マウントサイナイ医科大学の研究チームは、膀胱がん患者を対象に、個別化ワクチン「PGV001」と免疫チェックポイント阻害剤アテゾリズマブを併用する臨床試験を実施しました。このワクチンは、患者ごとの腫瘍遺伝子変異に基づいて設計され、免疫応答を最大化することを目的としています。試験では、10人の患者全員に新たなT細胞応答が確認され、副作用は注射部位の軽度な反応にとどまりました。この結果は、個別化ワクチンと免疫療法の併用が、従来の治療に抵抗性を示す患者にも有効である可能性を示唆しています。研究成果は、今後の大規模試験や他のがん種への応用に向けた基盤となると期待されています。

Abstract

Features of constrained adaptive immunity and high neoantigen burden have been correlated with response to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). In an attempt to stimulate antitumor immunity, we evaluated atezolizumab (anti-programmed cell death protein 1 ligand 1) in combination with PGV001, a personalized neoantigen vaccine, in participants with urothelial cancer. The primary endpoints were feasibility (as defined by neoantigen identification, peptide synthesis, vaccine production time and vaccine administration) and safety. Secondary endpoints included objective response rate, duration of response and progression-free survival for participants treated in the metastatic setting, time to progression for participants treated in the adjuvant setting, overall survival and vaccine-induced neoantigen-specific T cell immunity. A vaccine was successfully prepared (median 20.3 weeks) for 10 of 12 enrolled participants. All participants initiating treatment completed the priming cycle. The most common treatment-related adverse events were grade 1 injection site reactions, fatigue and fever. At a median follow-up of 39 months, three of four participants treated in the adjuvant setting were free of recurrence and two of five participants treated in the metastatic setting with measurable disease achieved an objective response. All participants demonstrated on-treatment emergence of neoantigen-specific T cell responses. Neoantigen vaccination plus ICI was feasible and safe, meeting its endpoints, and warrants further investigation. ClinicalTrials.gov registration: NCT03359239.
