Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate the Progression-Free-Survival rate at 12 months;Secondary Objective: • To evaluate OS, • To evaluate PFS, • To assess health-related QoL (HRQoL), • To assess ORR, • To evaluate the tolerance of mDCF in association with anti-PDL1, • To evaluate the predictive value of HPV-specific and telomerase-specific T cell responses monitored before and after treatment, • To analyze HPV, p53, neoantigens genotypes and their correlation with the treatment efficacy, • To investigate the impact of peripheral immune system status (Treg, CD4 polarization, MDSC, T cell exhaustion) on clinical outcomes and HPV/telomerase specific immunity, • To investigate the prognostic value of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and PD-L1 expression, • To explore the correlation of both peripheral CD4 anti-telomerase immunity and PDL1 immunohistochemistry with PFS, • To characterize the predictive value of soluble biomarkers (soluble PDL1…) and plasmatic HPV DNA monitoring. • To evaluate the correlation between neoantigen burden and survival at 12 months. ;Primary end point(s): Progression free survival (PFS) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At 12 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - Overall survival, - Progression-free survival, - Health-related QoL (HRQoL) analyzed with EORTC-QLQ-C30 questionnaire, - Objective response rate evaluated by RECIST criteria v1.1, - Toxicities, - HPV and telomerase-specific T cell responses - Peripheral immunological status characterization (immune checkpoint analyses on CD4 and CD8 T cells, Treg, MDSC subsets, CXCR5+ CD8+ lymphocytes and CD4 T cell polarization), - Characterization of tumor genotyping for HPV, p53, and neoantigens using the next-generation sequencing, - Level of circulating HPV DNA assessed by PCR on cell free tumor DNA, - Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL isolation or immunohistochemical analysis of Tbet, CD8, Foxp3, RoR-yt) and PD-L1 expression (immunohistochemistry) analysis, - A whole exome sequencing for determination of mutation-driven neoantigen burden. The predictive value of the number/heterogeneity of neoantigens in SCCA will be assessed and the role of neoantigen-specific T cell immunity in comparison to HPV and telomerase immunity will be defined;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: - OS is defined as the time interval from randomization to the date of death from any cause. Follow-up until death or 36 months from enrolment - PFS is defined as the time interval from randomization to the date of first documented disease progression or death from any cause Quality of life: every month during phase 1 then every 2 months during phase 2 until end-point visit - Objective response rate will be assessed using RECIST version 1.1. at baseline and every 2 months during treatment. - Toxicities : graded according to National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [NCI-CTCAE] criteria v4.03 - HPV and telomerase-specific T cell responses before and after treatment measured by ELISPOT assay.
