Pseudovax - A Cancer Vaccine for Patients With Pseudomyxoma Peritonei

Recruiting now · Early Phase 1

Conditions studied: Pseudomyxoma Peritonei

In brief

Participants will receive vaccination with Pseudovax/GM-CSF in combination with PD-1 inhibitor tislelizumab over a period of up to two years. The vaccine is expected to reactivate measurable immune response, and tislelizumab to restore anticancer immunity in patients with GNAS mutated pseudomyxoma peritonei.
