Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Patients with high risk, locally advanced histologically confirmed (non-metastatic, node negative, single or multifocal), BCC and amenable to intratumoral injection, not eligible or refusing surgery or radiation therapy according to the evaluation of a local interdisciplinary tumor board.
  • ECOG Performance Status/WHO Performance Status ≤ 1.
  • Hemoglobin > 10.0 g/dL.
  • Platelets > 100 x 109/L.
  • ALT and AST, GGT and Lipase ≤ 1.5 x the upper limit of normal (ULN).
  • All acute toxic effects (excluding alopecia) of any prior therapy must have resolved to National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE v. 5.0) Grade ≤ 1 unless otherwise specified

You likely can't join if

  • Presence of concomitant malignancies, with the exception of any cancer curatively treated more than 3 years prior to study entry and of tumors with a negligible risk for metastasis or death, such as adequately treated squamous-cell carcinoma of the skin
  • Known arterial aneurysms.
  • INR > 3.
  • Uncontrolled hypertension.
  • Known uncontrolled coagulopathy or bleeding disorder.
  • Known hepatic cirrhosis or severe pre-existing hepatic impairment.

  • All acute toxic effects (excluding alopecia) of any prior therapy must have resolved to National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE v. 5.0) Grade ≤ 1 unless otherwise specified
  • Patients must have previously received radiotherapy for their locally advanced BCC, unless it was contraindicated or not appropriate
  • Patients with at least one injectable and measurable cutaneous or subcutaneous lesion.
  • Patients must not have received prior checkpoint inhibitors systemic treatment
  • Patients may have received prior surgery and/or radiation therapy.
  • Patients must have a histologically confirmed disease
  • BCC that has recurred in the same location after two or more surgical procedures and curative resection is deemed unlikely
  • Anticipated substantial morbidity and/or deformity from surgery
  • Medical conditions predisposing to poor surgical outcome
  • Other conditions considered to be medically contraindicating must be discussed with the Medical Monitor before enrolling the patient.
What rules you out
  • Presence of concomitant malignancies, with the exception of any cancer curatively treated more than 3 years prior to study entry and of tumors with a negligible risk for metastasis or death, such as adequately treated squamous-cell carcinoma of the skin
  • Known arterial aneurysms.
  • INR > 3.
  • Uncontrolled hypertension.
  • Known uncontrolled coagulopathy or bleeding disorder.
  • Known hepatic cirrhosis or severe pre-existing hepatic impairment.
  • Radiation therapy on the tumor sites in the 4 weeks prior to study drug administration.
  • Current topical or systemic chemotherapy, targeted therapy immunotherapy
  • Patients with node positive BCC who are candidates for checkpoint inhibitor therapy
  • Presence of visceral metastasis.
  • Presence of active serious infections or other severe conditions requiring treatment, including positive tests for HIV-1/2, HBV, or HCV. For HBV, HBsAg and anti-HBc must be tested; if previously exposed, HBV-DNA must be negative. For HCV, HCV-RNA or antibody testing is required
  • History within the last year of acute or subacute coronary syndromes including myocardial infarction, unstable or severe stable angina pectoris, inadequately treated cardiac arrhythmias and heart insufficiency
  • Any abnormalities observed during baseline ECG investigations that are considered clinically significant by the investigator.
  • Chronically impaired renal function as indicated by creatinine clearance < 60 mL/min/1.73m2 or for patients older than 65 years without albuminuria or proteinuria, creatinine clearance < 45 mL/min/1.73m2.
