First-in-Human Phase 1 Study of a B Cell- and Monocyte-Based Immunotherapeutic Vaccine Against HER2-Positive Advanced Gastric Cancer. (PubMed, Cancer Res Treat)
BVAC-B monotherapy had a safe toxicity profile with limited clinical activity; however, it activated immune cells in heavily pretreated patients with HER2-positive gastric cancer. Earlier treatment with BVAC-B and combination therapy is warranted for evaluation of clinical efficacy.

HER2-targeted therapies in gastric cancer. (PubMed, Biochim Biophys Acta Rev Cancer)
However, unlike prospect in breast cancer, HER-2 inhibitor trastuzumab is the only molecular targeted drug approved by US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the first-line treatment of HER-2 positive advanced gastric cancer. On this basis, a variety of novel HER2- targeted drugs for gastric cancer are under development, and related clinical researches are in full swing, including small molecular kinase inhibitors (e.g., afatinib, neratinib, pyrotinib), antibody-drug conjugates (e.g., DS-8201a, RC48-ADC) and other novel therapies (e.g., ZW25, CAR-T, BVAC-B). In this study, we will summarize the recent advances in anti-HER-2 agents, potential mechanisms of resistance to HER2-targeted therapy in HER2-positive gastric cancer. We will also discuss the future prospects of potential strategies to overcome anti-HER-2 resistance and development of novel anti-HER-2 approaches for the treatment of HER2-positive gastric cancer patients.

[VIRTUAL] First-in-human phase I study of BVAC-B cell therapy in HER2-positive advanced gastric cancer. (ASCO 2020)
BVAC B is feasible and has acceptable toxicity profile. We considered all dose evaluated in this study available for phase 2 study, given that the maximum tolerated dose is expected to exceed the maximum dose administered in this study. For clinically relevant effect, further studies are warranted, including earlier line of exposure to BVAC-B as well as combination treatments.
