:Duration of Response (DOR)
Time Frame:Every 12 weeks (± 28 days). Maximum overall time on-study (treatment + follow up) at data cut off was 32 months (TNBC cohort) and 19 months (CRC cohort).
Safety Issue:
Description:DOR was defined as the time from the date of an initial response that is subsequently confirmed to the earlier of PD per modified irRC RECIST or death. Participants who have not ended their response at the time of analysis were censored at the last evaluable tumor assessment.
Measure:Lesion Level Response in Injected Tumor Lesions
Time Frame:Every 12 weeks (± 28 days). Maximum overall time on-study (treatment + follow up) at data cut off was 32 months (TNBC cohort) and 19 months (CRC cohort).
Safety Issue:
Description:Responses for individual tumor lesions for hepatic and non-hepatic tumors injected wtih treatment were assessed for the following responses: Lesion complete response rate (L-CRR): Disappearance of lesion Lesion partial response rate (L-PRR): Decrease in tumor burden 30% or more relative to baseline Lesion objective response rate (L-ORR): Either a L-CRR or L-PRR based on modified irRC-RECIST criteria
Measure:Lesion Level Response in Uninjected Tumor Lesions
Time Frame:Every 12 weeks (± 28 days). Maximum overall time on-study (treatment + follow up) at data cut off was 32 months (TNBC cohort) and 19 months (CRC cohort).
Safety Issue:
Description:Responses for individual tumor lesions for hepatic and non-hepatic tumors that were not injected with treatment were assessed for the following responses: L-CRR: Disappearance of lesion L-PRR: Decrease in tumor burden 30% or more relative to baseline L-ORR: Either a L-CRR or L-PRR based on modified irRC-RECIST criteria
Measure:Durable Response Rate (DRR)
Time Frame:Every 12 weeks (± 28 days). Maximum overall time on-study (treatment + follow up) at data cut off was 32 months (TNBC cohort) and 19 months (CRC cohort).
Safety Issue:
Description:DRR was defined as the percentage of participants with an objective response with a DOR of at least 6 months.
Measure:Disease Control Rate (DCR)
Time Frame:Every 12 weeks (± 28 days). Maximum overall time on-study (treatment + follow up) at data cut off was 32 months (TNBC cohort) and 19 months (CRC cohort).
Safety Issue:
Description:DCR was defined as the percentage of participants that have a best overall response in one of the following categories: CR/PR/SD.
Measure:Progression-free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame:Every 12 weeks (± 28 days). Maximum overall time on-study (treatment + follow up) at data cut off was 32 months (TNBC cohort) and 19 months (CRC cohort).
Safety Issue:
Description:PFS was defined as time from first dose to the date of first of confirmed disease progression per modified irRC-RECIST criteria, or death. Results were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Measure:Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame:Every 12 weeks (± 28 days). Maximum overall time on-study (treatment + follow up) at data cut off was 32 months (TNBC cohort) and 19 months (CRC cohort).
Safety Issue:
