Personalized Tumor Vaccines and Pembrolizumab in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Clinical Study of Personalized Tumor Vaccines mRNA-0217/S001 and Pembrolizumab in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

The main objective of this study was to observe and evaluate the safety and tolerability of mRNA-0217/S001 vaccine encoding personalized tumor neoantigens alone/in combination with Pembrolizumab injection for the treatment of advanced solid tumors. The secondary objective was to observe the preliminary efficacy of mRNA-0217/S001 personalized tumor vaccine in the treatment of advanced solid tumors with neoantigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte responses, objective tumor response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) caused by mRNA-0217/S001 personalized tumor vaccine.

disease control rate (DCR)	DCR calculates the ratio of the number of patients whose best response is complete remission (CR), or partial remission (PR), or stable disease (SD) to the total number of evaluable patients according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. Those who have not been evaluated for lesion and tumor response will be regarded as non-evaluable patients and will not be counted.	Up to 105 weeks
