Exclusion criteria

Subjects meeting any of the following criteria will be excluded from the study:

  • Serum CA 19-9 level >180 U/mL within 21 days prior to initiating standard postoperative adjuvant therapy;
  • History of bone marrow transplantation, allogeneic organ transplantation, or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation;
  • Concurrent immunosuppressive therapy, defined as regular use of immunosuppressive agents within 4 weeks prior to screening or during the study, including but not limited to:
  • Severe asthma requiring systemic corticosteroids (≥10 mg/day prednisone equivalent);
  • Active autoimmune disease or immunodeficiency (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus);
  • History of primary immunodeficiency;
  • Exceptions: Type 1 diabetes, autoimmune hypothyroidism managed with hormone replacement, vitiligo, or psoriasis not requiring systemic therapy;
  • Active bacterial/fungal infections requiring systemic treatment, or active/latent tuberculosis (confirmed by interferon-gamma release assay or tuberculin skin test);

  • History of drug abuse, psychiatric disorders, or psychosocial factors impairing informed consent or protocol compliance;
  • History of severe hypersensitivity to vaccines, biologics, or any component of the study drug;
  • Pregnancy or lactation;
  • Other conditions judged by the investigator to preclude safe participation.

Treatment and study plan

individualized anti-tumor new antigen iNeo-Vac-R01 injection

Biological

The individualized anti-tumor new antigen iNeo-Vac-R01 injection was commissioned by Hangzhou Neoantigen Therapeutics Co., Ltd., and all patients were admitted into the therapeutic intervention group. According to the results of previous non-clinical studies, the individualized mRNA injection of 100 μ g was a tolerable dose.

Gemcitabine + Capecitabine

Drug

Gemcitabine: 1000 mg/m², administered intravenously over 30 minutes on Day 1 and Day 8; Capecitabine: 1650-2000 mg/(m²·day), divided into two daily oral doses from Day 1 to Day 14.

Treatment cycles repeat every 3 weeks for 8 cycles, with the actual number of cycles determined by the investigator based on comprehensive evaluation of the patient's physical status, disease progression, and adverse reactions.

Sintilimab Injection

Drug

Sintilimab Injection, 200mg, intravenous infusion, every 3 weeks

Primary outcomes

  1. Occurence and frequence of AE and SAE

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    Occurence and frequence of Adverse Event (AE) and Serious Adverse Event (SAE) (NCI CTCAE 5.0)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS)

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    Defined as the time from the date of surgery to the first occurrence of disease recurrence or death from any cause (whichever occurs first). Tumor recurrence is defined as the development of one or more new lesions, which may be local (at the primary site), regional (in adjacent lymph nodes or tissues), or distant (metastatic lesions remote from the original resection site).

  2. Recurrence-Free Survival Rate (RFS%)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

    The proportion of patients free from disease recurrence or death (whichever occurs first) at 12 months, 24 months, and 36 months following surgery.

  3. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time frame: Up to 4 years

    Defined as the time from the date of surgery to death from any cause.

  4. Overall Survival Rate (OS%)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

    The proportion of patients surviving at 12 months, 24 months, and 36 months following surgery.

  5. Efficacy Evaluation Metrics for Patients with Recurrence: Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

    The proportion of patients achieving a partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) in tumor lesions, as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria.

  6. Efficacy Evaluation Metrics for Patients with Recurrence: Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

    The proportion of patients achieving PR, CR, or stable disease (SD) in tumor lesions.

  7. Efficacy Evaluation Metrics for Patients with Recurrence: Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

    Defined as the time from the date of initiating first-line chemotherapy to the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause (whichever occurs first).

  8. Efficacy Evaluation Metrics for Patients with Recurrence: Progression-Free Survival Rate (PFS%)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

    The proportion of patients free from disease progression or death (whichever occurs first) at 12, 24, and 36 months.

  9. Efficacy Evaluation Metrics for Patients with Recurrence: Overall Survival (OS)

    Time frame: Up to 4 years

    Defined as the time from the date of initiating first-line chemotherapy to death from any cause.

  10. Efficacy Evaluation Metrics for Patients with Recurrence: Overall Survival Rate (OS%)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

    The proportion of patients surviving at 12, 24, and 36 months.
