A Vaccine (MV-s-NAP) for the Treatment of Patients With Invasive Metastatic Breast Cancer (NCT04521764)

Phase I Trial of Intratumoral Administration of a Measles Virus Derivative Expressing the Helicobacter Pylori Neutrophil-Activating Protein (NAP) (MV-s-NAP) in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Phase1 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Mayo Clinic

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This phase I trial investigates the side effects and best dose of using a modified measles virus, MV-s-NAP, in treating patients with invasive breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Both the unmodified vaccination measles virus (MV-Edm) and this modified virus (MV-s-NAP) have been shown to multiply in and destroy breast cancer cells in the test tube and in research mice. MV-s-NAP has been altered by having an extra gene (piece of deoxyribonucleic acid \[DNA\]) so that virus can make a protein called helicobacter pylori neutrophil activating protein (NAP) which is normally expressed in inflammatory reactions. Monitoring blood, urine, tissue, and throat swab samples, and using imaging tests may help to determine whether MV-s-NAP has any impact on the amount of disease present in metastatic breast cancer patients.
