Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of nivolumab/ipilimumab and peptide-pulsed dendritic cell (ppDC) vaccination in diffuse hemispheric glioma H3 G34-mutant (DHG) participants undergoing surgical resection.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine whether nivolumab/ipilimumab and/or ppDC vaccination facilitate intratumoral T cell-mediated anti-tumor immune activation in progressive DHG.
II. To determine whether nivolumab/ipilimumab and/or ppDC vaccination stimulate systemic adaptive anti-tumor immunity in progressive DHG.
OUTLINE: Patients are sequentially assigned to 2 cohorts.
COHORT 1 (Pre-Surgical Resection): Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 arms.
ARM A: Patients undergo leukapheresis 10 days prior to first injection. Patients receive ppDC intradermally (ID) in both arms with poly ICLC intramuscularly (IM) on day -10 and placebo intravenously (IV) on day -9 prior to standard of care surgical resection.
ARM B: Patients undergo leukapheresis 10 days prior to first injection. Patients receive placebo ID in both arms with poly ICLC IM on day -10 and nivolumab IV and ipilimumab IV on day -9 prior to standard of care surgical resection.
ARM C: Patients undergo leukapheresis 10 days prior to first injection. Patients receive ppDC ID divided in both arms with poly ICLC IM on day -10 and nivolumab IV and ipilimumab IV on day -9 prior to standard of care surgical resection.
COHORT 2 (Post-Surgical Resection): Patients are assigned to 1 of 3 arms.
ARM A: Within 30 days of surgical resection, patients receive ppDC ID in both arms with poly ICLC IM and placebo IV on day 1 of each cycle. Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for up to 3 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Post-treatment, patients may receive nivolumab IV on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 4 weeks for up to 24 months following surgical resection in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
ARM B: Within 30 days of surgical resection, patients receive placebo ID in both arms with poly ICLC IM and nivolumab IV on day 1 of each cycle. Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for up to 3 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Post-treatment, patients may receive nivolumab IV on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 4 weeks for up to 24 months following surgical resection in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
ARM C: Within 30 days of surgical resection, patients receive ppDC ID in both arms with poly ICLC IM and nivolumab IV on day 1 of each cycle. Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for up to 3 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Post-treatment, patients may receive nivolumab IV on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 4 weeks for up to 24 months following surgical resection in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days and 6 months and every 6 months for up to 2 years.

Safety and tolerability will be monitored by the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) incorporating regular reviews with the investigators in this pilot surgical trial.
Adverse events will be monitored throughout the trial and graded in severity according to the guidelines outlined in the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version (v) 5.0.

Increased tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) density
Time Frame: Up to 2 years

Tumor tissue will be analyzed for increased TIL density, quantified as number of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) per nucleated cell, or increased T cell activation/ decreased T cell exhaustion marker expression.
Mean differences for all outcomes of interest will be estimated for (group A versus group B, group A versus C, and group B versus C).
Sampling uncertainty in estimation will be reported using 95% Confidence Intervals.
A two-sample t-test with Bonferroni adjustment will be performed to test each of these two hypotheses.

Oligoclonal T cell expansion
Time Frame: Up to 2 years

Peripheral blood will be analyzed for oligoclonal T cell expansion by T cell receptor (TCR)VBeta sequencing.
