Summary

This is a Phase 1/2 trial using indoximod, an inhibitor of the immune "checkpoint" pathway indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), in combination with Tergenpumatucel-L immunotherapy and Docetaxel to treat subjects with advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). From a practical standpoint, a successful tumor immunotherapy will likely require a combination treatment with additional therapeutic interventions that both activate an immune response and remove redundant mechanisms of tolerance maintenance. This clinical trial utilizes the combination of the chemotherapeutic agent, docetaxel, plus two investigational methods of cancer immunotherapy: the first, tergenpumatucel-L, is intended to educate the human immune system to recognize the abnormal components found in lung cancer cells, resulting in an immune response intended to destroy or block the growth of the cancer; and the second, the IDO inhibitor Indoximod, will overcome tumor-induced immune suppression.

The goal of this study is to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates in this patient population. This study will provide a foundation for future trials testing indoximod combined with tergenpumatucel-L.
