Immunotherapy for Advanced Liver Cancer

A multi-national, randomized, controlled trial (RCT) with multiple sites selected in Asia (Malaysia and Thailand). Subjects with no prior treatments for BCLC stage C disease and presenting with Child-Pugh class A or B liver reserve to be randomized 2:1 to AlloStim® vs. Physician's Choice (PC). PC to be declared prior to randomization. PC allowed to be either sorafenib, levantinib or FOLFOX4. The world incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is highest in East and South East Asia, with nearly half of the all HCC cases and deaths globally occurring in China. In Asian countries, the main treatment options for early or intermediate HCC (BCLC class A and B) include surgical resection, ablation (e.g., RFA, ETOH, cryoablation), transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), radiation or systemic chemotherapy depending on liver function status. However, in the Asian-Pacific region it is estimated that up to 80% of patients present with unresectable, advanced HCC (BCLC Stage C) that are not eligible for locoregional therapy, surgery or TACE due to tumor size and/or vascular involvement. For these patients, the standard of care for over a decade has been sorafenib (Bayer, A.G.), a oral kinase inhibitor based on the results of a RCT (SHARP study) of 602 patients randomized to sorafenib vs. placebo. Median overall survival (OS) was 10.7 months for sorafenib and 7.9 months for placebo (p<0.05). The SHARP study included a Western population. A separate study in Asian patients (226 patients from China, South Korea and Taiwan) comparing sorafenib to placebo (Sorafenib-AP study) demonstrated a OS of 6.5 months for sorafenib compared to 4.2 months for placebo (p<0.05). The placebo OS difference between Asian and Western patients (4.2mo vs 7.9 mo) suggests a difference in the disease characteristics in the Asian population. One significant difference is that the Asian population has an increased prevalence of HBV compared to Western population which may contribute to the increased incidence of HCC and worse OS outcomes observed in Asian patients compared to Western patients. In Thailand and Malaysia sorafenib is not available to a majority of the population presenting with advanced HCC, both due to cost and toxicity profile. This study is designed to evaluate whether AlloStim ® immunotherapy will provide a survival benefit to this population with an improved quality of life compared to approved first line therapy.

A Global Study to Assess the Effects of Durvalumab + Domvanalimab Following Concurrent Chemoradiation in Participants With Stage III Unresectable NSCLC

A Study of Guselkumab Administered Subcutaneously in Bio-naive Participants With Active Psoriatic Arthritis Axial Disease

PsA is a chronic inflammatory musculoskeletal disease that has 6 disease domains, and axial disease represents one of the domains. Guselkumab is a fully human immunoglobulin (Ig) G1 lambda monoclonal antibody (mAb) that by binding to the p19 protein subunit of interleukin (IL)-23, blocks the binding of extracellular IL-23 to the cell surface IL-23 receptor, inhibiting IL-23-mediated intracellular signaling, activation, and cytokine production. This study will consist of a screening phase (up to 6 weeks), a treatment phase (up to 48 weeks, including a placebo-controlled period from Week 0 to Week 24 and an active-controlled treatment phase from Week 24 to Week 48), and a safety follow-up phase (up to Week 60). The efficacy assessments will include assessment such as Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) score and the safety assessments will include evaluations of physical examinations, vital signs, electrocardiograms, clinical laboratory tests, and adverse events. The overall duration of the study will be up to 14 months.

TESTING -ON Post-Trial ObservatioNal Cohort Study

In the original TESTING study, the median follow-up for full vs reduced dose cohort was 6.1 vs 2.5 years. We learned from the TESTING trial that the composite endpoints (ESKD, 40% reduction in eGFR or death due to kidney disease) tend to start occurring 2-3 years after randomization. At the time of overall study completion, most of the reported endpoints had occurred in participants from the initial, full-dose TESTING cohort. Although we found the effect of corticosteroid is consistent in both doses, longer follow up is required to confirm the beneficial effects on clinically important renal outcomes of the apparently safer reduced reduced-dose cohort, and to confidently compare the effects across doses. As the trial is assessing the effects of a time-limited 6-9-month period of steroids, a post-trial observation cohort study is a critical, cost and resource-efficient method of answering a number of key questions: 1. Is the apparent benefit of glucocorticoid sustained over long term follow-up? 2. Does a lower dose of steroids safely produce similar benefits on long-term kidney outcomes? The primary aim of TESTING-ON is to extend follow up of TESTING study participants and to assess the long-term effects of a 6-9-month course of oral methylprednisolone on end stage kidney disease (ESKD), according to dose (full-dose vs reduced-dose), ethnicity (Chinese vs other) and kidney function (eGFR above and below 60 mL/min/1.73m2). The working hypothesis of TESTING-ON is that a 6-9-month course of oral methylprednisolone will lead to persistent benefits over a long period of time. TESTING-ON is a post-trial observational study of those participants randomized into the TESTING trial who are still alive, haven't reached ESKD and didn't withdraw consent during the trial. Follow-up will continue for up to five years, with further ongoing follow-up should funding allow.
