SITC will take place November 5 to 9, 2025, in National Harbor, Maryland, USA.
Poster details
Title: “Profiling of the neoantigen-specific T cell response after adjuvant TG4050 individualized therapeutic vaccination in a randomized Phase 1 trial for locally advanced resected HPV negative HNSCC”.
- Poster and abstract number: 502
- Date: November 8, 2025
- Author: C. Le Tourneau
The abstract will be available on the SITC website on November 4, 2025, at 9 a.m. ET.
TG4050 is an individualized immunotherapy being developed for solid tumors that is based on Transgene’s myvac® technology and powered by NEC’s longstanding artificial intelligence (AI) expertise. TG4050 is being evaluated in a randomized multicenter Phase I/II clinical trial as a single agent in the adjuvant treatment of HPV-negative head and neck cancers ().
Transgene previously presented in a rapid oral presentation at the ASCO conference in June 2025, that all patients from Phase I who received TG4050 remained disease-free after a minimum of 2-year follow-up, comparing favorably to the observational arm which saw 3 out of 16 patients relapse during the same time period.
Transgene and NEC are continuing the joint development of TG4050 in this indication with a Phase II extension of the trial, which is currently enrolling patients.
