- Brief Summary
The study will consist of two parts :
In the phase Ib: safety will be assessed in consecutive cohorts of 3 to 6 patients at increasing doses of TG4001 in combination with avelumab according to a 3+3 design. There will be no intra-patient dose escalation.
In the phase II part 1, evaluation of efficacy and further evaluation of safety of the combination of TG4001 and avelumab will be performed in a single arm of patients with recurrent or metastatic HPV-16 positive advanced malignancies.
In the phase II part 2, evaluation of efficacy of the combination of TG4001 and avelumab will be performed in a randomized, open-label controlled study comparing TG4001 in combination with avelumab to avelumab alone in patients with HPV-16 positive advanced malignancies.
In both phases, tumor response will be evaluated on local assessment using RECIST 1.1.
All patients will be followed up until disease progression, death, or unacceptable toxicity, or study withdrawal for any reason, whichever occurs first.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Phase Ib: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the combination of TG4001 plus avelumab in patients with recurrent or metastatic HPV-16 positive advanced malignancies Day 28 Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) includes the following:

However, fatigue, nausea/vomiting adequately treated with anti-emetics, endocrinopathies adequately controlled with one physiologic hormone replacement, skin toxicity and single laboratory values out of normal range without any clinical correlate, asymptomatic grade ≥3 lipase or amylase elevation, tumor flare defined as local pain, irritation, or rash localized at sites of known or suspected tumor or a transient Grade 3 infusion adverse event are excluded.
* Liver function test abnormality:
* AST or ALT \> 5 x ULN
* Total bilirubin \> 3 x ULN
* Concurrent AST or ALT \> 3 x ULN and total bilirubin \> 2 x ULN
* Drug related AE requiring treatment interruption for more than 2 weeksPhase II part 2: Progression Free Survival (PFS) by RECISIT 1.1 Every 6 weeks for the first 9 months, then every 12 weeks up to 3 years Time from the date of randomization to death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
