This Phase 1 trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, anti-tumor activity and pharmacodynamic effects of SL-172154 when administered as an intratumoral injection (ITI) and identify the dose and schedule i.e., recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for future development.
The study design consists of four sequential dose-escalation cohorts and an optional pharmacodynamic cohort to obtain additional pharmacodynamic data at one or more dose levels that have completed evaluation for safety without exceeding the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Patients will be injected with SL-172154 on days 1, 8 and 15 during cycle 1, and then day 1 of each subsequent 21 day cycle.

Our phone-based research recruitment app has features updates and a new look! It is available to all UC Cancer Center members and outside colleagues to aid in patient recruitment into cancer and other research studies.
Have you ever wanted to discuss research participation with a patient, but didn’t have the necessary study information at your fingertips to do so? The UC Cancer Center has partnered with High Enroll, LLC, to provide a valuable tool to solve this problem. This new phone-based application is available for all UC and non-UC referring providers. The new app allows for the entire recruiting portfolio of UC Cancer Center studies to always be updated by the research team. For each study, a summary, inclusion and exclusion criteria, other pertinent study information, and a “one-touch” contact button for the primary research coordinator are included
It takes only seconds to get the new app. On your phone, simply go to https://ctra.highenroll.org. Add the app to your home screen for quick and easy use. Please delete all other prior versions of the app.
If you have any questions, please research out to your UC Cancer Center research team or High Enroll members, Dr. Dylan Steen @ 908-208-6927, dlsteen@highenroll.org or Ginger Conway @859-992-5339, gaconway@highenroll.org.

A new combination for cancer treatment
A UC study, led by Christina Wicker, a postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Vinita Takiar, MD, PhD, found an approved drug could make radiation therapy more effective for head and neck cancer. Using animal models, researchers found that the drug alone reduced the growth of head and neck cancer cells up to 90%, and it also increased the efficacy of radiation in animals with head and neck tumors by 40%
