April 2, 2015 updated by: GlobeImmune

A Phase 2 Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled, Multi-center Adjuvant Trial of the Efficacy, Immunogenicity, and Safety of GI-4000; an Inactivated Recombinant Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Expressing Mutant Ras Protein Combined With a Gemcitabine Regimen Versus a Gemcitabine Regimen With Placebo, in Patients With Post-resection R0/R1 Pancreatic Cancer With Tumor Sequence Confirmation of Ras Mutations.

The GI-4000 therapeutic vaccine or placebo will be injected under the skin of post-resection, non-metastatic pancreas cancer patients. Patients will be monitored for recurrence as well as safety, and immune responses related to the injections.
