Purpose: To evaluate tipapkinogene sovacivec (TG4001), a viral immunotherapeutic vaccine expressing human papillomavirus (HPV)16 E6/E7 non-oncogenic proteins and IL-2, in combination with avelumab in HPV16+ cancer patients.
Patients And Methods: In this open-label, phase Ib/II, multicenter study, HPV16+ advanced cancer patients received subcutaneous TG4001 at two dose levels (DL) in phase Ib and at the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) in phase II weekly for 6 weeks, then every 2 weeks (q2Wk) until 6 months, thereafter every 12 weeks, in combination with avelumab q2Wk starting from day 8. Exploratory end-points included immunomonitoring from sequential tumour and blood samples.
Treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) typically requires life-long administration of drugs. Cohort and pre-clinical studies have established the link between a functional T-cell-mounted immunity and resolution of infection. TG1050 is an adenovirus 5-based vaccine that expresses HBV polymerase and domains of core and surface antigen and has shown immunogenicity and antiviral effects in mice.
