This phase I trial is evaluating the safety and tolerability of a new type of immunotherapy, given alone or with standard of care treatment, in patients with PD-L1 non-small cell lung cancerAn Open Label, Multi-Center, Dose Escalation/Expansion, Phase 1 Study of IMU-201 (PD1-Vaxx), a B-Cell Immunotherapy, in Adults With Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Clinical summary

Summary

This is a dose escalation and expansion trial. Dose escalation will occur across three monotherapy cohorts (10 μg/dose, 50 μg/dose and 100μg/dose IMU-201 as a 0.5 mL PD1-Vaxx injection)and one combination cohort, in which patients will receive standard of care treatment for non-small cell lung cancer in combination with MU-201 at a starting dose below the monotherapy optimal biological dose. Dose expansion will commence once an optimal biological dose of MU-201 is determined in the combination cohort of the dose escalation phase. Patients enrolled in the expansion cohort will receive IMU-201 in combination with standard of care treatment for non-small cell lung cancer.

This trial is treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

  3. Prior treatment criteria for Combination dose escalation arms:

    1. IMU-201 + atezolizumab, patients naïve to prior treatment or progressed on/after prior PD-1/PD-L1 containing regimen
