Phase 2 Study: OBI-833/OBI-821 Maintenance for Globo H+ Advanced Biliary Tract Cancer After Gemcitabine/Cisplatin
Sponsor: Chang Gung Memorial Hospital
Summary
A Phase 2 clinical trial protocol for evaluating the efficacy and safety of OBI-833/OBI-821, a carbohydrate-conjugate vaccine combined with an immune adjuvant, as maintenance therapy in combination with first-line gemcitabine and cisplatin chemotherapy for patients with Globo H-positive advanced biliary tract cancer. The study is designed as a single-arm trial with 30 patients who have achieved stable disease, partial response, or complete response after 3±1 months of initial chemotherapy. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival, with secondary endpoints including overall survival, tumor response, and safety profile. The treatment regimen involves subcutaneous injections of OBI-833/OBI-821 on a gradually decreasing frequency schedule for up to 80 weeks. The trial also includes exploratory objectives to assess immune responses and biomarkers. This study aims to address the unmet need for improved treatment options in advanced biliary tract cancer by leveraging the potential of immunotherapy targeting the Globo H antigen.

Interventions
OBI-833/OBI-821
OBI-833 is a glycoconjugate that consists of Globo H, a unique tumor-associated carbohydrate antigen (TACA), covalently linked to cross-reacting material 197 (CRM197), an inactive and nontoxic form of diphtheria toxin (DT) acting as the carrier protein. OBI-821 is a saponin-based adjuvant derived from the bark of the Quillaja saponaria Molina tree. It is a purified saponin adjuvant structurally similar to adjuvant QS-21. The OBI-833/OBI-821 combination represents a carbohydrate-conjugate vaccine combined with an immune adjuvant, intended to serve as an active cancer immunotherapy.
