Treatment Arms

ArmTypeDescription
Arm A- rQNestinEXPERIMENTALArm A is rQNestin34.5v.2 treatment This study follows a standard 3+3 dose escalation design. Participants will not enroll to Arm B until the MTD or HTD has been met for Arm A. * Subjects with presumed radiologic evidence of recurrent malignant glioma will undergo stereotactic biopsy under monitored general or local anesthesia. Evidence of recurrent high grade or malignant must be found on frozen section for the person to receive administration of the agent. * rQNestin34.5v.2 Indicated dose as per cohort, Intratumor administration during surgery, single dose
Arm B- rQNestin+CPAEXPERIMENTALArm B is rQNestin34.5v.2 treatment with Cyclophosphamide (CPA) pre-treatment This study follows a standard 3+3 dose escalation design. Participants will not enroll to Arm B until the MTD or HTD has been met for Arm A. * Cyclophosphamide one intravenous injection 2 days prior to procedure. * Subjects with presumed radiologic evidence of recurrent malignant glioma will undergo stereotactic biopsy under monitored general or local anesthesia. Evidence of recurrent high grade or malignant must be found on frozen section for the person to receive administration of the agent. * rQNestin34.5v.2 Indicated dose as per cohort, Intratumor administration during surgery, single dose
Arm C- Multiple Dose rQNestinEXPERIMENTALArm C includes up to 6 intratumoral repeated doses of rQNestin34.5v.2, first in a cohort receiving 10\^8 pfus per time point, followed by a cohort receiving 10\^9 or 10\^7 pfus per time point. * Arm C adds 2 cohorts of 12 subjects in an open-label clinical trial of rQNestin34.5v.2 administered at two dose levels * The injections are planned for days 0, 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 * Subjects with presumed radiologic evidence of recurrent malignant glioma will undergo stereotactic biopsy under monitored general or local anesthesia. Evidence of recurrent high grade or malignant must be found on frozen section for the person to receive administration of the agent.

Interventions

NameTypeDescription
rQNestinDRUGrQNestin is an oncolytic viral vector. It is administered via intratumoral injection during biopsy surgery.
CyclophosphamideDRUGCyclophosphamide is an immunomodulating agent. It is administered intravenously in a single dose 2 days (+/- 6 hrs) before surgery.
Stereotactic biopsyPROCEDUREIn both arms, subjects will undergo standard of care stereotactic biopsy in the intraoperative MRI operating room. The stereotactic needle will be placed stereotactically into the tumor bed using intraoperative MRI guidance to collect the biopsy, and again to administer the rQNestin oncolytic virus.
