Phase 1/2 Trial of a Combination Immunotherapy Treatment for Solid Tumors Including BreakVax ImmunoTreatment (Designed and Manufactured Per Patient), Chemotherapy and Anti PD-1 Therapy
BreakBio Corp
Summary
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and preliminary antitumor activity of this multi-component immunotherapy strategy in patients with advanced solid tumors. The study is designed to assess whether coordinated enhancement of antigen-specific T-cell priming and tumor microenvironment modulation can improve immune-mediated tumor control. In this study, BreakVax with adjuvants (Montanide and Poly-ICLC) is administered in combination with: 1. Low-dose subcutaneous ipilimumab at the injection site as a dendritic cell adjuvant to enhance local dendritic cell-mediated T-cell priming; 2. Pembrolizumab to mitigate PD-1-mediated T-cell exhaustion and sustain effector function; 3. Standard-of-care chemotherapy, which may promote immunogenic cell death, increase antigen release and modulate the tumor microenvironment; and 4. Losartan and aspirin, which have been associated in preclinical and translational studies with modulation of stromal architecture, vascular normalization, and reduction of tumor-associated immunosuppressive signaling. This is a Phase 1/2, multi-center, open-label single-arm clinical study in adult patients who have Glioblastoma (GBM). The study consists of two components: a Safety Lead-in Cohort and a combination therapy cohort. The Safety Lead-in Cohort is designed to evaluate safety and tolerability of the study combination and to characterize dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). The combination therapy cohort portion intends to evaluate the superiority of the study combination treatment vs the SOC chemotherapy, measured by OS at 12 months
