In other ongoing research looking at cancer vaccines, the Cancer Research Institute, in partnership with the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, is studying a combination of a vaccine with the adjuvants Flt3 ligand and poly-ICLC plus the checkpoint inhibitor nivolumab (Opdivo) and standard-of-care radiation in castrate-resistant prostate cancer. Results are expected in the next six to 12 months, said Jill O’Donnell-Tormey, chief executive officer and director of scientific affairs at the Cancer Research Institute.
