Combining a cancer vaccine with immunotherapy and chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer patients after surgery
Official title: Efficacy and Safety Trial of XH001 (Neoantigen Cancer Vaccine) Sequential Combination With Immunocheckpoint Inhibitor and Chemotherapy in Adjuvant Therapy for Patients With Resected Pancreatic Cancer
Run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital · NCT06353646 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing a new cancer vaccine combined with immunotherapy and chemotherapy to see if it helps prevent pancreatic cancer from coming back in patients who have had surgery to remove their tumors.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 75 with histologically confirmed pancreatic adenocarcinoma who have undergone R0 or R1 surgical resection and have not received prior neoadjuvant therapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer or evidence of disease recurrence or metastasis will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of XH001, a neoantigen cancer vaccine, in combination with immunocheckpoint inhibitors and chemotherapy for patients who have undergone surgical resection of pancreatic cancer. It is a single-center, open-label, and single-arm study, meaning all participants will receive the same treatment without a control group. The goal is to determine how well this combination therapy works in preventing cancer recurrence in patients who have had their tumors surgically removed. Participants will be closely monitored for their response to the treatment and any potential side effects.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could improve survival rates and reduce the risk of cancer recurrence in patients with resected pancreatic cancer.
How similar studies have gone: While the combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy has shown promise in other cancers, this specific approach in pancreatic cancer is relatively novel and has not been extensively tested.
