Background: Mutation-associated neoantigens (MANAs) constitute attractive antigens for the design of cancer vaccines. However, clinical implementation remains challenging because of the patient specific nature of MANAs, hereby requiring that a bespoke vaccine is designed for each subject. We developed a pipeline for the genomic characterization and the design of tailored vaccine using a modified vaccinia Ankara viral vector. Methods: Immunogenicity, safety and early clinical activity of personalized cancer vaccines are being assessed in two phase I trials, respectively in high grade serous OC and HPV-negative HNSCC. Patients (Pts) at high risk of relapse are enrolled in the study being in remission following surgical primary treatment. High risk is defined as stage IIIC or IVA for OC and stage III or IVA for HNSCC. A vaccine is manufactured for each patient. OC pts are treated at asymptomatic relapse based on radiological finding or elevation of CA-125 with the vaccine alone; HNSCC pts in complete remission after surgery and adjuvant therapy are randomized to receive the vaccine either at the end of locoregional treatment or in combination with standard of care at relapse. The vaccine was administered weekly for 6 weeks and a booster dose every three weeks over a year or until progression, whichever occurred first. Results: At the time of the data cut-off, a total of 8 pts were treated: 4 relapsing OC pts, 3 HNSCC pts in complete remission and 1 relapsing HNSCC pt. AE attributable to the vaccine were mainly grade 1 injection site reactions and fatigue. One OC pt displayed an objective response 6 weeks after initiation of vaccine and for 9 months with a normalization of CA-125 until death from an unrelated cause; 1 other OC pt remains on treatment with a stable radiological disease for 11 months. The 2 other OC progressed at the first evaluation on day 43. HNSCC pts treated in complete remission received respectively 20, 15 and 4 doses, and remain on treatment and disease free. One HNSCC patient received 9 doses of vaccine after relapse in conjunction with chemotherapy and anti-PD-1 therapy and remains on treatment with stable disease after 5 months. Immune monitoring demonstrates priming of a polyepitopic T cell response against class I and II antigens. Responses were observed regardless of HLA and without cross-reactivity to the germline protein. Adaptive response was associated with a shift of CD4 and CD8 T cells toward an effector phenotype and innate cellular immunity was activated with a strong maturation and activation of NK cells. Immune changes were stronger in pts with controlled disease versus progressors. Conclusions: Data demonstrate that TG4050 is safe, well tolerated and able to induce T cell responses whatever the HLA haplotype. Early signs of clinical activity were observed in OC pt. These data pave the way for further development and synergistic immunotherapeutic combinations. Clinical trial information: NCT04183166.
