Brief summary

This is a dual arm, open label phase I/II study to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of the combination of durvalumab with CV301 in combination with maintenance chemotherapy for patients with metastatic colorectal or pancreatic cancer whose disease is stable on, or responding to 1st line therapy for metastatic disease. Patients with metastatic colorectal or pancreatic adenocarcinoma who still have an adequate performance status and normal hepatic and renal function will be eligible.

Inclusion criteria

1. Histologically proven metastatic pancreatic or colorectal adenocarcinoma with measurable disease, defined as at least 1 unidimensionally measurable lesion on a CT scan as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria. 2. Stable on, or responding to 1st line therapy for metastatic disease 1. At least 8 and not more than 16 weeks after initiating 1st line therapy for metastatic disease 2. Tumor stability/response on 1st line therapy will be determined as per RECIST 1.1 3. Prior adjuvant chemotherapy is allowed, as long as a minimum of 3 months (for pancreatic cancer) and 6 months (for colorectal cancer) has passed between the completion of adjuvant therapy and the start of first line therapy 4. Disease that is amenable to serial biopsies 5. ECOG performance status 0-1 6. Age \>= 18 years 7. Blood pressure \<160/100 mmHg 8. Adequate hepatic, bone marrow, and renal function: 1. Bone Marrow: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/mm3; Platelets ≥ 100,000/mm3; Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL 2. Renal function: Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 X upper normal limit of institution's normal range OR creatinine clearance ≥ 40 mL/min/1.73 m2 for subjects with creatinine levels above institutional normal. Creatinine clearance should be determined by the Cockcroft-Gault formula (below) or by 24-hour urine collection for determination of creatinine clearance: Males: Creatinine CL (mL/min) = Weight (kg) x (140 - Age) 72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL) Females: Creatinine CL (mL/min) = Weight (kg) x (140 - Age) x 0.85 72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL) 3. Hepatic function: AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 X the upper normal limit of institution's normal range. Non-fasting bilirubin ≤ 1.5 X the upper normal limit of institution's normal range. 9. Partial Thromboplastin Time (PTT) must be ≤ 1.5 X upper normal limit of institution's normal range and INR (International Normalized Ratio) ≤ 1.5. Subjects on anticoagulant (such as coumadin) will be permitted to enroll as long as the INR is in the acceptable therapeutic range as determined by the investigator. Due to the drug-drug interaction between warfarin and capecitabine, alternate anticoagulation should be considered. 10. Life expectancy \> 12 weeks. 11. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 28 days prior to initiation of treatment AND confirmed prior to initiation of treatment on Day 1. 12. Alternatively, female subjects must be of non-reproductive potential (ie, post-menopausal by history: ≥60 years old and no menses for ≥1 year without an alternative medical cause; OR history of hysterectomy, OR history of bilateral tubal ligation, OR history of bilateral oophorectomy). 13. Subject is capable of understanding and complying with parameters as outlined in the protocol and able to sign and date the informed consents, approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB), prior to the initiation of any screening or study-specific procedures.
