Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, STP705, for safety and effectiveness in treating cholangiocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, or liver metastasis.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with advanced or inoperable cholangiocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, or solid tumors with liver metastases that don't respond to standard treatments. Participants must have a life expectancy of at least 3 months, acceptable organ function, no more than 7 liver lesions, and be able to receive injections directly into the tumor. They should not have had recent major surgeries or certain medical conditions like severe heart disease.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests STP705 given directly into liver tumors. It's an open-label trial meaning everyone knows what treatment they're getting. The goals are to find the highest dose patients can take without serious side effects (MTD) and decide on a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of STP705 aren't listed here, common ones from intratumoral cancer therapies include pain at injection site, inflammation around the tumor area, fever-like symptoms such as chills and fatigue; potential allergic reactions; and general discomfort.

5Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Cohort 5: STP705 320 μg doseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Intratumoral injection, administered as a single agent on Day 1,8 and 15 of a 28-day cycle. If the patient is deriving clinical benefit from the agent it may be continued and will be administered on Day 1 of each successive cycle.
Group II: Cohort 4: STP705 160 μg doseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Intratumoral injection, administered as a single agent on Day 1,8 and 15 of a 28-day cycle. If the patient is deriving clinical benefit from the agent it may be continued and will be administered on Day 1 of each successive cycle.
Group III: Cohort 3: STP705 80 μg doseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Intratumoral injection, administered as a single agent on Day 1,8 and 15 of a 28-day cycle. If the patient is deriving clinical benefit from the agent it may be continued and will be administered on Day 1 of each successive cycle.
Group IV: Cohort 2: STP705 40 μg doseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Intratumoral injection, administered as a single agent on Day 1,8 and 15 of a 28-day cycle. If the patient is deriving clinical benefit from the agent it may be continued and will be administered on Day 1 of each successive cycle.
Group V: Cohort 1: STP705 20 μg doseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Intratumoral injection, administered as a single agent on Day 1,8 and 15 of a 28-day cycle. If the patient is deriving clinical benefit from the agent it may be continued and will be administered on Day 1 of each successive cycle.
