Long-term outcomes of patients with recurrent ovarian cancer treated with a polyvalent vaccine with bevacizumab combination.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To characterize the safety, immunogenicity, and outcomes of patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) in second or greater remission treated with a polyvalent antigen-KLH plus OPT-821 vaccine construct and bevacizumab.

Methods

Patients with recurrent HGSOC were treated with the vaccine plus bevacizumab at our institution from 01/05/2011 to 03/20/2012. Follow-up continued until 03/2021. Blood/urine samples were collected. "Responders" had an immunogenic response to ≥ 3 antigens; "non-responders" to ≤ 2 antigens.

Results

Twenty-one patients were treated on study. One developed a dose-limiting toxicity (grade 4 fever). Two (10%) experienced bevacizumab-related grade 3 hypertension. Thirteen (68%) and 16 (84%) of 19 responded to ≥ 3 and ≥ 2 antigen
