CAN1012 in Pre-Malignant DCIS and LCIS
What this study is about
This is a Phase I/Ib study evaluating CAN1012 in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ and lobular carcinoma in situ.
View original scientific description
This is a Phase I/Ib study evaluating CAN1012 in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ and lobular carcinoma in situ.
Interventions
DRUG
CAN1012
CAN1012 is a IFN-a biased, long-acting, highly selective TLR7 agonist, which acts as an immune modulator capable of priming both innate and adaptive immunity against tumors. CAN1012 will be administered as an injection directly into the target lesion prior to surgery.
Primary outcome measures
Safety of CAN1012
Time frame: Post-operative follow-up visit (30 days after surgery)
Safety will be measured by demonstrating that there is a less than 33% rate of delayed surgery attributable to the study treatment.
Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- Male or female patients with DCIS or LCIS found on core biopsy.
- Tumor types allowed: Biopsy-identified DCIS or LCIS comprising a single lesion ≥ 1 cm and ≤ 5 cm in size by imaging (mammogram or MRI or ultrasound (US)) without evidence of invasive disease on the biopsy and US negative for suspicious ipsilateral lymph nodes.
- Age 18 years or above with ability to give informed consent, comply with the protocol, and sign a study-specific consent document.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1 deemed suitable by investigator or designee for requirements of study.
- Laboratory values within 72 hours of Day 0:
- WBC ≥ 2.0 K/µL, ANC ≥ 1.0 K/µL
- Hgb ≥ 10 g/dL
- Platelets ≥ 100,000 K/µL
- Creatinine Clearance (using Cockcroft-Gault) ≥ 60.
- AST/ALT ≤ 2.5 x ULN
- Total bilirubin ≤ 3 x ULN, (except subjects with Gilbert's Syndrome, who must have a total bilirubin less than 3.0 mg/dL)
- Negative pregnancy test for people of childbearing potential (bHCG urine or serum)
- Patients and their partners who are capable of conceiving must agree to use effective methods of contraception (non-hormonal only) during the course of treatment and for 165 days after last dose of CAN1012.
Exclusion criteria
- Any serious underlying medical or psychiatric condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would pose a risk to patient safety or interfere with the study procedures, completion, or evaluation.
- Need for corticosteroids ≥ 10mg prednisone daily equivalent; inhaled steroids are acceptable.
- Need for hormonal contraception including oral contraceptives, implant, injectable depots, vaginal rings, skin patches, and the progestin IUD; or any medication that is a sensitive substrate of the major CYPs.
- History of or current active autoimmune diseases which, in the judgment of the investigator, pose an active and significant risk. Vitiligo, lichen planus or lichenoid inflammation, and adequately controlled endocrine deficiencies such as hypothyroidism/hyperthyroidism are not exclusionary.
- Previous history of bone marrow transplantation or oral Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD).
- Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy. Investigator may allow if deemed not clinically significant.
- Has active or uncontrolled Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, or HIV with AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome)- defined opportunistic infection.
- Has a known history of Hepatitis B (defined as Hepatitis B surface antigen \[HBsAg\] reactive) or known history of Hepatitis C virus (defined as HCV RNA) infection. Testing for Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C is not required unless mandated by local health authority.
- Has a baseline electrocardiogram (ECG) with a prolonged QTc interval \> 480 msec. Medications which have a known and clinically significant risk of QT prolongation may be allowed per investigator discretion.
- Patients who have had a history of acute diverticulitis, intra-abdominal abscess, GI obstruction and abdominal carcinomatosis which are known risk factors for bowel perforation, and in the judgment of the investigator still pose an active risk.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
