Interventions
IT administration of ANK-101 once every 3 weeks for 2 cycles, followed by surgical resection

Exclusion criteria
1. Have AJCC Stage IV disease, known distant metastasis, or findings on imaging that are considered to be highly suspicious for distant metastasis. 2. Have injectable tumors impinging upon major airways or blood vessels. 3. Have had prior treatment with recombinant interleukin-12 (IL-12). 4. Have had prior radiation therapy within 28 days for CSCC at the site of injection. 5. Have received live vaccines within 28 days prior to the start of study drug (C1D1). 6. Have any history of transplant-related deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) viral infections, such as human polyomavirus 1 (BKV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), or cytomegalovirus (CMV) within 3 months of C1D1. 7. Have primary or acquired immunodeficient states (e.g., leukemia, lymphoma) requiring active therapy. 8. A WOCBP who has a positive serum pregnancy test prior to C1D1 or female participant who is breastfeeding 9. Have known active uncontrolled hepatitis B, hepatitis C (HCV), or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. 10. Have active autoimmune disease or medical conditions requiring chronic steroid (i.e., ≥ 20 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) or other immunosuppressive therapy beyond that required for maintenance allograft rejection prevention. 11. Have congestive heart failure, active coronary artery disease, unevaluated new onset angina, unstable angina, or clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias. 12.

Have other systemic conditions or organ abnormalities that may interfere with the conduct the current study. 15. Have any acute or chronic psychiatric problems or substance abuse disorder that make the participant unsuitable for participation.
