NCT02960230 · STUDY IN CONTEXT
H3.3K27M Peptide Vaccine With Nivolumab for Children With Newly Diagnosed DIPG and Other Gliomas
Draft scope assessment: narrower. Linked by condition-string match at the cancer-entity level. The study's eligibility - stage, biomarker, treatment line and prior therapy - has not been reconciled against this page's definition, so its population is narrower than this page in ways not yet recorded. The condition was transformed or resolved through the terminology hierarchy to reach this cancer type, so the link itself is a candidate a reviewer must confirm. Found by searching ClinicalTrials.gov for this cancer type, restricted to studies that have posted results to the registry. No FDA notice, FDA label or NCI summary held by this site cites this study. Because the search asked for posted results, studies without posted results were never looked for, so their absence from this page means nothing.

Linked outcomes
Safety of the vaccine (Strata A and B) or vaccine in combination with nivolumab (Stratum C) will be assessed for participants who received the vaccination. The severity of toxicities will be graded according to the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE)version 5.0. and include any clinically-significant lab abnormalities meeting Grade 3, 4, or 5 criteria according to CTCAE. Grade 1 \& 2 AEs will be summarized if probably, possible, or definitely related to study therapy. Descriptive statistics will be utilized to display the data on toxicity reported by participants.
OS12 is defined as the percentage of participants still alive at 12 months, and is the clinical efficacy, primary endpoint for Stratum A. Any eligible participant that received at least one dose of the K27M/TT vaccine will be considered evaluable for clinical efficacy. OS12 will be censored at the last contact date and estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

- Stratum A: Newly Diagnosed DIPG
- regimen
- Newly diagnosed children with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma who are positive for HLA-A2 and the H3.3K27M mutation that underwent radiation therapy will receive the specific H3.3K27M peptide vaccine, combined with the tetanus toxoid (TT) peptide, emulsified in Montanide. Poly-ICLC, which is a synthetic nucleic acid, will be given concurrently to improve the therapeutic effects of the vaccine. Vaccine will be given every 3 weeks for the first 24 weeks, then if there is stable or improved disease, will be given every 6 weeks for a total treatment period of 96 weeks.
