Liver CancerPhase 2Stage IIIStage IV

This study is to determine whether JX-594 (Pexa-Vec) plus best supportive care is more effective in improving survival than best supportive care in patients with advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) who have failed sorafenib.

Conditions: Hepatocellular Carcinoma, Liver Cancer, HCC

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Diagnosis of primary HCC by tissue biopsy (histological/cytological diagnosis), or clinical diagnosis
  • Previously treated with sorafenib for ≥ 14 days and has discontinued sorafenib treatment at least 14 days prior to randomization due to either intolerance or radiographic progression NOTE: Sorafenib is NOT required to be the most recent treatment received for HCC
  • ECOG performance status 0, 1 or 2
  • Child-Pugh Class A; or Child-Pugh Class B7 without clinically significant ascites
  • Hematocrit ≥30% or Hemoglobin ≥10 g/dL
  • Tumor status: Measurable viable tumor in the liver and injectable under imaging-guidance; At least one tumor in the liver that has not received prior local-regional treatment OR that has exhibited \>25% growth in viable tumor size since prior local-regional treatment.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Received sorafenib within 14 days prior to randomization
  • Received systemic anti-cancer therapy other than sorafenib within 28 days of randomization
  • Prior treatment with JX-594
  • Platelet count \< 50,000 PLT/ mm3
  • Total white blood cell count \< 2,000 cells/mm3
  • Prior or planned organ transplant
  • Known significant immunodeficiency due to underlying illness (e.g. HIV/AIDS) and/or medication
  • Severe or unstable cardiac disease
  • Viable CNS malignancy associated with clinical symptoms
  • Pregnant or nursing an infant
