Healthy Volunteers:No

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Percentage of patients who receive at least one dose of personalized neoantigen vaccine
Time Frame:9 months
Safety Issue:
Description:Percentage of patients that receive at least one dose of personalized neoantigen vaccine in the maintenance setting among the total number of patients who achieved disease response (eligible for vaccine generation).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Objective Response Rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1
Time Frame:2 years
Safety Issue:
Description:ORR is defined as the number of patients who are administered at least 1 dose of personalized neoantigen vaccine achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at any time during the study. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is >20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is <30% decrease or <20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Measure:Objective Response Rate (ORR) per iRECIST
Time Frame:2 years
Safety Issue:
Description:ORR is defined as the number of patients who are administered at least 1 dose of personalized neoantigen vaccine achieving a complete response (iCR) or partial response (iPR) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (Immune-related RECIST (iRECIST) at any time during the study. iCR = disappearance of all target lesions, iPR is =>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (iPD) is >20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (iSD) is <30% decrease or <20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Measure:Disease Control Rate (DCR)
Time Frame:2 months
Safety Issue:
Description:DCR is defined as the number of patients achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at 2 months post first vaccination. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is >20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is <30% decrease or <20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Measure:Disease Control Rate (DCR)
Time Frame:6 months
Safety Issue:
Description:DCR is defined as the number of patients achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at 6 months post first vaccination. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is >20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is <30% decrease or <20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Measure:Disease Control Rate (DCR)
Time Frame:12 months
Safety Issue:
Description:DCR is defined as the number of patients achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at 12 months post first vaccination. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is >20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is <30% decrease or <20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Measure:Progression-free Survival (PFS) per RECIST 1.1
Time Frame:4 years
Safety Issue:
Description:PFS is defined as the number of months from the date of first personalized vaccine dose to disease progression (progressive disease [PD] or relapse from complete response [CR] as assessed using RECIST 1.1 criteria) or death due to any cause. Per RECIST 1.1 criteria, CR = disappearance of all target lesions, Partial Response (PR) is =>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, Progressive Disease (PD) is >20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, Stable Disease (SD) is <30% decrease or <20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Measure:Progression-free Survival (PFS) per iRECIST
Time Frame:4 years
Safety Issue:
Description:PFS is defined as the number of months from the date of first personalized vaccine dose to disease progression (progressive disease [iPD] or relapse from complete response [iCR] as assessed using RECIST 1.1 criteria) or death due to any cause. Per iRECIST (iPFS) criteria, iCR = disappearance of all target lesions, Partial Response (iPR) is =>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, Progressive Disease (iPD) is >20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, Stable Disease (iSD) is <30% decrease or <20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Measure:Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame:4 years
Safety Issue:
Description:OS will be measured as the number of months from date of first personalized vaccine dose until death or end of follow-up (OS will be censored on the date the subject was last known to be alive for subjects without documentation of death at the time of analysis). Estimation based on the Kaplan-Meier curve.
