A Pilot Study Comparing Neoadjuvant and Adjuvant GVAX vs a Mutated KRAS Peptide Vaccine Given With Anti-PD-1 and Anti-CD137 for the Treatment of Surgically Resectable Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins
Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal dose of AGEN2373 that is safe when given in combination with balstilimab and Pancreatic GVAX Whole Cell Vaccine and evaluate the safety and clinical activity of balstilimab and AGEN2373 in combination with GVAX (Arm 1) or mKRASvax (Arm 2) in surgically resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Cycle 1 (14 days) is prior to surgical resection, Cycle 2 (14 days) is after surgery and prior to standard of care chemotherapy, and Cycles 3-6 (21 days) are given after completion of chemotherapy. 2. Drug: 450 mg IV
- DrugCyclophosphamide
1. 200 mg/m2 will be administered as a 30 minute IV infusion (-5/+15 min) on day 1 of each cycle for a total of 6 cycles of treatment. Cycle 1 (14 days) is prior to surgical resection, Cycle 2 (14 days) is after surgery and prior to standard of care chemotherapy, and Cycles 3-6 (21 days) are given after completion of chemotherapy. 2. Drug: 200 mg/m2 IV
- DrugGVAX
