Biological: Personalized Synthetic Long Peptide Vaccine
Neoantigen synthetic long peptide vaccines are composed of synthetic long peptides which
are 8-35 amino acids in length and designed to induce immune responses to cancer
neoantigens identified by exome sequencing. Neoantigen synthetic long peptide vaccines
will be co-administered with poly-ICLC, an innate immune adjuvant capable of activating
TLR3 and other pathways.
Patients must satisfy the following criteria to be enrolled in the protocol:
Main Inclusion Criterion:
1. Patient who qualifies for treatment under 21 CFR 312.305 based on treating physician
judgment, inability to enroll in study JLF-200, must have received or be ineligible for
FDA-approved therapies for their specific cancer type, and an estimated 5-year survival
of less than 50%.
Other Inclusion Criteria:
1. >= 12 years of age.
2. ECOG performance status ≤ 2 or Karnofsky score of >=70.
3. Adequate organ function allowing favorable benefit to risk ratio per the treating
physician
4. Systemic corticosteroid therapy is permitted provided dosing is no greater than 4 mg
per day (dexamethasone or equivalent) on the day of vaccine administration.
5. Ability to understand and willingness to sign an IRB approved written informed
consent document.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. History of serious adverse reaction to vaccines such as anaphylaxis, hives, or
respiratory difficulty or known allergy to a component of the neoantigen synthetic
long peptide vaccine.
2. Intercurrent illness requiring chronic use of medications that may interfere with
rescue medications for treatment of vaccine-related anaphylaxis or attenuate immune
response to vaccine treatment (immunosuppressive therapies).
3. Psychiatric illness or social situations that would limit compliance with study
requirements.
4. History of pre-existing immunodeficiency disorder or autoimmune condition requiring
immunosuppressive therapy that would preclude response to vaccine. 5. Females of
childbearing potential may participate provided they agree to practice abstinence;
and, if heterosexually active, agree to use at least 2 highly effective
contraceptive methods throughout the study and for 3 months following the last dose
of study drug; and have a negative serum pregnancy test.
6. Females of non-childbearing potential must be post-menopausal or have been surgically
sterilized.
7. Male subjects with a female partner of childbearing potential must agree to practice
abstinence or to use a physician-approved contraceptive method throughout the study and
for 3 months following the last dose of study drug.
