Exome sequencing shows same pattern of clonal tumor mutational burden, intratumor heterogenicity and clonal neoantigen between autologous tumor and Vigil product. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
Correlation between tumor and Vigil for the cNEO and ITH metrics, showed R2 values of 0.95 and 0.87, respectively. The consistency of the Clonal Neoantigen pipeline results with previously published data as well as the agreement between results for tumor and Vigil for the entire system provide a strong basis of support for utilization of this pipeline for prospective determination of cTMB, cNEO, and ITH values in clinical tumor tissue in order to explore possible correlative relationships with clinical response parameters.

Repair Assisted Damage Detection (RADD) as a predictive biomarker for immunotherapy response in ovarian cancer. (PubMed, Gynecol Oncol)
RADD revealed DNA repair proficiency without mutation signatures or expression profiling. High DNA damage levels show improved survival for Vigil maintenance therapies and are correlated with immune evasion proteins. The persistence of DNA lesions in the genomic DNA offers a new biomarker for immunotherapy patient stratification.

Gemogenovatucel-T (Vigil): bi-shRNA plasmid-based targeted immunotherapy. (PubMed, Future Oncol)
Transfected plasmid components contain an expressive human GMCSF DNA segment to enhance anticancer immune functional response and a second component expressing bi-shRNAfurin which reduces TGFβ isomers (TGFβ1 and TGFβ2) thereby reducing cancer inhibition of the targeted immune response. Results generated to date justify advancement to confirmatory clinical trials supporting product regulatory approval.

Clonal Neoantigen: Emerging "Mechanism-based" Biomarker of Immunotherapy Response. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
Vigil is an autologous cellular immunotherapy which is designed to carry the full set of personal clonal neoantigens. Phase 2b results demonstrate a durable recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) advantage for Vigil in a subset ovarian cancer population with an HRP cancer profile.

Advances in Targeted Therapy for the Treatment of Cervical Cancer. (PubMed, J Clin Med)
We have consolidated information regarding the role of the immune system in both disease progression and disease clearance with the aid of targeted therapies and immunotherapeutic agents. Additionally, we have characterized the treatment modalities currently indicated as the standard of care-such as bevacizumab and the immune CPIs-and those recently approved or in development, including Tivdak, Vigil, and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells.

ENTPD1/CD39 as a predictive marker of treatment response to gemogenovatucel-T as maintenance therapy in newly diagnosed ovarian cancer. (PubMed, Commun Med (Lond))
NSA should be considered for application to investigational targeted therapies in order to identify populations most likely to benefit from treatment, in preparation for efficacy conclusive trials.

Evaluation of a 293 gene oncology-focused exome sequencing panel for screening of ovarian cancer patients for BRCA mutations as a prerequisite for autologous cellular immunotherapy manufacturing (AACR 2023)
Gemogenovatucel-T is a cellular immunotherapy manufactured from harvested tumor tissue transfected with a plasmid which encodes granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and a short harpin RNA which specifically reduces the expression of furin and downstream targets TGF-β1, and TGF- β2...The entire process starting with blood DNA extraction and ending with report generation can be completed in about 3.5 days. The results show that a comprehensive oncology-focused sequencing panel can be an effective tool for focused gene-specific variant analysis.
