Ott et al. report the results of a phase 1B study in which a personalized neoantigen vaccine was combined with programmed death receptor-1 blockade in patients with advanced cancers. The study provides a framework for combinatorial vaccine therapies that could mount robust T cell responses, enhance tumor killing, and provide clinical benefit.
