RZ-001: Recombinant adenovirus harboring the modified ribozyme construct with HSV-tk as a therapeutic transgene
VGCV: VGCV, used in a subject after RZ-001 administration, is a nucleoside analog that is metabolized by HSV-tk and other cellular kinases to form the cytotoxic nucleotide analog ganciclovir triphosphate. An approved oral VGCV will be used in the proposed clinical study of RZ-001.
Study summary
This is a Phase 1/2a, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and preliminary clinical activity of RZ-001 administered in combination with VGCV in subjects with hTERT-positive GBM.
