3. PROTOCOL SYNOPSIS  
 
Name of sponsor: Targovax ASA (Oslo, Norway), although ICON Australia will act as 
the local sponsor and legal representative in Australia 
 
Study identification code: CT TG02-01 
 
Title of the study: A Non-Randomised Open-Label Phase Ib Exploratory Study of TG02-
treatment as Monotherapy or in Combination with Pembrolizumab to Assess Safety and 
Immune Activation in Patients with Locally Advanced Primary and Recurrent Oncogenic 
RAS Exon 2 Mutant Colorectal Cancer 
 
Investigational medicinal products (IMP): TG02 administered with granulocyte 
macrophage stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in the form of recombinant human GM-CSF 
expressed in E-coli, the PD-1 inhibitor pembrolizumab (only in Part II)  
 
The TG02-treatment consists of an intradermal injection of GM-CSF followed by an 
injection of TG02. The GM-CSF is to be given 15-30 minutes before TG02. 
 
The doses to be administered are 0.10 mL of reconstituted, lyophilized GM-CSF (0.30 
mg/mL) and 0.1 mL reconstituted, lyophilized TG02 (8.0 mg/mL).  
 
Study period: 
The start date of the study (first patient first visit) is anticipated to be mid-2016.  
The total duration of the study is expected to be 2.5 years, approximately 15 months for 
Part I and 15 months for Part II. The total duration of the study will be dependent on 
whether the study proceeds to Part II or not. Patients will be on study for approximately 
14-20 weeks. 
 
Part I (Monotherapy activation - Only TG02-treatment): 
12 months enrolment (Assumption: 0.3 patients/site/month at 2-5 sites) 
After screening, a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 14 weeks between initiation of TG02 
treatment and surgical resection is anticipated with a follow up period of up to 6 weeks 
after surgery. 
Total study duration for Part I:  approximately 15 months   
First patient first visit (FPFV):  3Q 2016 
Excepted last patient last visit (LPLV):  4Q2018 
 
Part II (Combination activation - TG02-treatment + pembrolizumab): 
12 months enrolment (Assumption: 0.3 patients/site/month at 2-5 sites) 
After screening a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 14 weeks between initiation of TG02-
treatment+pembrolizumab and surgical resection is anticipated with a follow up period of 
up to 6 weeks after surgery. 
Total study duration for Part II: approximately 15 months

Excepted LPLV:  4Q 2019  
 
Phase of development: Ib 
 
Participating countries and number of sites: 2-5 sites (Australia and New Zealand). 
Other sites may be added as required.  
Number of subjects: In Part I approximately 4-6 patients will be enrolled, in Part II up to 
10 patients will be enrolled. 
 
Study objectives:  
Primary Objectives: 
• To determine the safety of TG02-treatment 
• To evaluate the systemic TG02 specific immune responses and to investigate tumour T 
cell infiltration in tumour specimens 
Secondary Objectives: 
• To investigate changes in immunological and pathological markers in tumour tissue  
• To investigate changes in FDG PET-CT images 
• To investigate changes in CEA  
Exploratory Objectives: 
• 
To investigate changes in circulating tumour cells and/or circulating tumour DNA 
• 
To investigate the functionality of RAS mutation specific T cells in tumour tissue and 
peripheral blood 
 
Study design:  
This is a non-randomised, open label Phase Ib exploratory study to investigate the safety 
of and immune responses to TG02-treatment, first as monotherapy (Part I) and thereafter 
as combination therapy with pembrolizumab (Part II) in patients with locally advanced 
primary and recurrent RAS mutant colorectal cancer eligible for radical pelvic surgery at 
time of enrolment. 
 
Part I 
Approximately 4-6 patients diagnosed with locally advanced and recurrent RAS mutant 
colorectal cancer will be given TG02-treatment for up to 10 weeks (up to six TG02-
treatments; week 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 10 if surgery occurs beyond week 10) prior to surgery.  
 
TG02 is an eight peptide vaccine. Significant clinical data exist for its precursor vaccine, 
TG01, which contains 7 of the 8 mutant RAS peptides present in TG02. TG01 in 
combination with GM-CSF has been shown to be immunogenic and well tolerated up to 
11 weeks of treatment.  
 
Since one of the eight peptides in TG02 has not previously been administered to humans, 
the first 3 patients will be enrolled in a sequential manner with a minimum lag time of 4 
weeks between dosing of the first 3 subjects to ensure an acceptable safety profile.

The safety data collected during the first 4 weeks for the 3 first patients will be reviewed 
by a Safety Steering Committee (SSC) consisting of Sponsor representatives, the Principal 
Investigator, relevant Sub-Investigators and one Independent Physician.  
As a general rule the following will be reviewed to provide a guide to safety decisions: 
 
Unacceptable toxicities will be defined as follows (based on NCI Criteria for Adverse 
Events (CTCAE) (v4.03: June 14, 2010) for reactions considered related to TG02 and/or 
GM-CSF: 
 • Injection site reaction of  ≥ grade 3 (grade 3: Ulceration or necrosis; severe 
tissue damage; operative intervention indicated, grade 4: Life-threatening consequences; 
urgent intervention indicated, grade 5: death). 
• Other relevant clinically significant toxicity ≥ grade 3 (excluding treatable nausea and 
vomiting). However for certain toxicities such as laboratory assessments without a clear 
clinical correlate, a discussion in the SSC may take place to evaluate if this AE should be 
assessed as DLT. 
• ≥ Grade 3 'allergic reaction/anaphylactic reaction' in spite of prophylaxis with 
antihistamine and steroids. 
 
All AEs and SAEs will be reviewed and will also be compared to those of the precursor 
vaccine TG01 (see Investigator’s Brochure). 
 
If more than 1 out of the 3 patients has DLT the SSC will review the nature of the events 
and make a final decision if the rest of the patients may be enrolled. 
 
When all safety data, systemic immune responses (Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity 
(DTHs)) and tumour material (analysed for intra-tumoural T cells infiltration) are available 
for all patients in Part I of the study, the Safety Steering Committee will evaluate the data 
to assess safety and preliminary immune activity and efficacy to make a recommendation 
whether the study will proceed or not to Part II of this protocol. In Part II 10 new patients, 
not previously treated with TG02, will be recruited. No patients treated in Part I will be 
treated in Part II. The SSC’s recommendation will form the basis for sponsor to make a 
final decision.  
 
Part II 
At the discretion of the sponsor, a decision will be made to initiate Part II of the study 
where up to 10 patients will be treated with TG02-treatment plus pembrolizumab for up to 
10 weeks (up to 6 TG02-treatments) prior to surgery. The first 3 patients will be enrolled 
in a sequential manner with a minimum lag time of 6 weeks between dosing of the first 3 
subjects to ensure an acceptable safety profile.  
The safety data collected during the first 6 weeks for the 3 first patients will be reviewed 
by the SSC in a similar manner as in Part I, as TG02-treatment in combination with 
pembrolizumab is a novel treatment.

Patients will be evaluated for safety at scheduled visits until surgery and at the end of study 
visit approximately 4 weeks after surgery. In addition, after any TG02-treatment the 
patients will be monitored for heart rate and blood pressure at 5, 10 and 30 minutes and 
then every 30 minutes thereafter for up to 2 hours post administration. 
A FDG PET-CT will be performed before TG02-treatment is initiated (baseline scan 
should be within the last 4 weeks prior to first TG02-treatment) and a second scan as close 
as possible before surgery.  
Tumour samples for assessment of immune response will be taken pre TG02-treatment in 
the form of a study specific biopsy and at time of surgery by analysis of the resected tumour 
tissue. If a pre TG02-treatment biopsy has been taken for diagnostic workup at the hospital, 
this biopsy, if adequate for the study specific immune analysis and no intervening 
treatment has been given, can be used as the study specific biopsy if taken within the last 
4 week prior to first TG02-treatment. If for any reason the patient does not proceed to 
surgery, a biopsy will be obtained at the time of planned surgery if possible. In addition, 
archival biopsy samples from both initial staging (primary diagnosis) and re staging will 
be utilised, as needed. In the patient information sheet and informed consent form 
(PIS/ICF), patients will be asked to give consent to the use of archived biopsy material. 
These archival samples will be used to assess RAS-mutation status and other baseline 
immune assessments. 
Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity (DTH) tests will be performed at week 1, week 4, week 6 
and week 8 (if surgery is scheduled for week 8, the DTH test should be performed two 
days before surgery). If surgery is scheduled for after week 10, and the patient has had 
only negative DTH tests up to and including week 8, an additional DTH test should be 
performed at week 10. 
Blood samples will be collected for in vitro assessment of TG02-specific immune 
responses (Immunology sample, PBMC) will be collected at baseline (Day 1, Week 1) and 
week 8 (Day 64). If surgery is scheduled to occur after week 10, a third sample will be 
taken as close as possible to the date of surgery. 
 
In total, the study will enrol up to 16 patients for Part I and II.

4. BACKGROUND AND STUDY RATIONALE 
 
4.1. Antigen specific anticancer immunotherapy 
Significant advances in the rapidly evolving area of anticancer immunotherapy over recent 
years have led to the availability of several immunotherapeutic agents for patients with 
various advanced solid tumours. These include checkpoint inhibitors for metastatic 
melanoma and advanced lung cancer, and vaccine therapy for metastatic prostate cancer. 
Sipuleucel T, an autologous cellular vaccine, was shown to increase overall survival in 
patients with metastatic prostate cancer (Kantoff 2010), resulting in FDA approval of the 
vaccine. Previously, clinical trials evaluating various antigen specific immunotherapeutic 
agents in patients with colorectal cancer have shown promising results, however, none of 
these agents have since translated to clinical use and the effect of generating RAS-specific 
immunity is not known. 
 
 
KRAS mutations occur in about 50% of colorectal cancers, and mostly (40%) within exon 
2 codons 12 and 13 of the RAS oncogene (Markman 2014). In patients with KRAS mutant 
colorectal tumours, mutant RAS peptides are considered to be attractive targets for vaccine 
therapy with the aim of improving overall survival and/or reducing recurrence rate. 
Previous immunotherapeutic strategies using KRAS mutant peptides as vaccines have been 
shown to be feasible for colorectal cancer, lung cancer, and pancreatic cancer, with 
evidence for their induction of specific immune responses and early phase studies 
supporting their safety and tolerability. In a Phase I/II study by Gjertsen et al., a KRAS 
mutant peptide vaccine in combination with GM-CSF administered to patients with 
advanced pancreatic cancer resulted in RAS mutation specific T cell immune responses 
(DTH and/or T cell proliferation) in 58% of the evaluable patients, with increased overall 
survival in this patient subgroup (Gjertsen 2001). 
 
The presence of RAS mutations has also been shown to be a negative factor for the 
additional treatment of patients with EGFR inhibitors and data generated has demonstrated 
that patients receiving cetuximab in combination with chemotherapy do not derive any 
benefit versus chemotherapy alone (Sorich 2014; Van Cutsem 2015). Even in patients 
eligible for cetuximab therapy, resistance may occur due to RAS mutation (Misale 2012). 
This demonstrates a need for therapy targeted at RAS mutated colorectal cancer. 
 
To further enhance patient immune response to a mutant RAS peptide vaccine, the addition 
of a checkpoint inhibitor, e.g. pembrolizumab, may be of benefit.  Preclinical data suggests 
that colorectal cancer, considered in general poorly immunogenic even in the presence of 
RAS mutations, may potentially become more responsive to checkpoint inhibition through 
priming of the immune system e.g. following radiation, cytotoxics, vaccination, or a 
combination of such therapies (Dovedi 2014; Cross 2015). Very recently FDA has granted 
breakthrough therapy designation to pembrolizumab, an anti-PD-1 therapy for treating 
patients with microsatellite instability high (MSIhigh) metastatic colorectal cancer (FDA 
News Nov. 9, 2015) (Le 2015). Since patients with both RAS mutation and MSIhigh 
colorectal cancer are very uncommon (Breivik 1997) this represent a further step forward 
for check point inhibitors for the treatment of colorectal cancer. 
 
4.2. TG02 
RAS exon 2 mutations are only found in cancer cells and mutant RAS peptide vaccines 
can, if given in combination with GM-CSF, induce specific anti-cancer immune response

and underlie the rationale for RAS peptide vaccination in colorectal cancer patients. The 
presence of peptides reflecting the common single amino acid substitutions found in RAS 
exon 2 mutations leads to host T cell recognition of the specific tumoural targets containing 
these single amino acid substitutions in mutant RAS proteins. A number of clinical studies 
have been performed confirming the feasibility of vaccination of patients with colorectal 
cancer using vaccines containing mutated RAS peptides (of codons 12 and 13) in colorectal 
and pancreatic cancer patients. Pilot studies have been performed demonstrating safety with 
17-mer mutant RAS peptide vaccination in pancreatic and colorectal cancer patients, with 
no systemic side effects or delayed toxicities. The addition of immune adjuvants e.g. IL-2, 
GM-CSF or both, to mutant RAS peptide vaccines has also been evaluated (Rahma 2013).  
 
TG02 is a peptide vaccine that contains a mixture of 8 synthetic peptides (all 17-mer) 
representing fragments of the 8 most common RAS exon 2 oncogenic mutant p21RAS 
proteins. The induction of host immune response against these RAS mutant epitopes would 
potentially result in tumour cell killing. Subsequent in-situ exposure of the RAS mutant 
antigens to specific T cells previously induced and activated by TG02 may lead to further 
epitope spreading i.e. cross presentation and T cell recognition of a range of tumour 
associated antigens.   
 
The pre-clinical development of TG02 to date has comprised of a series of in-vitro studies 
using human lymphocytes and murine splenocytes as well as repeated dosing in the mouse 
using the intended clinical route.  As expected, the resultant toxicology study findings were 
unremarkable. In a local tolerance study in mice, TG02 was shown to induce slight 
erythema and to bear minimal inflammatory potential (GM-CSF was considered the major 
trigger of inflammation, which supports the use as adjuvant). In-vitro studies confirmed the 
generation of immune responses with increased cellular proliferation and cytokine release 
following repeated administration of TG02. As the effects of TG02 are thought to be 
mediated via local immunological processing at the intradermal administration site, its 
effects are not considered to be directly associated with serum concentrations of drug and 
thus would be immeasurable; consequently, formal pharmacodynamics studies have not 
been conducted  (TG02 Investigator Brochure). 
 
TG02 has been administered to 4 humans. The RAS oncogene peptides have no intrinsic 
activity per se, but in combination with GM-CFS immune activity can be elicited. The 
Safety Steering Committee evaluated the safety data after 3 patients had each completed 4 
weeks of treatment. There were no safety issues in these patients. Furthermore, no SAE 
related to trial medication has been reported for any patients including the 4th patient who 
has completed the trial. In addition, significant clinical data exists for its precursor vaccine, 
TG01, which contains 7 of the 8 mutant RAS peptides present in TG02. TG01 in 
combination with GM-CSF has been shown to be immunogenic, with acceptable 
tolerability. TG01 has been investigated in an early Phase II clinical trial, with evaluation 
of its efficacy in the adjuvant setting for pancreatic cancer patients in combination with 
gemcitabine. In the modified cohort of this trial, where the induction course of TG01 is 
similar to that used in the TG02 study, only expected adverse events have been related to 
the treatment and all of these have been mild in severity (see Investigators Brochure) with 
the exception of one Grade 3 event of fatigue. No SAEs related to TG01 or GM-CSF were 
reported. The trial has completed recruitment. Final report is expected Q4 2018. 
 
As TG01 has been shown to be immunogenic with acceptable tolerability with the 
exception of hypersensitivity reactions which appear to be associated with the use of

gemcitabine as events occurred only after several cycles of chemotherapy or in the period 
immediately after the end of gemcitabine treatment (Palmer 2015). It is anticipated that 
TG02 will have a similar good safety profile in the absence of chemotherapy. 
 
TG02 has no intrinsic activity per se and is administered in combination with the 
immunomodulator GM-CSF. This GM-CSF/TG02 combination is referred to as TG02-
treatment in this study protocol. 
 
4.3. PD-1 (Programmed Cell Death 1) receptor and its inhibition 
PD-1 is a key immune inhibitory receptor present on the surface of T lymphocytes that on 
binding to programmed cell death ligands (PD-L1 or PD-L2) on tumour cells or antigen 
presenting cells, results in a negative T cell effector immune response. Phase I studies 
assessing efficacy of anti-PD-1 antibodies, including nivolumab, have shown anti-tumour 
efficacy in melanoma, renal cell carcinoma, and lung carcinoma; these tumours were found 
to have upregulation of PD-L1 on cell surfaces. This suggested that disruption of the PD-
1/PD-L1 signalling pathway mediated the objective response of the anti-PD-1 antibody. 
Several recent clinical studies of nivolumab and pembrolizumab showed impressive 
response rates and significantly increased overall survival in melanoma and non-small cell 
lung cancer patients, leading to FDA and TGA approval for these agents.   
 
4.4. Pembrolizumab  
Pembrolizumab (MK3475, formerly known as lambrolizumab), is a fully humanized 
humanised monoclonal IgG4-kappa isotype antibody against PD-1.  A Phase I study of 
pembrolizumab confirmed safety and tolerability at doses of 1 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg and 10 
mg/kg administered intravenously every two weeks, with maximal tolerated dosing not 
reached, and efficacy demonstrated in all dose levels.  Subsequently, data from a Phase I 
study expansion cohort of melanoma patients receiving 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks, 10 mg/kg 
every 3 weeks or 2 mg/kg every 3 weeks showed equivalent response rates across all three 
cohorts, with significantly reduced toxicities in the latter two groups of 4% and 9% 
respectively. More recently, a Phase I study of pembrolizumab in non-small cell lung 
cancer patients, previously treated or untreated, revealed objective response rates of 19.4% 
in unselected patients, versus 45% in those with greater than 50% of PD-L1 expression; in 
this enriched population, the median progression free survival was 6.3 months, with overall 
survival not reached (Garon 2015).  
 
In a long term follow up study of patients who had received the anti-PD1 antibody BMS-
936558, one patient with metastatic colorectal cancer patient, of MSI high subtype, 
undergoing intermittent dosing of BMS-936558 achieved a complete and prolonged 
response, remaining disease free at 3 years (Lipson 2013).  Subsequently, a Phase II study 
showed that pembrolizumab (at 10 mg/kg administered intravenously 2 weekly) increased 
progression free survival in microsatellite unstable metastatic colorectal cancer patients 
with a disease control rate of 90% and overall response rate of 40%. Unfortunately, results 
from this study, in addition to previous first in human Phase I anti-PD-1 antibody trials 
revealed minimal response rates in patients with microsatellite stable disease, which 
comprises the majority of colorectal cancers (Le 2015).  
Data from preclinical models suggest that colorectal cancers could potentially be converted 
to a more “immunogenic” cancer type through priming of the immune system e.g. 
following radiation or vaccine therapy, leading to increased responses to check point 
inhibitors and immunomodulation (Dovedi 2014; Cross 2015; Gerber 2014). Thus, the

combination of anti-PD1 therapy and mutant RAS peptide vaccine therapy may be a 
promising strategy. 
 
4.5. Locally Advanced Primary and Recurrent Colorectal Cancer 
Neo-adjuvant chemoradiation prior to total mesorectal excision is considered the standard 
of care in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer where R0 resection can be expected, 
with significant improvements in long term overall survival rates over the past two decades. 
Chemoradiotherapy, either conventional or short course (CRT or SCCRT)), is usually given 
as neoadjuvant treatment. Standard total mesorectal excision should achieve a curative 
resection. The use of CRT or SCCRT aims to reduce local recurrence (Glynne-Jones 2017). 
Despite this, 5-20% of these patients will experience local recurrence, at which time, their 
disease is more often than not incurable, with five year survival rates reported between 13% 
and 47% (Rahbari 2011). 
Patients presenting with pelvic disease recurrence are often considered for resection, 
including aggressive radical debulking surgery or pelvic exenteration, which is associated 
with significant operative risks. Pre-operative re-irradiation may be offered prior to 
resection in selected patients, however, late toxicities are of concern with some patients not 
being suitable candidates. A recent publication evaluating five year survival rates of 
patients who achieved an R0 resection was 39% compared to only 22% in patients who 
were treated without surgery or underwent subtotal tumour removal. 
 
Routinely there is a period of more than 8 to 12 weeks between diagnosis and resection and 
treatment of locally advanced disease or recurrence to resection according to the usual 
practise of the hospital, which allows a window of opportunity for patients to undergo 
systemic therapy (e.g. with vaccination and/or check point inhibition) whilst awaiting 
surgery. As per Figure 1, patients will be consented for the trial at the time of the diagnosis 
of the disease recurrence, once they have completed other anti-cancer therapy as applicable 
(such as radiotherapy/chemoradiotherapy). 
 
The presence of locally advanced disease or recurrence will be confirmed by appropriate 
diagnostic imaging (the actual types of scans and other tests can vary in different 
institutions and this protocol does not define the nature of these tests) as per standard 
clinical practice at each hospital.   
 
This provides justification for evaluation of TG02, with or without PD-1 inhibition, in 
patients with newly diagnosed locally advanced primary and recurrent colorectal cancer 
prior to radical surgery.  
 
This is a window of opportunity study and, because surgery will not be delayed as a result 
of the TG02-treatment, it is not expected that the immunotherapy will have any direct 
benefits on the outcomes of surgery or the rate of cure. In the time that the patient is 
normally expected to wait from the time of the diagnosis and treatment of their disease  and 
the time of surgery there is an opportunity to see what effect immunotherapy with this 
specific RAS vaccine has in eliciting a specific intra-tumoural T cell response. 
 
While it would not be anticipated that any clinically relevant changes to tumour size would 
occur as a result of vaccination alone the ability to generate RAS specific T cells is 
important for two principal reasons: 1. The finding of cytotoxic T cells in the tumour will 
provide a rationale for vaccination overall and 2. It would add weight to the argument that

Page 24 of 74 
 
even if R0 resection is possible, adjuvant immunotherapy might be an important addition 
to other therapy post-surgery, which may enhance disease-free and overall survival. 
 
4.6. Rationale for the study 
Patients with locally advanced primary and recurrent colorectal cancer are often 
considered for radical pelvic surgery. This “window” allows an opportunity to use RAS 
peptides to induce an immune response and study whether this promotes a cytotoxic T-
cell infiltration into the tumour and induce histologically at least tumour cell death.  
TG02-treatment alone or in combination with a PD-1 inhibitor, given prior to resection in 
patients with locally advanced primary and recurrent colorectal cancer may stimulate this 
immune response and provide evidence that vaccination with TG02 peptides induces 
enhanced specific T-cell tumour killing and this provides an important therapeutic 
intervention in the treatment of colorectal cancer. The hypothesis that there may be a 
requirement for a PD-1 inhibitor to facilitate the immune response induced by the TG02 
vaccination is supported by the preliminary data from Part 1 of the study. The data 
suggest that PD-1 expression is seen on the cytotoxic T-cells as well as the T-helper cells 
in the peripheral blood as well as PDL-1 and PD-1 expression is seen on T cells in the 
surgical specimens. These results may indicate that the tumours would possibly respond 
to the addition of a PD-1 inhibitor. 
 
4.7. Rationale for dose 
The traditional approach to dose selection for cytotoxic anticancer agents is to escalate the 
dose until dse limiting toxicity.  This concept of maximum tolerated dose is not applicable 
for peptides that generally lack any inherent toxicity and that are for local administration 
in the skin.  TG02 is for induction of cellular immune responses, and consequently the 
immune response rate is the most important parameter to consider for determining an 
appropriate dose. 
 
The rationale for the dose is based on studies performed with its precursor vaccine, TG01, 
which contains 7 of the 8 mutant RAS peptides present in TG02. The rationale for 
selecting the dose of 0.1 mg of each peptide per administration stems from the 
observations from a dose exploring study in colorectal cancer patients (CTN RAS 97005).  
In this trial the patients were first given four weekly administrations of a single RAS 
peptide at the dose of 0.1 mg per administration and subsequently, after three weeks rest, 
four weekly administrations of 0.3 mg peptide.  An additional dose of 0.1 mg peptide was 
administered without GM-CSF at a separate site to elicit DTH.  Indeed, more immune 
responders were seen after the second cycle, 13 versus 7 after the first cycle.  Other 
studies with constant dose (0.1 mg per peptide) have demonstrated a similar increase in 
number of recorded immune responders after administration of boosters after the initial 4 
week cycle.  In a study with a cocktail containing four RAS peptides (dose 0.10 mg per 
peptide) in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer (CTN RAS 97004) the number of 
DTH responders was increased from 11 after the initial 4 week cycle, to 16 responders 
after only two additional administrations (week 6 and 10).  This suggested that the 0.10 
mg and 0.30 mg per peptide were immunologically equivalent in the CTN RAS 98005 
study and that increasing the TG01 dose beyond the current 0.7 mg dose (0.1 mg per 
peptide) is unlikely to heighten further the levels of specific immune responses.  
Alternatively, reducing the TG01 dose to levels lower than 0.1 mg per peptide may result 
in sub-optimal T cell responses.

Given the acceptable safety profile and levels of T cell responses observed to date with 
the current dose of  0.7 mg (0.1mg each peptide) of TG01 , the clinical development of 
TG02 will commence using the same dose for each peptides (0.1 mg) with a total TG02 
dose of 0.8 mg. TG02 will be given together  with GM-CSF as immunomodulator. Please 
see the TG02 Investigators Brochure (IB) for more information. 
 
4.8. Rationale for dose regimen 
 
TG02 
 
TG02 given in the TG02-treatment will be administered to the patient at week 1, 2, 3, 4, 
and 6. If surgery is scheduled after week 10 one more TG02-treatment will be given in 
week 10. In addition to this TG02 will at certain time points (week 1, week 4, week 6, 
week 8 and possible week 10), be administered intradermally (without prior 
administration of GM-CSF) as a DTH test to evaluate the immunological response. The 
rationale for this regimen is based on the results from the previous and ongoing studies 
with TG01/GM-CSF that demonstrate that prevailing RAS mutation specific T cells 
responses are induced in cancer patients after 4-6 weeks of vaccination. 
 
Pembrolizumab 
 
Although the licensed dosing regimen for pembrolizumab is 3-weekly, in this window 
of opportunity study there is limited time between the start of TG02 vaccinations and 
surgery. Also, in order that the scheduling of study visits can be minimised to avoid 
extra patient visits, it is proposed to administer the pembrolizumab 2-weekly. Based on 
the data reported from the KEYNOTE 006 study for melanoma (Schachter 2017), the 
efficacy was similar between the 2-weekly and 3-weekly schedule with very similar 
safety profiles. Additionally, time needs to be allowed for a TG02 specific immune 
response to be induced; therefore, pembrolizumab will be started at week 4 and 
continued two-weekly until surgery

6. STUDY DESIGN AND DESCRIPTION OF THE STUDY 
 
This is a non-randomised open labelled Phase Ib exploratory study to investigate the 
safety and immune responses of TG02-treatment.  
 
The study is divided into two parts, where after Part I the sponsor will make a decision 
as to the initiation of Part II. Part II will start after Part I has been completed. Patients 
will only be allowed to participate in either Part I or Part II of the study. 
 
Part I is designed to investigate the objectives of the study with TG02-treatment as 
monotherapy, and the Part II is to investigate TG02-treatment in combination with 
pembrolizumab. Part I and Part II will enrol approximately 4-6 and up to 10 patients 
respectively.  
 
6.1. Endpoints 
Primary endpoints: 
• Safety: 
– Adverse events  
– Laboratory assessments 
– Vital signs 
• Systemic immune responses assessed by: 
– TG02-specific DTH response 
– Presence of TG02 specific T-cells in peripheral blood 
– Change in intra-tumoural lymphocytes   
 
Secondary endpoints: 
• Immune suppression factors in tumour specimens 
• Pathological responses and markers of apoptosis in tumour specimens  
• Change in standard uptake values (SUV) assessed by FDG PET-CT 
• Change in CEA 
 
Exploratory Endpoints:  
• Change in circulating tumour cells and/or circulating tumour DNA 
• Functionality of RAS mutation specific T cells in tumour tissue and peripheral blood 
 
6.2. Study Design 
The patients with locally advanced primary and recurrent colorectal cancer will be 
considered for the study. A multi-disciplinary team (MDT) at the sites will coordinate the 
staging and work up of the patients and select appropriate patients for curative surgery.  
Selected patients for surgery will either receive chemo-radiation treatment (3-5 weeks) or 
have no further treatment before they are being consented for the study, see patient flow 
and timelines in Figure 1.

The patient will be defined as on study from the date of signed informed consent until 
the end of study (EOS) visit which should be scheduled after surgery.  
  
The study is divided into two parts, Part I followed by Part II if decision of such will be 
made by the sponsor. Part II may start when all safety data, systemic immune responses 
(Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity (DTHs)) and tumour material (analysed for intra-
tumoural T cell infiltration) are available for 4-6 patients in Part I of the study.  The 
sponsor, after input from the Steering Committee, will evaluate the data to assess safety 
and preliminary immune activity and efficacy of TG02-treatment, and make a 
recommendation to proceed or not to Part II of this protocol.  
 
Patients from Part I will not participate in Part II. 
 
The study design for Part I is shown in Figure 2 and the study design for Part II in 
Figure 3.

Part I 
Approximately 4-6 patients diagnosed with locally advanced primary and recurrent 
colorectal cancer will be given TG02-treatment for up to 10 weeks (up to 6 TG02-
treatments) prior to surgery.  
 
TG02 is an eight peptide vaccine. Significant clinical data exists for its precursor vaccine, 
TG01, which contains 7 of the 8 mutant RAS peptides present in TG02. TG01 in 
combination with GM-CSF has been shown to be immunogenic and well tolerated up to 11 
weeks of treatment.  
 
Since one of the eight peptides in TG02 has not previously been administered to 
humans, the first 3 patients will be enrolled in a sequential manner with a minimum lag 
time of 4 weeks between dosing of the first 3 subjects to ensure an acceptable safety 
profile.   
 
The safety data collected during the first 4 weeks for the three first patients will be 
reviewed by a SSC consisting of Sponsor representatives, the Principal Investigator, 
relevant Sub-Investigators and one Independent Physician.  
 
As a general rule the following will be reviewed to provide a guide to safety decisions: 
 
Unacceptable toxicities will be defined as follows (based on NCI Criteria for Adverse 
Events (CTCAE) (v4.03: June 14, 2010) for reactions considered related to TG02 and/or 
GM-CSF: 
 • Injection site reaction of  ≥ grade 3 (grade 3: Ulceration or necrosis; severe 
tissue damage; operative intervention indicated, grade 4: Life-threatening consequences; 
urgent intervention indicated, grade 5: death). 
• Other relevant clinically significant toxicity ≥ grade 3 (excluding treatable nausea and 
vomiting). However, for certain toxicities such as laboratory assessments without a clear 
clinical correlate, a discussion in the SSC may take place to evaluate if this AE should be 
assessed as DLT. 
• ≥Grade 3 'allergic reaction/anaphylactic reaction' in spite of prophylaxis with 
antihistamine and steroids. 
 
All AEs and SAEs will be reviewed and will also be compared to those of the precursor 
vaccine TG01 (see Investigator’s Brochure). 
 
If more than 1 out of the 3 patients has DLT the SSC will review the nature of the events 
and make a final decision if the rest of the patients may be enrolled. 
 
When all safety data, systemic immune responses (DTHs) and tumour material 
(analysed for intra-tumoural T cells infiltration) are available for all patients in Part I of 
the study, the sponsor, with input from the Steering Committee, will evaluate the data 
to assess safety and preliminary immune activity and  efficacy to make the decision to 
proceed or not to Part II of this protocol. In Part II up to10 new patients, not previously 
treated with TG02, will be recruited. No patients treated in Part I will be treated in Part 
II. 
 
The SSC will review the tolerability of TG02-treatment in accordance with the SSC 
charter and this review will be based on an assessment of adverse events, laboratory

findings and, in particular the occurrence of hypersensitivity reactions. Toxicity grading 
will use NCI CTCAE version 4.03. 
 
Part II 
Up to 10 patients will be treated with TG02-treatment plus pembrolizumab for up to 10 
weeks (up to six TG02-treatments and up to 4 pembrolizumab infusions) prior to 
surgery.  
Again, since one of the eight peptides in TG02 is first in human, and that the use of 
pembrolizumab will be in a novel setting, as a precaution, the combination of TG02-
treatment and pembrolizumab will be initiated first in 3 patients and evaluated for safety 
prior to subsequent recruitment of patients according to the same procedure as described 
above for Part I. The first 3 patients will be enrolled in a sequential manner with a minimum 
lag time of 6 weeks between dosing of the first 3 subjects to ensure an acceptable safety 
profile. The safety data collected during the first 6 weeks for the 3 first patients will be 
reviewed by the SSC. 
  
6.3. Study Duration 
The total duration of the study is expected to be 2.5 years, approximately 15 months for 
Part I and 15 months for Part II. The total duration of the study will be dependent on 
whether the study proceeds to Part II or not.  
The patient will be in the study for a maximum of 20 weeks. The treatment period will be 
up to 10 weeks, dependent on the timing of scheduled surgery. The patient will be 
followed up to 6 weeks after surgery.   
 
6.4. Study Visit Schedule 
The schedule of visits (Table 6-1, Schedule of visits) reflects the assessments that will occur 
during the study, i.e. screening period, treatment period, and end of study. Patients will be 
screened for the study over a period of 14 days. The TG02-treatment period will be up to 
maximum 10 weeks and the end of study visit will be approximately 6 weeks after surgery. 
• Weekly visits should occur within a window of ± 2 days.  
• Two weekly visits should occur within a window of ± 4 days.  
• End of study visit (EOS) should occur within 6 weeks after surgery. 
Surgery should occur between week 8 and 14, if not postponed due to some unforeseen 
reasons, which will be documented. If for any reason, the patient will not have surgery, a 
biopsy will be obtained at the time of planned surgery if possible. 
All trial treatment-related toxicities and SAEs must be followed until resolution 
unless, in the investigator’s opinion, the condition is unlikely to resolve because of the 
patient’s underlying disease. 
 
6.4.1. Screening Period 
Before initiating any screening activities, the scope of the study should be explained to 
each patient. Patients should be advised of any known risks inherent in the planned 
procedures, of any alternative treatment options, of their right to withdraw from the 
study at any time for any reason, and of their right to privacy. After this explanation, 
patients should be asked to sign an EC approved statement of informed consent. 
The screening visit will determine patient eligibility according to the inclusion/ 
exclusion criteria (section 7.3 and 7.4). The following assessments will be performed 
during this period:

• Demographics and medical history (including detailed information about medical 
history of colorectal cancer and previous treatments) 
• Medication and treatment history and concomitant medication (including 
medication taken in the 4 weeks before screening period, relevant information 
should be captured in the CRF) 
• Urine or serum pregnancy test (for women of childbearing potential) 
• Physical exam (review of the major body systems, vital signs (height, weight, heart 
rate, blood pressure, tympanic body temperature) 
• 12-lead ECG evaluation 
• ECOG Performance status  
• Blood samples for routine haematology, serum biochemistry and CEA biomarker 
(Table 6-1) 
• FDG PET-CT scan for tumour assessment of standard uptake value (SUV-max) as 
close as possible to first visit (should be within the last 4 weeks prior to first TG02-
treatment) 
• For patients receiving chemo-radiation before enrolment into study, core biopsy of 
target colorectal tumour should be taken after chemo-radiation and during the 
screening window (2 week) and as close as possible to the first TG02-treatment (day 
1, week 1). For patients not having chemo-radiation before enrolment into the study, 
a core biopsy of target colorectal tumour can be taken within the last 4 weeks but as 
close as possible to the first TG02-treatment (day 1, week 1). If a pre TG02-treatment 
biopsy has been taken for diagnostic workup as hospital procedure, this biopsy, if 
adequate for the study specific immune analysis and no intervening treatment has 
been given, can also be used. 
• Diagnostic CT/MRI scan according to hospital practice 
6.4.2. Treatment period (before surgery): 
The treatment period will be from Day 1 (Week 1) and up to surgery, which is planned for 
week 8 but can occur in a window up to week 14. The following assessments will be 
performed on Day 1, Day 8, Day 15, Day 22, Day 36, Day 50 and if surgery is after week 
10 (Day 64):  
• 
Vital signs (heart rate, blood pressure and tympanic body temperature) and ECOG 
performance status  
• 
Concomitant medications and adverse events will be monitored continuously  
• 
Physical examination, haematology and serum biochemistry (Table 9-1) before 
treatment (Day 1) and during treatment on Day 15, Day 36, Day 50 and if surgery after 
week 10 (Day 64).  
• 
TG02 treatment will be administered on Days 1, 8, 15, 22 and 36. If surgery after week 
10 TG02 treatment will also be given at week 10 (Day 64).  
• 
Pembrolizumab will be given on Days 22 and 36. If surgery is scheduled after 
Day50/Week 8, pembrolizumab will be given at Day 50/Week 8. If surgery scheduled 
after Day 64/Week 10, a further pembrolizumab infusion will be given at Day 64/Week 
10. 
• 
DTH tests will be performed at baseline (Day 1), week 4 (Day 22), week 6 (Day 36) 
and week 8 (Day 50) (if surgery is scheduled for week 8 the DTH test should be 
performed two days before surgery). If surgery is after week 10, and the patient has had 
negative DTH tests up to and including week 8, an additional DTH test should be 
performed at week 10 (Day 64).

• 
Blood samples for in vitro assessment of TG02-specific immune responses 
(Immunology sample, PBMC) will be taken at baseline (Day 1) and Day 50. If surgery 
is after week 10, an additional sample should be taken as close as possible up to the date 
of surgery (see separate Immune monitoring plan). 
• 
The CEA biomarker will be evaluated at Day 50. If surgery is after week 10 a third 
sample will be taken at Day 64 or just prior to surgery, whichever is the more 
appropriate.  
• 
Tumour samples for assessment of immune response will be taken at time of surgery. If 
for any reason the patient will not have surgery a biopsy will be obtained if possible at 
the latest by week 14 (see separate Immune monitoring plan). 
• FDG PET-CT scan for tumour assessment of standard uptake value (SUV-max) as 
close as possible up to date of surgery. 
• Circulating Tumour Cells (CTC) will be evaluated at Day 1 and Day 50. If surgery 
is after week 10, an additional sample can be taken as close as possible up to the 
date of surgery. 
 
Additional monitoring during the first 2 hours after any TG02-treatment: 
Following any TG02-treatment patients will be monitored for signs and symptoms of 
hypersensitivity as well as heart rate and blood pressure. A finger pulsometer or 
similar should be used to monitor heart rate for the first 30 minutes and blood pressure 
should be measured at 5 and 10 and 30 minutes and then every 30 minutes for up to 2 
hours post administration. Additional blood pressure measures should be taken if the 
patient experiences any of the following: dizziness, feeling cold or clammy, sweating, 
tingling in the mouth/tongue, itchy palms, feeling lightheaded, abdominal pain or 
breathlessness. 
Measures in case of anaphylaxis should follow the hospital policy and include the 
availability of intravenous access, oxygen, adrenaline and hydrocortisone. 
The administration of TG02 and post-treatment monitoring will occur in the 
Chemotherapy Treatment Unit or equivalent unit for each the institution with the patient 
sitting in an appropriate treatment chair or similar. 
 
 
6.4.3. End of Study visit (Up to 6 weeks after surgery) 
End of study visits to be scheduled during the hospitalized post-operative recovering 
period, up to 6 weeks after surgery. 
 
• Physical exam (review of the major body systems, vital signs (weight, heart rate, 
blood pressure and tympanic body temperature) 
• ECOG Performance status  
• Blood samples for routine haematology and serum biochemistry (Table 9-1) or will 
be recorded if already available in the patient medical record.   
• Adverse events and concomitant medications deemed to be related to TG02-
treatment 
 
6.4.4. Study Flow Chart 
The schedule of visits is presented in Table 6-1. After screening a minimum of eight and 
maximum 14 weeks between initiation of TG02-treatment and resection surgery is 
anticipated with a follow up period of 4 weeks after surgery.

a:  Deemed to be related to TG02-treatment 
 
b:  If surgery is scheduled to be done in week 8, DTH (TG02) injection to be done approximately 48 hours 
prior to surgery. 
 
c:  For patients receiving chemo-radiation before enrolment into study, core biopsy of target colorectal 
tumour should be taken after chemo-radiation and during the screening window (2 week) and as close as 
possible to the first TG02-treatment (day 1, week 1). For patients not having chemo-radiation before 
enrolment into the study, a core biopsy of target colorectal tumour can be taken within the last 4 weeks 
but as close as possible to the first TG02-treatment (day 1, week 1). If a pre TG02-treatment biopsy has 
been taken for diagnostic workup as hospital procedure, this biopsy, if adequate for the study specific 
immune analysis and no intervening treatment has been given, can also be used. 
d:  Tumour tissue taken during resection. If for any reason, the patient will not have surgery a biopsy will be 
obtained if possible. 
e:  To be done 2-0 days before surgery 
f:  If surgery is scheduled for week 10, there will be no TG02-treatment given at week 10. If no surgery at 
week 10, the last TG02-treatment to be given at week 10. 
g:  As close as possible up to the date of surgery. 
h:  At the visits when TG02 and/or TG02-treatment (and pembrolizumab in Part II) is scheduled, the 
assessments should be performed prior to the treatments. 
i:  Only to be taken for patients who have surgery after week 10 and had a negative DTH outcome at week 8. 
DTH (TG02) injection to be done 48 hours prior to surgery. 
j:  Assessment of DTH (TG02) injection site to be done 48 hours (+/- 4 hours) after each DTH (TG02) 
injections by the patient in a study specific diary. 
k:  Only applicable in Part II of the protocol 
l:  To be done prior to surgery 
m:  Allowed time for surgery (resection specimen) scheduled for week 8 is + 2 week and allowed time 
for surgery (resection specimen) scheduled for week 10 is + 4 week  
n:  Blood samples for routine haematology and serum biochemistry to be recorded if already available 
in the patient medical record (standard of care) 
o:  End of study visits to be scheduled during the hospitalized post-operative recovering period, up to 6 
weeks after surgery. 
p:  TG02-treatment is a combination of the two IMPs: GM-CSF and TG02. When TG02-treatment is 
administered, GM-CSF is to be given as an intradermal injection 15-30 minutes before the TG02 
intradermal injection. GM-CSF and TG02 are administered as 2 separate intradermal injections, 15 
to 30 minutes apart, at the same site in the upper arm. After any TG02-treatment the patients will be 
monitored for heart rate and blood pressure at 5, 10 and 30 minutes and then every 30 minutes 
thereafter for up to 2 hours post administration 
q:  In addition, TG02 will, at certain time points, be administered intradermally (without prior 
administration of GM-CSF) in the lower area of the contra lateral arm as DTH test. The administration 
of GM-CSF (0.10 mL reconstituted GM-CSF) and TG02 (0.10 mL reconstituted TG02) has to be 
strictly intradermal.  
r:  Should be within the last 4 weeks prior to first TG02-treatment. 
s:  If surgery is scheduled after Day 50/Week 8, pembrolizumab will be given at Day 50/Week 8.

8. TRIAL TREATMENT(S) AND REGIMEN OF INVESTIGATIONAL 
MEDICINAL PRODUCTS 
 
8.1. Identity of Investigational Medicinal Product(s) (IMPs) 
The TG02-treatment (GM-CSF/TG02) is manufactured according to Good Manufacturing 
Practice (GMP) standard. 
 
In Part I the IMPs consists of two different products in two separate vials, 1 vial 
containing TG02 and 1 vial containing GM-CSF. In Part II, in addition to TG02 and GM-
CSF, a third IMP, pembrolizumab will be used.  
 
TG02 
TG02 is a sterile dry white solid powder consisting of the eight drug substance peptides in 
equal amounts (weight net peptide) (Baccinex SA, Courroux, Switzerland/Bachem 
Distribution Services, GmbH). 
 
 
TG02 is produced by lyophilisation of a sterile aqueous solution of the drug substance 
peptides. No additional ingredients are present in the TG02 drug product. Each vial of 
TG02 contains 2.4 mg of the drug substance peptides. 
 
TG02 is supplied as a single dose in 2 mL clear glass vials. All the primary packaging 
materials used are in conformance with the European Pharmacopoeia (EP) and US 
Pharmacopoeia (USP). 
 
TG02 drug product is to be reconstituted in water for injection (WFI) before 
administration to the patient. Patient will receive TG02 at a dose of 0.80 mg/injection. 
 
An accountability log will be kept to track the use of TG02. 
 
GM-CSF (Immunomodulator)  
GM-CSF in the form of lyophilised recombinant human GM-CSF expressed in E-coli 
(Amoytop Biotech Co, Ltd, Xiamen, China) is used as immunomodulatory.  
 
GM-CSF is a sterile dry white solid powder consisting of human recombinant GM-CSF 
and the excipients mannitol, macrogol 4000, human albumin, dibasic sodium phosphate 
and monobasic potassium phosphate. Each vial of GM-CSF contains 100 µg (1.0x106 IU) 
Molgramostim. GM-CSF is supplied in a 2 mL clear glass vial.  
 
GM-CSF is to be reconstituted in water for injection (WFI) before administration to the 
patient. 
 
An accountability log will be kept to track the use of GM-CSF. 
 
Pembrolizumab (Only Part II):  
A fixed dose of 200 mg pembrolizumab will be administered as an intravenous infusion. 
The product will be provided as a 50 mg lyophilized powder in a single-use vial for 
reconstitution in sterile water for injection, or as a vial of 4 mL of concentrate containing 
100 mg. Pembrolizumab should be administered according to the latest version of the

Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC), and dosed according to available guidelines 
for the use of this drug.  
 
An accountability log will be kept to track the use of Pembrolizumab. 
 
8.2.  Dosing, Mode of Administration, Duration of Treatment 
TG02 and GM-CSF will be given as intradermal injections by trained study staff 
authorized to do such procedures. Training of study staff will be performed by Sponsor 
before any patients are treated. In addition, the administration of TG02 and GM-CSF is 
described in the Study Drug Handling Plan (SDHP). 
 
GM-CSF and TG02 are administered as 2 separate intradermal injections, 15 to 30 
minutes apart, at the same site in the upper arm. In addition, TG02 will at certain time 
points be administered intradermally (without prior administration of GM-CSF) in the 
lower area of the contra lateral arm as DTH test. 
 
The administration of GM-CSF (0.10 mL reconstituted GM-CSF) and TG02 (0.10 mL 
reconstituted TG02) has to be strictly intradermal. Utmost care has to be taken that no 
material is administered subcutaneously. When done correctly, a small bleb should appear 
following the injection. An injection that is too superficial will result in loss of volume 
from the injection site during injection or after withdrawal of the needle. The 
administration should be performed at the same site every time, if possible. 
 
TG02: provided as a lyophilised solid powder for reconstitution in sterile water for 
injection to be given via intradermal injection.  
 
TG02 given in the TG02-treatment will be administered in the upper arm at weeks 1, 2, 3, 
4, and 6. If surgery is scheduled after week 10 one more TG02-treatment will be given in 
week 10. TG02 is to be given 15-30 minutes after GM-CSF.  
 
TG02 will at certain time points (week 1, week 4, week 6, week 8 and possible week 10), 
be administered intradermally (without prior administration of GM-CSF) in the lower 
area of the contra lateral arm as a DTH test to evaluate the immunological response (see 
Table 6-1). 
 
Where a  DTH (TG02) injection is being performed the TG02 DTH dose should be 
administered 30 minutes before the TG02-treatment and patients should be observed for 
at least 30 minutes after ALL TG02 treatments. 
 
GM-CSF: provided as a lyophilised solid powder for reconstitution in sterile water for 
injection to be given via intradermal injection.  
 
GM-CSF given in the TG02-treatment will be administered in the upper arm at weeks 1, 
2, 3, 4, and 6. If surgery is scheduled after week 10 one more TG02-treatment will be 
given in week 10 (see Table 6-1). 
 
In the TG02-treatment GM-CSF is to be given 15-30 minutes before TG02.  
 
The drug handling of TG02-treatment will be described in a separate Study Drug 
Handling Plan.

8.7. Treatment Compliance 
The Investigator(s) will record the time and dose of all administrations in the medical 
source documents. Any reasons for non-compliance will also be documented, including: 
• missed visits  
• interruptions in the schedule of administration  
• non-permitted medications  
 
Management of Toxicity 
If a patient experiences GM-CSF or TG02 related toxicity on the days of the scheduled 
TG02 treatment, TG02 treatment should be delayed until toxicity resolved to CTC grade 1.  
The patient should then restart at the next planned visit.   
 
Management of TG02 or GM-CSF related reactions: 
• At any time during the vaccination schedule – if a patient exhibits signs of an allergic 
reaction (not just a local reaction) then they should be treated symptomatically and for 
all subsequent TG02-treatment administrations they should be pre-medicated with 
intravenous antihistamine treatment (e.g. chlorpheniramine or dexchlorpheniramine) 
30 minutes before any TG02-treatment administration.  
• Patients who have local reactions only – It is permissible to use topical therapies such 
as anti-histamine or steroid creams or EMLA cream for pain 
• Where a DTH injection is being performed the TG02 DTH dose should be 
administered 30 minutes before the TG02-treatment and patients should be observed 
for at least 30 minutes after ALL TG02-treatments. 
• In patients who have not had prophylaxis  
– If after the TG02 DTH dose the patient exhibits a Grade 1 or 2 allergic reaction 
then the TG02-treatment should be delayed and the patient is to be given 
intravenous antihistamine treatment as above 
– If a Grade 3 or 4 reaction occurs then no more vaccinations should be given. 
• In patients who have had prophylaxis  
– 
If after the DTH dose the patient exhibits a Grade 1 reaction then the TG02-
treatment should only be given if the investigator believes it is reasonable to do 
so based on the nature of the reaction 
– 
if a Grade ≥2 reaction occurs then no more vaccinations should be given. 
• Precautions should be in place in case of anaphylaxis 
 
Management of pembrolizumab related reactions: 
• Toxicities should be managed according to SmPC for pembrolizumab. The patient 
should be discontinued if immunosuppressive agents are used at immunosuppressive 
doses. Please see Section 8.8 Prior and Concomitant Medication for further details. 
8.8. Prior and Concomitant Medications 
No systemic anti-cancer therapy is to be used during the study treatment period before 
surgery.   
 
Other vaccinations must not be administered during the treatment period.  
Vaccination with yellow fever or live (attenuated) vaccines is prohibited until after 
surgery. 
 
Any agent with a known effect on the immune system should be excluded during the 
treatment period before surgery, unless it is being given at dose levels that are not

9. STUDY ASSESSMENTS 
 
9.1. Assessment of Efficacy 
9.1.1. Primary Efficacy Variables 
A systemic immune response is defined as having a positive in vivo DTH and/or a 
positive in vitro T-cell response at least once during the treatment period. Change intra-
tumoural T-cells in resected tumour tissue at surgery compared to pre TG02-treatment 
core biopsy will be investigated.  
 
Delayed Type Hypersensitivity (DTH) 
DTH tests are performed in order to demonstrate whether a TG02 RAS mutation specific 
immune response has been elicited. 
Administration of TG02 only (without GM-CSF or proceeded by TG02-treatment) must 
be injected intradermally in the lower area of the contralateral arm to TG02-treatment as a 
Delayed Type Hypersensitivity (DTH) test. 
The DTH test is administered at baseline (Day 1 before treatment) week 4, week 6 and 
week 10 if surgery is scheduled after week 10 and the patient has not shown positive 
DTH reaction. 
 
The DTH skin reaction assessment is to be performed 48 hours (+/- 4 hours) after each 
administration by the patient in a study specific diary. The patient will be instructed by 
the study nurse how to record the DTH response and how to enter the results into the 
diary. The DTH-test will be considered positive if the area of the skin reaction has an 
average diameter* of  ≥ 5 mm at the 48 hours (+/- 4 hours) assessment (Figure 4).

T-cell Analyses  
Immunology-processed blood samples (PBMC) will be taken at baseline (Day 1, Week 1) 
and week 8 (Day 50). If surgery is after week 10, a third sample will be taken as close as 
possible up to the date of surgery. All samples will be processed and stored under 
appropriate conditions until being analysed in batches to minimize day to day assay 
variability.  PBMCs will be analysed for the presence of TG02 specific T-cells which will 
be described in a study specific Immune Monitoring Plan. 
 
Tumour biopsy assessment  
Tumour samples for assessment of immune response will be taken pre TG02-treatment 
(baseline) in the form of a study specific biopsy as per site specific standard protocol 
(optimally 2 cores will be needed) and at time of surgery in the form of resected tumour 
tissue (post treatment sample). If for any reason the patient does not proceed to surgery, a 
biopsy will be obtained at the time of planned surgery if possible. In addition, archival 
biopsy samples from both initial staging (primary diagnosis) and re staging will be 
utilised, as needed.

The tissue samples should be fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin as soon as practical 
after collection of the specimen. Processing of tumour tissue into blocks will occur 
according to the respective sites standard histology sampling procedure. These tumour 
tissue samples will be used for pathological review and subsequent 
immunohistochemically evaluation of potential biomarkers. 
 
In addition, from some patients, fresh tumour tissue will be sent directly to the laboratory 
at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre following the respective sites standard procedures.  
These fresh tissue samples will be processed to isolate tumour infiltrating cells (TILs) and 
to generate tumour-derived organoid/spheroid cultures as part of other outcome measures.  
 
As for the primary efficacy variables, tumour infiltrating lymphocytes in resected tumour 
tissue at surgery and baseline biopsies will be analysed by immunohistochemistry. 
 
The collection, storage, shipment, parameters and analyses to be used will be described in 
the study specific Immune Monitoring Plan. 
 
9.1.2. Secondary Efficacy Variables 
Tumour biopsy assessment  
The same processing procedure as described for primary efficacy variables will be 
followed.  
 
Immunohistochemical staining will be performed to investigate; pathological responses 
and markers of apoptosis (such as activated Caspase 3, granzyme B), immune cell subsets 
(such as T effector cells, B cells, NK cells, T-regs, MDSC), and PD-L1 expression on 
epithelial cells in baseline biopsies and resected tumour tissue at surgery.  
 
The collection, storage, parameters and analyses to be used will be described in a study 
specific Immune Monitoring Plan. 
 
FDG PET/CT assessment  
FDG uptake reflects the tumour activity independent of the morphologic characteristics.  
Sequential FDG-PET/CT can provide vital information in monitoring treatment response 
in tumour.  
 
FDG PET/CT images will be performed at screening (should be within the last 4 weeks 
prior to first TG02-treatment), and as close as possible up to the date of surgery. The 
scans will be captured according to the site’s standard imaging procedure. 
Standard uptake value (SUV) will be measured at baseline and post treatment will be 
assessed. 
 
The images will be anonymized and provided with a unique study identification number, 
one for the Investigators file and one for the Sponsor file  
 
Changes in Tumour Marker CEA 
Tumour marker assessment will be done to follow the evolution of the disease under 
treatment.  The marker of choice will be CEA. This marker will be evaluated at screening, 
week 8 and if surgery is after week 10, a sample will be taken as close as possible to 
surgery.

The analysis of this marker will be performed locally at each site according to local 
procedures. 
 
9.1.3. Exploratory Efficacy Variables 
Changes in circulating tumour cells and/or circulating tumour DNA 
Change in circulating tumour cells (CTC) will be measured to follow the evolution of 
levels of CTC during the treatment period. The Investigators will arrange to have the 
plasma sample transported directly to the central laboratory for analyses according to the 
procedures detailed in a laboratory manual.  
 
Functionality of RAS mutation specific T cells in tumour tissue and peripheral blood 
Cytotoxic functionality of RAS mutation specific T cells grown from fresh tumour tissue 
or PBMC will be studied as described in the study specific Immune Monitoring Plan. 
 
9.2. Assessment of Safety 
 
9.2.1. Adverse Events 
It is important that all the staff involved in the trial is familiar with the content of this   
section of the protocol. 
 
9.2.1.1. 
Definitions 
An adverse event (AE) is the development of an undesirable medical condition or the 
deterioration of a pre-existing medical condition in a patient under clinical investigation 
who has been administered an investigational pharmaceutical product (in this case GM-
CSF/TG02 but which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.  
An undesirable medical condition can be symptoms (e.g., nausea, chest pain) signs (e.g., 
tachycardia, enlarged liver) or abnormal results of an investigation (e.g., laboratory 
findings, ECG).  An AE can include any undesirable condition occurring at any time after 
inclusion in the study, even if no trial treatment has been administered or recently 
administered.  A grading severity scale is provided for each AE term.  NCI Criteria for 
Adverse Events (CTCAE) (v4.03: June 14, 2010) includes five grades (1-5), with grade 5 
being death.  
 
Any events that are unequivocally due to disease recurrence must not be reported as 
AEs. 
 
A serious AE (SAE) is an event that is known with certainty, or suspected with good reason, 
to constitute a threat to life or to cause severe or permanent damage.  A SAE can occur 
during any phase of the trial and at any dose of the investigational product.  This is 
particularly true for an AE that: 
• results in death 
• is immediately life-threatening 
• requires patient hospitalisation or prolongation of existing hospitalization 
• results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity or 
• is a congenital anomaly/birth defect 
• is an important medical event that may have jeopardised the patient or may have 
required medical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.

Medical and scientific judgment is to be exercised in deciding on the seriousness of a case.  
Important medical events may not be immediately life-threatening or result in death or 
hospitalisation, but may jeopardise the patient or may require intervention to prevent one 
of the listed outcomes in the definitions above.  In such situations, or in doubtful cases, the 
case should be considered as serious.  Drug misuse and drug overdose and should be 
regarded as serious, even if they may not result in the above mentioned outcomes. 
Hospitalisation for administrative reason (for observation or social reasons) is allowed at 
the investigator’s discretion and will not qualify as serious unless there is an associated 
adverse event warranting hospitalisation (see Appendix I and Appendix II for additional 
safety information). 
 
The causality of AE/SAEs (i.e., their relationship to trial treatment) will be assessed by the 
individual investigators at each trial centre who must while completing the CRF answer 
yes/ no to the question ‘do you consider that there is a reasonable possibility that the 
AE/SAE may have been caused by the investigational drug? 
 
Any events that are unequivocally due to disease recurrence must not be reported as 
AEs. 
 
The specialist group handling the pharmacovigilance for the study is:  
 
ICON Clinical Research UK Ltd 
2 Globeside Business Park, Marlow Buckinghamshire United Kingdom, SL7 1HZ  
 
The ICON’s Pharmacovigilance & Safety Services department is specialised and has the 
appropriate expertise in handling and reporting SAEs. 
 
9.2.1.2. 
Adverse Event Reporting 
For the purpose of this trial, any detrimental change in a patient’s condition, subsequent to 
their entry into the trial and during the 28-day follow-up period after the final treatment, 
should be considered an AE. 
The development of a new cancer should be regarded as an AE.  New cancers are those that 
are not the primary reason for the administration of the trial treatment and have been 
identified after the patient’s inclusion into this clinical trial. 
 
Any events that are unequivocally due to disease recurrence must not be reported as 
AEs. 
 
If the same AE occurs at several investigation times in one patient, then the AE in question 
must be documented and assessed as new each time. 
All AEs are to be recorded on the CRFs provided and Serious Adverse Events also on the 
Serious Adverse Event Form.  A description of the event, including its severity, duration, 
any action taken (e.g. treatment and follow-up tests) and the outcome is to be provided, 
along with the investigator’s assessment of the relationship to the trial treatment. AEs and 
laboratory values will be graded according to the NCI Criteria for Adverse Events 
(CTCAE) (v4.03: June 14, 2010) and recorded on the appropriate CRF page. 
The reporting of laboratory/vital signs abnormalities as both laboratory findings and 
adverse events should be avoided. They should not be reported as AEs unless any criterion 
of clinical significance and/or a SAE is fulfilled, the laboratory/vital signs abnormalities 
cause study drug dose adjustment, lead to patient discontinuation of their trial treatment, or 
the investigator insists that the abnormality is reported as an AE.  If an abnormal laboratory

value/vital sign is associated with clinical signs and symptoms, the sign/symptom should 
be reported as an AE and the associated laboratory result/vital sign should be considered 
additional information that must be collected on the relevant CRF. 
All patients who have new or worsening NCI-CTC grade 3 or 4 laboratory values at the 
time of withdrawal must have further tests performed and the results recorded on the 
appropriate CRF, until the laboratory values have returned to NCI-CTC grade 1 or 2, unless 
these values are not likely to improve because of the underlying disease.  In these cases, the 
investigators must record their opinions on the CRFs and in the patients’ medical records. 
For an AE to be a suspected drug-related event there should be at least a reasonable 
possibility of a causal relationship between the trial medicinal product and the AE (see 
Appendix II for guidelines on interpretation of causality). 
 
It is important to distinguish between serious and severe AEs.  Severity is a measure of 
intensity whereas seriousness is defined by the criteria in section 9.2.  An AE of severe 
intensity need not necessarily be considered serious.  For example, nausea that persists for 
several hours may be considered severe nausea, but is not an SAE.  On the other hand, a 
stroke that results in only a limited degree of disability may be considered a mild stroke, 
but would be an SAE. 
 
Lack of efficacy 
When there is deterioration in the condition for which the medicine is being used there may 
be uncertainty as to whether this is lack of efficacy or an AE.  In such cases, unless 
Targovax or the reporting physician considers that the medicine contributed to the 
deterioration or local regulations state to the contrary, the deterioration should be 
considered to be a lack of efficacy and not an AE. 
 
Handling unresolved SAEs/AEs at completion/withdrawal 
All trial treatment-related toxicities and SAEs must be followed until resolution unless, in 
the investigator’s opinion, the condition is unlikely to resolve because of the patient’s 
underlying disease. 
 
Procedure for reporting serious adverse events 
Investigators and other site personnel must inform the study monitor of any SAE that occurs 
in the course of the study as soon as possible but definitely within 24 hours of when he or 
she becomes aware of it. 
 
The following minimal information must be faxed immediately to +44 870 710 7157 
• Patient identifier – patient number, investigator 
• Details of the event or outcome (see section 9.2) 
 
To discuss the medical aspects of the SAE investigators should call: 
 
Medical Monitor: Dr Robert Miller, or deputy, on +44 203 291 3032 
 
This number should also be called to report a life-threatening or fatal adverse event within 
2 hours of knowledge of the event if this occurs before recognised recurrence of disease.

The SAE must be documented in the patient’s medical source documents and the outcome 
described. 
 
The monitor will work with the investigator to compile all the necessary information and 
ensure that the appropriate Drug Safety Department receives a report within 24 hours for 
all fatal and life-threatening cases and by day 5 for all other SAEs. 
Follow-up information on SAEs must also be reported by the investigator within the same 
time frames. 
 
If a non-serious AE becomes serious, this and other relevant follow-up information must 
also be provided to safety group within 24 hours as described above. 
All SAEs have to be reported, whether or not considered causally related to the 
investigational product.  All SAEs will be recorded in the CRF.  The investigator is 
responsible for informing the Ethics Committee and/or the Regulatory Authority of the SAE 
as per local requirements. 
 
Additional information will be requested, if necessary, by the Trial Physician within 5 days 
of the receipt of the SAE report.  This is to ensure that the initial reporting of SAEs is made 
to the regulatory authorities within the required time-frame.  All withdrawals from trial 
treatment must be notified to the trial physician.  Withdrawals from treatment due to a new, 
previously unreported SAE must be notified to the Trial Physician, along with the SAE.  
Withdrawal from trial treatment for a previously reported SAE can be made within the 7 
days after the decision has been made to withdraw the patient and for a non-serious AE 
within 21 days of the decision to withdraw.  After withdrawal from treatment patients must 
be followed up for AEs for 28 days after the last dose of trial medication.  All SAEs recorded 
during that period must be reported to the safety group, and followed up until resolved 
unless in the Investigator’s opinion the condition is unlikely to resolve due to the patient’s 
underlying progressive disease. 
 
9.2.2. Safety Laboratory Variables 
Safety serum chemistry and haematology parameters will be analysed at hospitals local 
laboratory. 
 
Blood samples for the determination of serum chemistry and haematology will be drawn 
at pre-specified time-points, see Schedule of visits (Table 6-1) Additional haematology 
and chemistry are under the investigator’s judgement.

values. 
 
Laboratory values with CTCAE grade 3 or higher and/or considered clinically significant 
by the treating physician have to be reported as an AE during the treatment period. At the 
follow-up visit only changes in laboratory values judged to be related to the study drug will 
be reported.

recorded on the appropriate CRF page. 
 
Vital Signs 
Vital signs variables include measurements of body temperature, heart rate, systolic and 
diastolic blood pressures.  Vital signs will be assessed pre- and post-treatment as detailed 
in Schedule of visits (see Table 6-1).  Additional vital signs assessments will be done 
under investigator’s judgment.  Normal ranges for vital signs are provided below (Table 
9-3).

In addition, after any TG02-treatment the patients will be monitored for heart rate and blood 
pressure at 5, 10 and 30 minutes and then every 30 minutes thereafter for up to 2 hours post 
administration. 
 
Notable vital signs results should be interpreted in conjunction with the clinical situation of 
the patient.  Once AE notification is decided upon, investigators are required to follow the 
procedure described for AE notification and document the clinically notable abnormality 
on the AE eCRF page.  Any notable abnormal vital signs finding or related AE must be 
followed until the outcome is known. 
 
Before vital signs are recorded, the patient should be resting for at least 5 minutes.  The 
same position will be used each time vital signs are recorded for a given patient and blood 
pressure will be measured preferably from the same arm. 
 
Physical examination 
An abbreviated physical examination consisting of general appearance, lungs, 
cardiovascular system and abdomen and other physical findings will be done at each 
hospital visit where the patient meets with the treating physician. 
 
Any physical examination finding that is classified by the Investigator as a clinically 
significant change (worsening compared to previous examination) will be considered as an 
AE, documented on the patient’s eCRF, and followed until the outcome is known. 
ECOG performance status 
 
Performance status will be evaluated using the ECOG scale: 
Grade ECOG Performance Status 
0 
Fully active, able to carry on all pre-disease performance without restriction 
1 
Restricted in physically strenuous activity but ambulatory and able to carry out work of a light or 
sedentary nature, e.g., light house work, office work 
2 
Ambulatory and capable of all selfcare but unable to carry out any work activities. Up and about more 
than 50% of waking hours

relevant, findings should be recorded as an AE and should be followed up during study as 
needed per investigator’s judgement. The 12-lead ECG will be evaluated by the local 
Investigator.  A copy of the 12-lead ECG page, signed, dated and diagnosed should be 
stored in the patient’s medical record.  
 
12-lead ECG does not need to be repeated during the study unless clinically indicated.

10. DATA MANAGEMENT 
 
10.1. Case Report Forms 
Electronic CRFs (eCRF) will be used to capture study results and data. The study 
coordinator or other authorised study personnel will transcribe data from source 
documents to the eCRFs. All eCRFs will be reviewed and source-verified by the study 
monitor during periodic site visits, and the study monitor will ensure that all data in the 
eCRF are correct and completed. Once the eCRF are completed and source-verified, the 
investigator must electronically sign and date all required pages, verifying the accuracy of 
all data in the eCRF. Specific instructions for completing and submitting eCRFs will be 
provided. 
All data recorded directly in the eCRF, for which no other written or electronic record 
will be maintained in the patient’s medical record, will be considered source data such as 
the patient DTH diary. 
 
10.2. Data Management Plan and Database Design 
The data management plan will be a live documents detailing the processes used by the 
Sponsor’s representatives handling the data management. Any updates to the processes 
employed during the course of the study will be reflected in the data management plan. 
The system is completed within a fully validated clinical database data management 
system. The system is built in a development environment before being moved to the 
testing environment. All testing must be completed prior to the release of the live system. 
 
10.3. Data Entry and Validation 
All computerized data processing will be performed by Sponsor’s representative. All 
eCRFs will be entered electronically by staff into a validated database. Data entry will be 
source data verified by a sponsor representative. Comprehensive edit checks will be used 
to clean data. Patient data will be entered continuously. All changes to the data and the 
database structure will be recorded in an automatic audit trail. 
Data queries will be generated at data entry or if questions arise during the data validation 
or detected during a manual review (safety data). The queries are entered into the eCRF 
and resolved according to the electronic data capture user manual. 
AEs and SAEs will be handled in the same way as the other data reported in the eCRF. 
However, in addition the initial notification of SAEs will be entered into the safety 
database for coding, medical assessment and for reporting to authorities according to 
national regulatory requirements. Before the study database is locked, reconciliation of 
the data will be performed between the two databases. 
 
10.4. Medical Coding 
Medical coding of AEs and medical history will be performed according to the latest 
version of MedDRA and coding of concomitant medication, prior anti-cancer therapy and 
further therapy will be performed according to World Health Organization (WHO) drug 
dictionary.  
 
10.5. Database Lock 
A final database will be declared when all data has been entered, the data verified, the 
data validated and the database defined clean by the Responsible Data Manager. After 
declaration of a final database the data will be exported from the database to SAS datasets 
and both the database and the SAS datasets will locked and protected from changes. All

statistical analyses for the final analysis will be performed on the locked datasets. Data 
management will be carried out as described in the sponsor’s representative’s SOPs for 
clinical studies.

11. STATISTICAL ANALYSES   
 
11.1. Power Considerations and Determination of Sample Size 
The study will include up to 16 patients; approximately 4-6 patients in Part I and up to 10 
patients in Part II if sponsor decision to initiate such. As this is an exploratory study, no 
formal sample size calculation has been performed. However, it is estimated that a sample 
size of approximately 6 subjects in each group (monotherapy and combined treatment) is 
sufficient to explore the potential effect of TG02 to induce immune responses and to 
assess safety in the induction phase.  
 
11.2. Statistical Hypothesis 
 No statistical hypothesis is defined, only descriptive statistics will be produced. 
 
11.3. Datasets to be Analysed 
 
Efficacy analysis set 
The efficacy analysis set comprises all patients who go to the surgery after treatment 
period. This analysis set will be applied for demography, baseline and efficacy data. 
 
Per protocol analysis set  
The per protocol analysis set is a subset of efficacy, but patients with major protocol 
deviations are excluded. This analysis set will be applied for efficacy data. 
 
Safety analysis set 
The safety analysis set comprises all patients who receives any amount of TG02/GM-
CSF and/or pembrolizumab. This analysis set will be applied for demography and 
baseline and safety data. 
 
11.4. General Statistical Considerations 
Data will be presented by time of measurement.  In general, continuous variables will be 
described using standard summary statistics such as number of observations, mean value, 
standard deviation, minimum and maximum value, median, and first and third quartiles.  
Categorical variables will be summarised in frequency tables as counts and percentages.  
All individual data collected will be presented in data listings.  Patients screened but not 
included in the study will not be presented in any tables or listings.

Adverse events 
All adverse events will be classified by MedDRA, version 19 or higher.  
 
A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an AE with start date/time on 
or after the first administration of investigational medicinal product (IMP). A pre-
treatment AE is defined as an AE with start date/time prior to the first administration of 
IMP. 
 
The following summary tables will be created, reporting number of events and number of 
patients with events by MedDRA System Organ Class and Preferred Term for the 
TEAEs: 
• total TEAEs 
• total serious TEAEs 
• total IMP related serious TEAEs  
• TEAEs leading to GM-CSF/TG02 withdrawal 
• TEAEs leading to study withdrawal 
• TEAEs leading to death 
• TEAEs by severity  
• Related TEAEs by severity 
• TEAEs by relationship to each IMP (related, not related) separately 
 
Safety laboratory data 
Numerical laboratory data, separately for each parameter, will be summarized in terms of 
descriptive statistics, as described in section 11.4, by time point of measurement, for 
absolute value, absolute and relative change from baseline. Further, number of patients 
with abnormal and/or clinical significant values will be presented by time point. 
 
Vital signs 
Blood pressure, heart rate and body temperature will be summarized in terms of 
descriptive statistics, as described in section 11.4, by time point of measurement, for 
absolute value, absolute and relative change from baseline.  
 
ECG 
Number of patients with abnormal findings in ECG evaluation will be reported by time 
point of measurement. 
 
11.6.1.2. Immune Endpoints 
 
Immune response 
TG02-specific DTH immune response is defined as any positive DTH test during the 
course of the study. Number of patients with TG02-specific DTH response will be 
reported. Furthermore, the number of patients with TG02-specific DTH response by time 
point measurement will be reported. 
 
Presence of TG02 specific T-cells: 
Number of patients with TG02 specific T-cells at Day 1, Day 50 and, if applicable, at Day 
64 (pre-surgery) will be reported.

The absolute count and relative change in TILs measured from tumour tissue collected 
prior TG02 treatment and from resected tumour will be presented in terms of descriptive 
statistics, as described in section 11.4. 
 
11.6.2. Secondary Endpoints 
 
Immune suppression factors in tumour specimens 
Immune suppression factors (PD-L1, Treg, MSDC) and pathological responses (cleaved-
casp3) are measured with IHC from tumour tissue, similarly to TILs. The data 
presentation will follow the same principles. 
  
Details of any further analysis from tissue or blood will be described in the Statistical 
Analysis Plan, which will be finalized before end of Part 1 of the trial. 
 
PET Imaging and biomarkers 
Change in SUV by FDG PET-CT 
The change in SUV from pre TG02 treatment to pre surgery in primary tumour, measured 
by PET-CT will be summarized in terms of descriptive statistics, as described in section 
11.4.

12. QUALITY CONTROL AND ASSURANCE 
 
12.1. Monitoring 
The study will be monitored regularly, according to a monitoring plan that will be written 
specifically for this study. The monitoring plan will define the monitoring frequency and 
detailed procedures. In general, during monitoring visits the monitor will ensure that the 
study is being conducted according to the protocol, International Conference on 
Harmonization Good Clinical Practice (ICH GCP) guidelines and other applicable 
regulations, and will compare the eCRF entries to original source data. He or she will 
make sure the informed consent procedure has been appropriately carried out and will 
ensure that all SAEs have been reported within applicable timeframes. He or she will also 
ensure that IMP accountability has been maintained and will, after completion of the 
study, perform final accountability and arrange for the return or destruction of IMP. 
 
12.2. Audits and Inspections 
Authorised representatives of Targovax, a regulatory authority, an IEC or an IRB may visit 
the centre to perform audits or inspections, including source data verification.  The purpose 
of an audit or inspection is to systematically and independently examine all trial-related 
activities and documents to determine whether these activities were conducted, and whether 
data were recorded, analysed and accurately reported according to the protocol, Good 
Clinical Practice (GCP), guidelines of the International Conference on Harmonisation 
(ICH), and any applicable regulatory requirements. The investigator should contact 
Targovax immediately if they are contacted by a regulatory agency about an inspection at 
their centre. 
 
12.3. Record Keeping and Archiving 
The study specific essential documents must be retained until at least 15 years after the 
completion of the study. The Investigator must not destroy any study specific 
documentation before receiving written permission for this from the Sponsor. Hospital 
records will be archived according to local regulations.

13. ETHICS  
 
13.1. Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) or Institutional Review Board (IRB) 
The final trial protocol, including the final version of the Written Informed Consent Form, 
must be approved or given a favourable opinion in writing by an IEC or IRB as appropriate.  
The investigator must submit written approval to the sponsor before he or she can enrol any 
patient into the trial. 
The principal investigator(s) is responsible for informing the IEC or IRB of any amendment 
to the protocol in accordance with local requirements.  In addition, the IEC or IRB must 
approve all advertising used to recruit patients for the trial.  The protocol must be 
reapproved by the IEC or IRB annually, as local regulations require. 
Either the investigator(s) or Targovax must submit progress reports to the IEC or IRB 
according to local regulations and guidelines.  The principal investigator(s) must also 
provide the IEC or IRB with any reports of SAEs from the trial site. 
 
13.2. Guidelines and Regulations 
The   trial   will   be   conducted   in   compliance   with   the   protocol,  International   
Conference   of Harmonization Good Clinical Practice (ICH GCP), the applicable 
regulatory requirement(s) and the Declaration of Helsinki. 
 
13.3. Subject Information and Consent 
Written (which has been approved by the IRB/IEC) and oral information about the study in 
a language understandable by the patient will be given to all patients. The Investigator will 
explain the nature of the study, its purpose and associated procedures, the expected 
duration, and potential benefits, constraints and risks associated with the study. Written 
informed consent will be obtained from each patient before any procedures or assessments 
are done and after the aims, methods, anticipated benefits, potential hazards, and insurance 
arrangements in force are explained.  It will also be explained to the patients that they are 
free to refuse entry into the study and free to withdraw from the study at any time without 
prejudice to future treatment. 
The patient’s willingness to participate in the study will be documented in writing in a 
consent form, which will be signed and personally dated by the patient. The same form will 
be signed and dated by the Investigator.  The Investigator will keep the original consent 
forms and copies will be given to the patients. 
If new information becomes available that potentially affects the patient’s safety or 
willingness to continue in the study, or if a protocol amendment is issued that affects 
patient’s safety, study procedures or any aspects of the study that may influence the 
patient’s willingness to continue in the study, the patient information leaflet and informed 
consent form will be revised. After the new documents have received approval from the 
IRB/IEC and regulatory authorities, the patient will be asked to sign a new consent form to 
confirm his or her willingness to continue in the study. 
 
13.4. Subject Confidentiality 
The Investigator(s) must assure that the privacy of the patients, including their personal 
identity and all other personal medical information, will be maintained at all times.  In the 
eCRFs and other documents or image material (including materials from all bone scans, 
CT, MRI examinations) submitted to the Sponsor, patients will not be identified by their 
names, but by an identification code (e.g., allocation number).  Personal medical 
information may be scrutinised for the purpose of verifying data recorded in the CRF.

Page 63 of 74 
 
This may be done by the monitor(s), properly authorised persons on behalf of the 
Sponsor, the quality assurance unit, or regulatory authorities.  Personal medical 
information will always be treated as confidential.  
The Investigators must agree to maintain the confidentiality of the trial at all times and 
must not reveal information relating to the Investigator's Brochure, protocol, CRFs or 
associated documents to unauthorised third parties. 
 
13.5. Safety Steering Committee (SSC) 
A SSC will be appointed to oversee the safety findings as the study progresses. The SSC 
will consist of the sponsor, the principal investigator, relevant sub-investigators and one 
independent physician. The work of the SSC will be described in a Safety Steering 
Committee Charter (SSCC). In particular, the safety of TG02-treatment will be evaluated 
by the SSC. All available data will be taken into account in the evaluation.  
 
The SSC will review every patient until three patients have been recruited into the study. 
The first three patients will be enrolled in a sequential manner with a minimum lag time of 
4 weeks between dosing of the first 3 subjects to ensure an acceptable safety profile.  The 
safety data collected during the first 4 weeks for the 3 first patients will be reviewed by a 
SSC consisting of Sponsor representatives, the Principal Investigator, relevant Sub-
Investigators and one Independent Physician. If no safety concerns arise, then subsequent 
patients will be recruited when they are ready to enrol. In addition, when all safety data, 
systemic immune responses (Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity (DTHs)) and tumour material 
(analysed for intra-tumoural T cells infiltration) are available for all patients in Part I of the 
study, the SSC will evaluate the data to assess safety and preliminary immune activity and 
efficacy to make a recommendation to proceed or not to Part II of this protocol. The SSC 
recommendation will form the basis for sponsor’s final decision.  
  
The same staggered recruitment approach as for Part I will be performed in Part II as TG02-
treatment and pembrolizumab in combination is a novel treatment. 
 
The SSC will meet by teleconference on a regular basis and email correspondence as 
required in between.

14. FINANCING AND INSURANCE 
 
14.1. Financial Issues 
According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 21 CFR, part 54, the Sponsor is 
required to completely and accurately disclose or certify information to the FDA 
concerning the financial interests of a clinical Investigator(s) who is not a full-time or part-
time employee.  Therefore, the Investigator must provide the Sponsor with sufficient, 
accurate financial certification that no financial arrangements (further defined in 21CFR 
54.2) exist with the Sponsor, or fully disclose the nature of the arrangement. 
A separate financial agreement (Clinical Trial Agreement) will be signed between the 
Sponsor and the Investigators and/or the institution involved.  Before the study begins, the 
Investigator will provide the Sponsor with a proposed budget, itemised on a per patient 
basis and the payee name(s) and tax identification number(s).  Additionally, the Investigator 
should not begin the study until the Sponsor has confirmed the agreed final budget in 
writing.  The investigator must comply with all the terms, conditions and obligations of the 
trial agreement for this trial.  In the event of any inconsistency between this protocol and 
the trial agreement, the trial agreement shall prevail 
 
14.2. Insurance and Indemnity 
This study is covered under the sponsor’s liability insurance policy. A certificate of 
insurance can be provided upon request.

15. STUDY REPORT AND PUBLICATIONS 
 
All information concerning TG02 and Targovax research and product development 
including patent applications and manufacturing processes not previously published 
are considered confidential and shall remain the sole property of Targovax. 
 
Targovax is responsible for preparing a Clinical Study Report, in cooperation with the 
co-ordinating Investigator.  The report will be added to the Targovax data file and may be 
used for regulatory purposes and/or in company publications.  The Clinical Study Report 
will be made after sufficient events have been observed according to the statistical 
hypothesis. 
 
If the trial is terminated prematurely for any reason an abbreviated report will be prepared. 
By signing the protocol, the Investigators agree that the results of this study may be used 
for submission to national and/or international registration and supervising authorities.  The 
authorities will be notified of the Investigators name, address, qualifications and extent of 
involvement. 
 
The publication of study results will be agreed between the sponsor and the 
investigator(s).  The sponsor is interested in publishing the results of  the  study  but  
to  prevent  publication  of  any confidential information, the sponsor retains right to 
review all publications and presentations before they are made public.

Appendix I: Further guidance on the definition of a Serious Adverse Event (SAE) 
 
Life threatening 
‘Life-threatening’ means that the patient was at immediate risk of death from the adverse 
event as it occurred or it is suspected that use or continued use of the product would result 
in the patient’s death.  ‘Life-threatening’ does not mean that had an adverse event occurred 
in a more severe form it might have caused death (i.e. hepatitis that resolved without hepatic 
failure). 
 
Hospitalisation 
Out-patient treatment in an emergency room is not in itself a serious adverse event, although 
the reasons for it may be (e.g. bronchospasm, laryngeal oedema).  Hospital admissions 
and/or surgical operations planned before or during a study are not considered adverse 
events if the illness or disease existed before the patient was enrolled in the study, provided 
that it did not deteriorate in an unexpected way during the study. 
 
Important medical event or medical intervention 
Medical and scientific judgement should be exercised in deciding whether a case is serious 
in a situation where important medical events may not be immediately life-threatening or 
result in death, hospitalisation, disability or incapacity, but may jeopardise the patient or 
may require medical intervention to prevent one or more outcomes listed in the definition 
of serious.  These should usually be considered as serious.  Examples of such events are: 
 
• 
Angio-oedema not severe enough to require intubation but requiring iv. 
hydrocortisone treatment 
• 
Hepatotoxicity caused by paracetamol (acetaminophen) overdose requiring 
treatment with N-acetylcysteine 
• 
Intensive treatment in an emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm 
• 
Blood dyscrasias (e.g. neutropenia or anaemia requiring blood transfusion, etc) 
or convulsions that do not result in hospitalisation 
• 
Development of drug dependency or drug abuse

Page 69 of 74 
 
Appendix II: Further guidance on the assessment of causality 
 
The following factors should be considered when deciding if there is a “reasonable 
possibility” that an adverse event (AE) may have been caused by the investigational 
product. 
 
• 
Time course of events and exposure to suspect drug. Has the patient actually 
received the suspect drug? Did the AE occur in a reasonable temporal relationship 
to the administration of suspect drug? 
• 
Consistency with known drug profile. Was the AE consistent with the previous 
knowledge of the suspect drug (pharmacology and toxicology) or drugs of the 
same pharmacological class? OR could the AE be anticipated from its 
pharmacological properties? 
• 
Dechallenge experience. Did the AE resolve or improve on stopping or reducing 
the dose of the suspect drug? 
• 
No alternative cause. The AE cannot be reasonably explained by another 
aetiology such as the underlying disease, other drugs, other host or environmental 
factors. 
• 
Rechallenge experience. Did the AE reoccur if the suspected drug was 
reintroduced after having been stopped? Targovax would not normally 
recommend or support a rechallenge. 
• 
Laboratory tests. Has a specific laboratory investigation confirmed the 
relationship? 
 
A “reasonable possibility” could be considered to exist for an AE where one or 
more of these factors exist. 
 
In contrast, there would not be a “reasonable possibility” of causality if none of 
the above criteria apply or where there is evidence of exposure and a reasonable 
time course but any dechallenge (if performed) is negative or ambiguous or there 
is another more likely cause of the AE. 
 
In difficult cases, other factors could be considered such as: 
• 
Is this a recognised feature of overdose of the drug? 
• 
Is there a known mechanism? 
 
Ambiguous cases should be considered as being a “reasonable possibility” of a causal 
relationship unless further evidence becomes available to refute this. 
 
Any events that are unequivocally because of progression of disease must not be reported 
as an adverse event.

Appendix III: Declaration of Helsinki 
 
WORLD MEDICAL ASSOCIATION DECLARATION OF HELSINKI 
Ethical Principles for Medical Research Involving Human Subjects 
Adopted by the 18th WMA General Assembly, Helsinki, Finland, June 1964, and amended by the: 
29th WMA General Assembly, Tokyo, Japan, October 1975 
35th WMA General Assembly, Venice, Italy, October 1983 
41st WMA General Assembly, Hong Kong, September 1989 
48th WMA General Assembly, Somerset West, Republic of South Africa, October 1996 
52nd WMA General Assembly, Edinburgh, Scotland, October 2000  
53rd WMA General Assembly, Washington 2002 (Note of Clarification on paragraph 29 added) 
55th WMA General Assembly, Tokyo 2004 (Note of Clarification on Paragraph 30 added) 
59th WMA General Assembly, Seoul, October 2008 
A. INTRODUCTION  
1. The World Medical Association (WMA) has developed the Declaration of Helsinki as 
a statement of ethical principles for medical research involving human subjects, 
including 
research 
on 
identifiable 
human 
material 
and 
data.  
The Declaration is intended to be read as a whole and each of its constituent paragraphs 
should not be applied without consideration of all other relevant paragraphs.  
2. Although the Declaration is addressed primarily to physicians, the WMA encourages 
other participants in medical research involving human subjects to adopt these 
principles. 
3. It is the duty of the physician to promote and safeguard the health of patients, including 
those who are involved in medical research. The physician's knowledge and 
conscience are dedicated to the fulfilment of this duty. 
4. The Declaration of Geneva of the WMA binds the physician with the words, "The 
health of my patient will be my first consideration," and the International Code of 
Medical Ethics declares that, "A physician shall act in the patient's best interest when 
providing medical care." 
5. Medical progress is based on research that ultimately must include studies involving 
human subjects. Populations that are underrepresented in medical research should be 
provided appropriate access to participation in research. 
6. In medical research involving human subjects, the well-being of the individual 
research subject must take precedence over all other interests. 
7. The primary purpose of medical research involving human subjects is to understand 
the causes, development and effects of diseases and improve preventive, diagnostic 
and therapeutic interventions (methods, procedures and treatments). Even the best 
current interventions must be evaluated continually through research for their safety, 
effectiveness, efficiency, accessibility and quality. 
8. In medical practice and in medical research, most interventions involve risks and 
burdens. 
9. Medical research is subject to ethical standards that promote respect for all human 
subjects and protect their health and rights. Some research populations are particularly 
vulnerable and need special protection. These include those who cannot give or refuse

consent for themselves and those who may be vulnerable to coercion or undue 
influence. 
10. Physicians should consider the ethical, legal and regulatory norms and standards for 
research involving human subjects in their own countries as well as applicable 
international norms and standards. No national or international ethical, legal or 
regulatory requirement should reduce or eliminate any of the protections for research 
subjects set forth in this Declaration.  
B. BASIC PRINCIPLES FOR ALL MEDICAL RESEARCH  
1. It is the duty of physicians who participate in medical research to protect the life, 
health, dignity, integrity, right to self-determination, privacy, and confidentiality of 
personal information of research subjects. 
2. Medical research involving human subjects must conform to generally accepted 
scientific principles, be based on a thorough knowledge of the scientific literature, 
other relevant sources of information, and adequate laboratory and, as appropriate, 
animal experimentation. The welfare of animals used for research must be respected.  
3. Appropriate caution must be exercised in the conduct of medical research that may 
harm the environment. 
4. The design and performance of each research study involving human subjects must be 
clearly described in a research protocol. The protocol should contain a statement of the 
ethical considerations involved and should indicate how the principles in this 
Declaration have been addressed. The protocol should include information regarding 
funding, sponsors, institutional affiliations, other potential conflicts of interest, 
incentives for subjects and provisions for treating and/or compensating subjects who 
are harmed as a consequence of participation in the research study. The protocol should 
describe arrangements for post-study access by study subjects to interventions 
identified as beneficial in the study or access to other appropriate care or benefits. 
5. The research protocol must be submitted for consideration, comment, guidance and 
approval to a research ethics committee before the study begins. This committee must 
be independent of the researcher, the sponsor and any other undue influence. It must 
take into consideration the laws and regulations of the country or countries in which 
the research is to be performed as well as applicable international norms and standards 
but these must not be allowed to reduce or eliminate any of the protections for research 
subjects set forth in this Declaration. The committee must have the right to monitor 
ongoing studies. The researcher must provide monitoring information to the 
committee, especially information about any serious adverse events. No change to the 
protocol may be made without consideration and approval by the committee. 
6. Medical research involving human subjects must be conducted only by individuals 
with the appropriate scientific training and qualifications. Research on patients or 
healthy volunteers requires the supervision of a competent and appropriately qualified 
physician or other health care professional. The responsibility for the protection of 
research subjects must always rest with the physician or other health care professional 
and never the research subjects, even though they have given consent.

7. Medical research involving a disadvantaged or vulnerable population or community is 
only justified if the research is responsive to the health needs and priorities of this 
population or community and if there is a reasonable likelihood that this population or 
community stands to benefit from the results of the research. 
8. Every medical research study involving human subjects must be preceded by careful 
assessment of predictable risks and burdens to the individuals and communities 
involved in the research in comparison with foreseeable benefits to them and to other 
individuals or communities affected by the condition under investigation. 
9. Every clinical trial must be registered in a publicly accessible database before 
recruitment of the first subject. 
10. Physicians may not participate in a research study involving human subjects unless 
they are confident that the risks involved have been adequately assessed and can be 
satisfactorily managed. Physicians must immediately stop a study when the risks are 
found to outweigh the potential benefits or when there is conclusive proof of positive 
and beneficial results. 
11. Medical research involving human subjects may only be conducted if the importance 
of the objective outweighs the inherent risks and burdens to the research subjects. 
12. Participation by competent individuals as subjects in medical research must be 
voluntary. Although it may be appropriate to consult family members or community 
leaders, no competent individual may be enrolled in a research study unless he or she 
freely agrees. 
13. Every precaution must be taken to protect the privacy of research subjects and the 
confidentiality of their personal information and to minimize the impact of the study 
on their physical, mental and social integrity. 
14. In medical research involving competent human subjects, each potential subject must 
be adequately informed of the aims, methods, sources of funding, any possible 
conflicts of interest, institutional affiliations of the researcher, the anticipated benefits 
and potential risks of the study and the discomfort it may entail, and any other relevant 
aspects of the study. The potential subject must be informed of the right to refuse to 
participate in the study or to withdraw consent to participate at any time without 
reprisal. Special attention should be given to the specific information needs of 
individual potential subjects as well as to the methods used to deliver the information. 
After ensuring that the potential subject has understood the information, the physician 
or another appropriately qualified individual must then seek the potential subject's 
freely-given informed consent, preferably in writing. If the consent cannot be 
expressed in writing, the non-written consent must be formally documented and 
witnessed. 
15. For medical research using identifiable human material or data, physicians must 
normally seek consent for the collection, analysis, storage and/or reuse. There may be 
situations where consent would be impossible or impractical to obtain for such 
research or would pose a threat to the validity of the research. In such situations the 
research may be done only after consideration and approval of a research ethics 
committee.

16. When seeking informed consent for participation in a research study the physician 
should be particularly cautious if the potential subject is in a dependent relationship 
with the physician or may consent under duress. In such situations the informed 
consent should be sought by an appropriately qualified individual who is completely 
independent of this relationship. 
17. For a potential research subject who is incompetent, the physician must seek informed 
consent from the legally authorized representative. These individuals must not be 
included in a research study that has no likelihood of benefit for them unless it is 
intended to promote the health of the population represented by the potential subject, 
the research cannot instead be performed with competent persons, and the research 
entails only minimal risk and minimal burden. 
18. When a potential research subject who is deemed incompetent is able to give assent to 
decisions about participation in research, the physician must seek that assent in 
addition to the consent of the legally authorized representative. The potential subject's 
dissent should be respected. 
19. Research involving subjects who are physically or mentally incapable of giving 
consent, for example, unconscious patients, may be done only if the physical or mental 
condition that prevents giving informed consent is a necessary characteristic of the 
research population. In such circumstances the physician should seek informed 
consent from the legally authorized representative. If no such representative is 
available and if the research cannot be delayed, the study may proceed without 
informed consent provided that the specific reasons for involving subjects with a 
condition that renders them unable to give informed consent have been stated in the 
research protocol and the study has been approved by a research ethics committee. 
Consent to remain in the research should be obtained as soon as possible from the 
subject or a legally authorized representative. 
20. Authors, editors and publishers all have ethical obligations with regard to the 
publication of the results of research. Authors have a duty to make publicly available 
the results of their research on human subjects and are accountable for the 
completeness and accuracy of their reports. They should adhere to accepted guidelines 
for ethical reporting. Negative and inconclusive as well as positive results should be 
published or otherwise made publicly available. Sources of funding, institutional 
affiliations and conflicts of interest should be declared in the publication. Reports of 
research not in accordance with the principles of this Declaration should not be 
accepted for publication.  
C. ADDITIONAL PRINCIPLES FOR MEDICAL RESEARCH COMBINED WITH 
MEDICAL CARE  
1. The physician may combine medical research with medical care only to the extent that 
the research is justified by its potential preventive, diagnostic or therapeutic value and 
if the physician has good reason to believe that participation in the research study will 
not adversely affect the health of the patients who serve as research subjects. 
2. The benefits, risks, burdens and effectiveness of a new intervention must be tested 
against those of the best current proven intervention, except in the following 
circumstances:

 
The use of placebo, or no treatment, is acceptable in studies where no current 
proven intervention exists; or 
 
Where for compelling and scientifically sound methodological reasons the use of 
placebo is necessary to determine the efficacy or safety of an intervention and the 
patients who receive placebo or no treatment will not be subject to any risk of 
serious or irreversible harm. Extreme care must be taken to avoid abuse of this 
option. 
3. At the conclusion of the study, patients entered into the study are entitled to be 
informed about the outcome of the study and to share any benefits that result from it, 
for example, access to interventions identified as beneficial in the study or to other 
appropriate care or benefits. 
4. The physician must fully inform the patient which aspects of the care are related to the 
research. The refusal of a patient to participate in a study or the patient's decision to 
withdraw from the study must never interfere with the patient-physician relationship. 
5. In the treatment of a patient, where proven interventions do not exist or have been 
ineffective, the physician, after seeking expert advice, with informed consent from the 
patient or a legally authorized representative, may use an unproven intervention if in 
the physician's judgement it offers hope of saving life, re-establishing health or 
alleviating suffering. Where possible, this intervention should be made the object of 
research, designed to evaluate its safety and efficacy. In all cases, new information 
should be recorded and, where appropriate, made publicly available.
