Study Summary

The purpose of this research study is to determine whether JX-594 (Pexa-Vec) has significant anti-tumoral activity and tolerability in primary hepatocellular carcinoma and to determine the dose to be used in further testing.

Primary Outcome

Proportion of subjects achieving disease control at 8 weeks based on a modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors v1.0 (mRECIST). Per mRECIST for target lesions as assessed by dynamic contrast enhanced dynamic MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all tumor(s); Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of longest diameter (LD) of tumor(s) taking as reference the baseline sum; Stable Disease (SD), any cases that do not qualify for PR or progressive disease (PD); PD, any
