Overview

NCI Definition [1]:
A cancer vaccine containing a live-attenuated strain of the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) encoding human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 E7 fused to a non-hemolytic listeriolysin O protein with potential immunostimulatory and antineoplastic activities. Upon vaccination with axalimogene filolisbac, Listeria expresses the HPV 16 E7 antigen and activates the immune system to mount a cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response against cancer cells expressing HPV 16 E7. This may result in tumor cell lysis. In addition, the Listeria vector itself may induce a potent immune response. HPV 16 E7, a cell surface glycoprotein and tumor associated antigen, is overexpressed in the majority of cervical cancer cells.

Axalimogene filolisbac has been investigated in 3 clinical trials, of which 3 are open and 0 are closed. Of the trials investigating axalimogene filolisbac, 2 are phase 2 (2 open) and 1 is phase 3 (1 open).

CDKN2A Overexpression and HPV Positive are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for axalimogene filolisbac clinical trials.

Cervical adenocarcinoma, cervical adenosquamous carcinoma, and cervical squamous cell carcinoma are the most common diseases being investigated in axalimogene filolisbac clinical trials [2].
