The aim of this study is to assess safety, feasibility and immunogenicity of vaccination with neopeptide-loaded dendritic cells in Lynch Syndrome subjects who are known to be carrier of a germline MMR-gene mutation without signs of disease.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
a confirmed gPV in MLH1 or MSH2 and without a prior history of MMR-D cancer.
a confirmed gPV in MSH6, whether or not they have a history of MMR-D cancer. MSH6 subjects with a history of MMR-D cancer have to be cancer-free for more than 1 year.
previous surgical treatment may include any resection up to and including hemicolectomy; subjects who have undergone (sub)total colectomy are excluded due to the substantially reduced risk of cancer occurrence.
aged between 35 and 75 for subjects with gPV in MLH1 and MSH2; and aged between 40 and 75 for subjects with gPV in MSH6.
Disqualifiers
Individuals with a history of malignancy in the past. Allowed malignancies are adequately treated basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, carcinoma in situ (e.g., DCIS/LCIS/cervical CIS), papillary thyroid carcinoma, and low-risk prostate carcinoma; all locally resected with negative surgical margins and not treated with systemic therapy.
