Summary

This trial is testing a new kind of cancer vaccine in people who have had aggressive prostate cancer. The goal is to see if the vaccine is safe and tolerated.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men over 18 with a history of aggressive prostate cancer who are currently tumor-free. They must have completed all standard treatments, including surgery and chemotherapy, and not be on any immune-suppressing drugs. Participants need good blood counts and organ function, agree to use contraception if necessary, and provide tissue samples for sequencing.
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety of PGV001-based personalized multi-peptide vaccines combined with CDX-301 in patients who've had aggressive prostate cancer but are now tumor-free. It's designed to see how well they tolerate this new treatment approach after their standard care.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects aren't specified here but generally could include reactions at the injection site, flu-like symptoms such as fever or chills, fatigue, allergic responses or other immune-related effects due to vaccine components.
