A Screening Study Targeting Tumor-specific Antigens
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to identify patients who may be eligible to participate in a separate Phase 2/3 treatment study evaluating an individualized neoantigen vaccine GRANITE for first line (1L) maintenance treatment of metastatic, microsatellite-sable colorectal cancer (MSS-CRC) sponsored by Gritstone bio. This may include the manufacturing of an individualized vaccine, which involves neoantigen prediction and generating a vaccine targeting neoantigens.

Detailed Description
The screening study can enroll multiple tumor types in multiple treatment settings for the potential inclusion in a treatment study. Patient's tumors are analyzed to determine if the patient's tumor contains sufficient mutations. This screening study is currently enrolling patients with localized colon cancer or metastatic colorectal cancer for the development of an individualized neoantigen-based cancer vaccine that requires a manufacturing period for each patient.
The process of generating an individualized neoantigen cancer vaccine involves multiple steps, including collection of patient tumor and blood specimens, performing next-generation sequencing (NGS), predicting the neoantigens to be included in the individualized vaccine, and the manufacture and release of the individualized vaccine.
Study participants will not receive any investigational treatment as part of this trial. Patients screened in this study may be able to enroll in a separate investigational treatment study sponsored by Gritstone bio, provided that the patient meets the specified eligibility criteria for that treatment study.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Advanced/Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Eligible patients include those with newly-diagnosed or recurrent advanced/metastatic CRC who are initiating fluoropyrimidine and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX or CAPEOX) in combination with bevacizumab. Patients will then be assessed to determine if sufficient neoantigens are identified using Gritstone's proprietary prediction algorithm, EDGE(TM), to warrant manufacturing of an individualized vaccine. Patients with sufficient neoantigens will have vaccine manufactured while receiving FOLFOX or CAPEOX/bevacizumab. |
Procedure: blood collection for research (next generation sequencing [NGS])
participants will have whole blood collected for NGS
Procedure: blood collection for research (HLA typing)
participants will have whole blood collected for HLA typing
|
Localized Colon Cancer Eligible patients include those with high-risk Stage II or Stage III colon cancer who have MRD based on the presence of ctDNA following surgical resection. Patients with MRD will then be assessed to determine if sufficient neoantigens are identified using Gritstone's proprietary prediction algorithm, EDGE(TM), to warrant manufacturing of an individualized vaccine. |
Procedure: blood collection for research (next generation sequencing [NGS])
participants will have whole blood collected for NGS
Procedure: blood collection for research (HLA typing)
participants will have whole blood collected for HLA typing
Procedure: blood collection for research (circulating tumor DNA [ctDNA])
participants will have whole blood collected for ctDNA detection

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Primary [at study enrollment]
