Study summary

SV-102 is intended to overcome the complex and multifactorial nature of the mechanisms mediating tumor immune evasion, by the use of a combination of therapeutic agents that elicit multiple immuno-pharmacologic effects.

Read the detailed description

SV-102 is intended for immunotherapeutic treatment of solid tumors in certain metastatic cancer indications. SYNC-T™ technology encompasses methods and compositions that mediate multiple pharmacologic effects aimed at mounting a synchronized and multi-faceted antitumor immune response. The first component of SYNC-T™ is aimed at eliciting in situ immunization by triggering the lysis and immunogenic cell death of tumor cells, followed by the release of tumor-specific or tumor-associated antigens (TSA/TAAs) and danger associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) into the tumor microenvironment. The main approach that will be used by SYNC-T™ will rely on partial and targeted local cryolysis of tumor cells mediated by a cryolysis device. The second component of SYNC-T™ technology is the intratumoral infusion of a low-dose multi-component drug product.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Has a known other primary malignancy other than prostate cancer that is progressing or has required active treatment in the last 3 years, excluding basal and squamous cell carcinoma, papillary thyroid cancer, and ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast
  2. Has an obstructed urinary system before or after stenting
  3. Has undergone major surgery, including local prostate intervention (excluding prostate biopsy), within 28 days prior to the first dose of study drug and has not recovered adequately from the toxicities and/or complications
  4. Has an active infection (including tuberculosis) requiring systemic therapy
  5. Has a history of non-infectious pneumonitis that required steroids
  6. Has received a live vaccine within 30 days prior to the enrollment Is currently participating in or has participated in a study of an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 28 days prior to the first treatment
  7. Significant cardiac or other medical illness such as severe congestive heart failure, unstable angina, or serious cardiac arrhythmia (e.g. New York Heart Association Class 4), or history of previous heart failure
  8. Malignant pleural effusions or ascites that require immediate intervention
  9. Prior history of autoimmune disease except hypothyroidism, uncontrolled or unmanaged diabetes, cardiac arrhythmia (unstable or untreated), hypersensitivity, or other illness or disease that in the opinion of the Principal Investigator, with consultation with Syncromune's Chief Medical Officer, makes the subject a poor candidate.
  10. Any primary or acquired immunodeficiency
  11. Active COVID infection or tests positive for COVID day before or day of planned treatment
  12. Known or suspected hepatitis B if active infection (subjects with chronic hepatitis B infection must have an undetectable Hepatitis B virus (HBV) viral load on suppressive therapy, if indicated; positive surface antibody alone is not an exclusion)

  14. Any condition(s) that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would increase the risk for toxicities from study drug, interfere with subject compliance or conduct of this study.
