mRNA-2752 with or without a PD1 Inhibitor in Treating Patients with High Grade Ductal Breast Carcinoma In Situ
This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA)-2752 and to see how well it works with or without a PD1 inhibitor in treating patients with high grade ductal breast carcinoma in situ. A PD1 inhibitor is an antibody (a protein produced by the body’s immune system) that is designed to bind to and block the activity of PD1, a molecule in the body that may be responsible for inhibiting the body’s immune response against cancer cells. Immunotherapy with mRNA-2752, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving mRNA-2752 with or without a PD1 inhibitor may help treat patients with high grade ductal breast carcinoma in situ.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the efficacy of intralesional mRNA-2752 monotherapy in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) of the breast as measured by the change in the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) tumor size/volume/enhancement. Absence of tumor on biopsy, and increase in immune infiltrates as measured by immune multiplex assays. (mRNA-2752 monotherapy dose-escalation phase)
II.To characterize the safety of mRNA-2752 and feasibility of intralesional administration of mRNA-2752 in patients with high-risk DCIS. (mRNA-2752 monotherapy dose-escalation phase)
III. To determine the MRI response rate and complete pathologic response rate with either mRNA-2752 monotherapy or combined therapy in high risk DCIS. (mRNA-2752 combination therapy dose-expansion phase)
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To characterize changes in the immune landscape of DCIS (using multiplex immunofluorescence, spatial transcriptomics assays/10x Xenium panels) following intralesional administration of mRNA-2752 with or without an immune checkpoint.
II. To characterize changes in peripheral blood-based immune biomarkers pre- vs. post-intralesional administration of mRNA-2752 with or without an immune checkpoint inhibitor. Assays will include CyTOF assays for immune cell populations, MesoScaleDiscovery and/or Olink assays for circulating cytokines/chemokines, T cell receptor repertoire assays, and bulk RNA sequencing.
III. To evaluate the above biomarkers for their associations with treatment response.
IV. To evaluate the change in oral and gut microbiome after intra-tumoral immunotherapy injections.
