Brief Title: Vigil™ + Nivolumab in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Official Title: A Phase 2 Study of Vigil™ Augmented Autologous Tumor Cell Immunotherapy in Combination With Nivolumab PD-1 Inhibitor for Patients With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Study ID: NCT02639234
Brief Summary: This is an open label phase 2 study to evaluate the combination of Vigil™ and nivolumab in advanced or metastatic NSCLC that is progressive on or after one prior platinum-based systemic therapy. Patients meeting study eligibility criteria will receive Vigil™ every 2 weeks (for a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 12 doses) and nivolumab every 2 weeks. The combination of Vigil™ and nivolumab will demonstrate a higher objective response rate (ORR) than the historical ORR of single agent nivolumab in patients with advanced NSCLC.
Detailed Description: This is an open label phase 2 study to evaluate the combination of Vigil™ autologous tumor cell immunotherapy and nivolumab PD-1 inhibitor therapy in patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC that is progressive on or after one prior platinum-based systemic therapy (ALK or EGFR mutation-targeted therapy should have been received if appropriate mutation present). Patients undergoing a standard surgical procedure (e.g., tumor biopsy, palliative resection, or thoracentesis of malignant pleural effusion) may elect to have tumor tissue procured for manufacture of Vigil™ vaccine. Patients meeting study eligibility criteria will receive doublet therapy comprising of (i) Vigil™ 1 x 10\^7 cells by intradermal injection every 2 weeks for a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 12 doses and (ii) nivolumab 3 mg/kg by intravenous infusion over 60 minutes every 2 weeks. Three to six weeks after tissue procurement has occurred eligibility will be reconfirmed by the study site. Subjects must begin the study regimen within 6 weeks of tissue procurement. Radiological assessment of tumor response will be performed at screening, Cycle 5 (Week 9) and approximately every 2 months thereafter until progressive disease unless the subject is lost to follow-up, withdraws consent for study related procedures, or initiates another cancer therapy. Tumor biopsy for correlative studies should be obtained at tissue procurement and at Cycle 5 (Week 9). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) for correlative studies should be obtained before tumor procurement, and prior to initiation of study therapy on Day 1 at Cycle 1 (Week 1), Cycle 5 (Week 9), Cycle 9 (Week 17) and EOT.
