Comparing Neoadjuvant/Adjuvant GVAX vs a mKRASvax Given With Anti-PD-1 and Anti-CD137 for Surgically Resectable Pancreatic Cancer

A Pilot Study Comparing Neoadjuvant and Adjuvant GVAX vs a Mutated KRAS Peptide Vaccine Given With Anti-PD-1 and Anti-CD137 for the Treatment of Surgically Resectable Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 3 Dec 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal dose of AGEN2373 that is safe when given in combination with balstilimab and Pancreatic GVAX Whole Cell Vaccine and evaluate the safety and clinical activity of balstilimab and AGEN2373 in combination with GVAX (Arm 1) or mKRASvax (Arm 2) in surgically resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

  • Received a live vaccine ≤ 28 days before first dose of study drug.
  • Concurrent participation in another therapeutic clinical study

Other illness

  • Diagnosed with another cancer whose natural history or treatment could interfere with safety or efficacy assessments on this study.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, uncontrolled infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina, cardiac arrhythmia, metastatic cancer, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
