Study Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the combination of nivolumab and a CCR2/CCR5 dual antagonist (BMS-813160) with GVAX is safe in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) who have received chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and to see if this combination therapy enhances the infiltration of CD8+CD137+ cells in PDACs .

Inclusion Criteria

  • Age ≥18 years.
  • Patients with histologically- or cytologically-proven, surgically unresectable, locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
  • If the patient does not have a diagnostic biopsy that is adequate for review at our institution, the patient must agree to a research core biopsy to be performed at Johns Hopkins.
  • If the patient's available imaging is not adequate for review by our institution, the patient must agree to a repeat imaging to be performed at Johns Hopkins.
  • ECOG performance status 0 or 1
  • Life expectancy greater than 3 months.
  • Able to swallow pills or capsules.
  • Patient must have adequate organ function defined by the study-specified laboratory tests.
  • Patients must be eligible to receive FOLFIRINOX-based chemotherapy.
  • Patients must be willing to be treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) only at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
  • Patients must be willing to undergo a core biopsy of the pancreatic cancer.
  • Patients must be willing to undergo a biopsy of the pancreatic cancer if the patient is not deemed a surgical candidate during the pre-surgical evaluation.
  • Must use acceptable form of birth control while on study.
  • Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients cannot have had any prior therapy for the locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
  • Have received any anti-neoplastic biologics, vaccines or hormonal treatment, including investigational drugs, within 28 days of the first dose of study.
  • History of past treatment with immunotherapy agents prior to initial enrollment into this study (including, but not limited to: IL-2, interferon, anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2, anti-CD137, anti-OX-40, anti-CD40, anti-CTLA-4 or anti-CCR2/5 drugs).
  • Have had prior organ or tissue allograft or allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, including corneal transplants.
  • Is currently participating or has participated in a study of an investigational agent or using an investigational device for the treatment of cancer.
  • Current use of immunosuppressive medications within 14 days prior to study medications.
