Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dose, safety, immunogenicity and early clinical activity of GRT-C903 and GRT-R904, a neoantigen-based therapeutic cancer vaccine, in combination with immune checkpoint blockade, in patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, microsatellite stable colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, and shared neoantigen-positive tumors. Based on the Phase 1 data, an updated vaccine candidate (SLATE-KRAS or version 2) was developed that removed 16 of the 20 mutations included in the original vaccine (version 1) and solely targets KRAS mutations.
