Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM)

Participants with previously treated Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma/MPM

Biological: Galinpepimut-S
Galinpepimut-S will be administered alone on weeks 0 and 2. Participants will receive the galinpepimut-S vaccine and nivolumab over 16 weeks in the initial treatment phase.

Drug: Nivolumab
Participants will receive nivolumab and the galinpepimut-S vaccine over 16 weeks in the initial treatment phase.

Biological: Sargramostim
All participants will receive Sargramostim (GM-CSF) 70 mcg injected subcutaneously on days 0 and -2 of each cycle
Other Names:
  • GM-CSF
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Maximum tolerated dose [up to 24 months]

      A dose will be considered tolerable if there are no more than 2 out of 10 participants with dose limiting toxicities.
