Official title
IMPACT31: A Randomized Open-label, Multi-center, Phase II Adjuvant Study of a Personalized Neoantigen DNA Vaccine (GNOS-PV02) and Plasmid Encoded IL-12 (INO-9012) Versus Active Surveillance in Subjects With High-Risk HCC
Overview
This is a randomized, open-label, multi-site Phase II study of a personalized neoantigen DNA vaccine (GNOS-PV02) and plasmid encoded IL-12 (INO-9012) in subjects with histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of HCC based on pathology report, who were eligible to undergo definitive resection, have demonstrated laboratory, radiographic and/or pathologic high-risk criteria for recurrence (described under eligibility), have no evidence of disease (NED) as per MRI approximately 28 days post resection, and are able to provide a tissue sample for personalized neoantigen DNA vaccine development.
Interventions
- Biological GNOS-PV02 + INO-9012 delivered by intradermal injection, followed by electroporation
delivered by intradermal injection and electroporation - Device Electroporation Device
GNOS-PV02 + INO-9012 ID followed by electroporation - Biological INO-9012
cytokine interleukin-12 (IL-12), a vaccine adjuvant
Primary outcome measures
- Recurrence-free survival [Time frame: Up to 5 years]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Incidence of treatment emergent adverse events (safety and tolerability) [Time frame: Up to 5 years]
- Time to extra-hepatic spread or macro-vascular invasion [Time frame: Up to 5 years]
- Overall survival [Time frame: Up to 5 years on study + 3 years follow up]
