The phase 3 INTerpath-002 study design: Individualized neoantigen therapy (INT) V940 (mRNA-4157) plus pembrolizumab vs placebo plus pembrolizumab for resected early-stage non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Bibliographic record
Abstract
TPS8116 Background: Pembrolizumab (pembro; anti–PD-1) is indicated as adjuvant monotherapy following resection and adjuvant chemotherapy in patients (pts) with stage IB (T2a ≥4 cm), II, or IIIA NSCLC (per AJCC v7). However, many pts experience disease recurrence, and have limited treatment options available. V940 (mRNA-4157) is a novel individualized neoantigen therapy that encodes up to 34 neoantigens that is specifically tailored and manufactured for each pt derived from their tumor. V940 as monotherapy and in combination with pembro has shown preliminary antitumor activity in the phase 1 KEYNOTE-603 study in several solid tumor types, including NSCLC. Additionally, in pts with completely resected, high-risk stage IIIB/C/D and IV cutaneous melanoma in the KEYNOTE-942 primary analysis, V940 plus pembro demonstrated significant improvements in recurrence-free survival (HR, 0.561 [95% CI, 0.309–1.017]; P = 0.0266) and distant metastasis-free survival (HR, 0.347 [95% CI, 0.145–0.828]; P = 0.0063) vs pembro alone. Here we present the design of the phase 3, randomized, double-blind INTerpath-002 study (NCT06077760) of adjuvant V940 plus pembro vs placebo plus pembro in pts with completely resected and chemotherapy-treated stage II–IIIB (N2) NSCLC (AJCC v8). Methods: Eligible pts aged ≥18 years with completely resected stage II, IIIA, or IIIB (N2) squamous or nonsquamous NSCLC (per AJCC v8.0) where EGFR-directed therapy is not indicated as primary therapy (ie, absence of sensitizing EGFR mutations e.g. DEL19 or L858R), who have received 1–4 doses of adjuvant platinum-doublet chemotherapy, have ECOG PS 0 or 1, and have available tumor tissue for next-generation sequencing and PD-L1 testing will be enrolled. Pts must not have received previous neoadjuvant therapy for NSCLC and must not have received or be candidates for adjuvant radiotherapy. Pts will be randomized 1:1 to receive V940 1 mg IM or placebo Q3W for up to 9 doses plus pembro 400 mg IV Q6W for up to 9 cycles or until disease recurrence, pt withdrawal, unacceptable toxicity, or an additional malignancy requiring treatment. Randomization will be stratified by histology (squamous vs nonsquamous), PD-L1 TPS ( < 1% vs 1%–49% vs ≥50%), disease stage (II vs III), and geographic location (North America/Western Europe/Australia vs rest of world). The primary endpoint is disease-free survival per investigator review. Secondary endpoints include distant metastasis-free survival per investigator assessment, OS, lung cancer‒specific survival, patient-reported outcomes, and safety. Tumor imaging will occur at baseline, every 12 wk until wk 48, every 24 wk through year 3, and every 48 wk thereafter. Enrollment began in October 2023 and is ongoing globally (NCT06077760).

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.
