Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This clinical trial will evaluate the safety and immune response of the sequential administration cancer vaccine CRS-207 (with or without cyclophosphamide) followed by standard of care chemotherapy (pemetrexed and cisplatin). CRS-207 is a weakened (attenuated) form of Listeria monocytogenes that has been genetically-modified to reduce its capacity to cause disease, while maintaining its ability to stimulate potent immune responses. CRS-207 has been engineered to elicit an immune response against the tumor-associated antigen mesothelin, which has been shown to be present at higher levels on certain tumor cells (such as mesothelioma) than on normal cells. Pemetrexed and cisplatin are the standard chemotherapy regimen to treat malignant pleural mesothelioma. This trial will evaluate whether giving CRS-207 cancer vaccine with chemotherapy will induce anti-tumor immune responses and/or objective tumor response.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Biological: Immunotherapy plus chemotherapy
  • Biological: Immunotherapy with cyclophosphamide plus chemotherapy
Phase 1

Detailed Description

Up to 60 subjects will be enrolled in this study. Eligible subjects will receive 2 prime vaccinations of CRS-207 (1×10^9 colony-forming units [CFU] given intravenously [i.v.] over 2 hours) (with or without cyclophosphamide) 2 weeks apart followed 2 weeks later by up to 6 cycles of pemetrexed and cisplatin 21 days apart. Three weeks after completion of chemotherapy, subjects will receive an additional 2 infusions (boost vaccinations) of CRS-207 3 weeks apart. Subjects will be followed every 8 weeks until disease progression by immune-related response criteria. Subjects who continue to meet dosing eligibility may receive additional CRS-207 (with or without cyclophosphamide) infusions (maintenance vaccinations) at each follow-up visit.

Study assessments include blood draws for safety and immune response monitoring and CT scans [with optional fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET)] or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to monitor disease status. In addition, optional tumor biopsies may be performed before, during and after treatment.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of Subjects Reporting Adverse Events [From first study dose until 28 days after the final dose (an average of 44 weeks)]

      Count of subjects with incidences of adverse events.

    2. Induction of Immune Response to Mesothelin by Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Spot (ELISPOT) Assay [Change over time assessed at multiple time points until disease progression or death (up to 12 months or longer)]

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Objective Tumor Response [Baseline to measured disease progression or death (up to 12 months or longer)]

      Objective tumor response was measured using modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST) for assessment of response in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). Per mRECIST for target lesions and assessed by CT: Complete Response (CR), disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Stable Disease, those who fulfilled the criteria for neither PR nor PD; Progressive Disease (PD), >=20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions.

    2. Time to Progression [From date of randomization until date of documented progression (by modified RECIST or immune-related response criteria) or death, assessed up to 12 months or longer]

    3. Serum Mesothelin as Correlate of Therapeutic Response [Change over time assessed at multiple time points until disease progression or death (up to 12 months or longer)]
