Interventions

  • M032 — BIOLOGICAL
    M032 is a genetically engineered type 1 herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) that has been demonstrated to be aneurovirulent secondary to deletions of both copies of the γ134.5 gene and modified to express human interleukin-12 (IL-12). Each patient will receive a single intratumoral injection of M032.

Study Details

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the safety and effects of M032 given directly into the tumor in children and adults with DMG and who have received standard-of-care radiation therapy.

Arms

  • Experimental: Adult: For Adult Patients Phase 1 Treatment with Single Injection of M032
    All patients in both disease cohorts (Cohort 1: Supratentorial DMG; Cohort 2: Pontine DMG) will be enrolled in this single-arm Phase 1 trial and will receive intratumoral administration of M032. Each patient will be treated with a single dose of M032 directly injected into the tumor. There is no placebo or comparator arm. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of M032 and to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). The two disease cohorts will be assessed independently.
  • Experimental: PED: For Pediatric Patients Phase 1 Treatment with Single Injection of M032
    All patients in both disease cohorts (Cohort 1: Supratentorial DMG; Cohort 2: Pontine DMG) will be enrolled in this single-arm Phase 1 trial and will receive intratumoral administration of M032. Each patient will be treated with a single dose of M032 directly injected into the tumor. There is no placebo or comparator arm. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of M032 and to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). The two disease cohorts will be assessed independently.
