Abstract CT035: Safety, preliminary efficacy and pharmacodynamic (PD) analysis of maveropepimut-S, intermittent low-dose cyclophosphamide and pembrolizumab in patients with advanced, metastatic bladder cancer
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Background: Maveropepimut-S (MVP-S) is a novel immunotherapeutic that educates a specific CD8 T cell response to the cancer antigen, survivin, to orchestrate immune-mediated elimination of survivin-expressing cancer cells. Specifically, MVP-S is a lipid-in-oil formulation of the DPX delivery platform, incorporating five survivin-specific immunogenic peptides, the innate immune stimulant, polydIdC, and a CD4 T cell helper peptide. In prior clinical studies, MVP-S and intermittent low-dose cyclophosphamide (CPA) elicited confirmed clinical responses (both partial and complete by RECISTv1.1) and induced a robust, durable survivin-specific CD8 T cell response. Moreover, the combination with pembrolizumab appeared to be well tolerated in solid tumors and lymphomas. The purpose of this phase 2 study is to explore whether this combination may be safe and effective in advanced, metastatic bladder cancer patients, both naïve to, and previously treated with, immune checkpoint inhibitors. Results: Seventeen (17) subjects were treated with the combination of MVP-S, CPA and pembrolizumab. Subjects received an average of 3 prior lines of therapy with 13/17 (76.4%) having previously received an anti-PD1/L1. Seven subjects progressed on or after anti-PD1/L1 as last line of therapy prior to entering the trial. The combination was well-tolerated, with majority of AEs being grade 1 or grade 2. Five (5) out of 17 subjects showed response: 3 subjects with PR (unconfirmed) and 2 with CR (confirmed). Three of these, including the 2 CRs, had progressed on anti-PD-1/L1. Long-term clinical benefit has been observed in several subjects (one patient is still on treatment after 17 months) and coincides with an increase in detectable survivin-specific T cells in peripheral blood. Conclusion: Preliminary data suggest that MVP-S/CPA and pembrolizumab is a well-tolerated combination and shows encouraging preliminary clinical activity in the treatment of advanced or metastatic bladder cancer patients, including patients who have progressed on prior anti-PD-1/L1 therapy.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
