A phase 1/2a, dose-escalation, safety, pharmacokinetic, and preliminary efficacy study of intraperitoneal administration of BC-819 (H19-DTA) in subjects with recurrent ovarian/peritoneal cancer
2017
Background
H19 is a paternally imprinted, oncofetal gene expressed in various embryonic tissues and in 85% of the ovarian tumors. H19-DTA (BC-819) is a DNA plasmid that drives the expression of the diphtheria toxin gene under the regulation of the H19 promoter sequence and therefore is a potential treatment for various tumors that overexpress the H19 gene, among them—ovarian cancer.
