Lynch Syndrome Vaccine Study

About the Study

Lynch Syndrome (LS) increases the risk of colon cancer and other cancers, including cancer of the uterus, ovaries, small bowel, stomach, pancreas, urinary tract, skin, and brain.

This study is being done to assess the safety and effectiveness of a series of vaccines (Tri-Ad5), together with another drug (N-803) that magnifies the body’s response to vaccines, to see if there is an effect on the risk of developing colon and other cancers in LS patients.

What the Study Entails

If you consent and are eligible to join this trial, you will attend a total of 8 study appointments. During these visits you will receive a series of injections (3-4 injections four times over a one-year period) and undergo yearly colonoscopies as part of routine care. You can also expect physical exams, blood draws, review of your medical history, and completion of questionnaires and a vaccine report card to report any injection side effects.
