Study of Imprime PGG and Pembrolizumab in Advanced Melanoma and Triple Negative Breast Cancer

Imprime PGG is a soluble, β-1,3/1,6 glucan isolated from the cell wall of a proprietary Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strain. Imprime PGG acts as a Pathogen-Associated Molecular Pattern (PAMP). Imprime will be administered at a dose of 4 mg/kg IV over a 2-hour infusion time on Days 1, 8 and 15 of each 3-week treatment cycle.

Pembrolizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody against the programmed death receptor-1 protein. Pembrolizumab will be given at a fixed dose of 200 mg IV over 30 minutes on Day 1 of each 3-week treatment cycle after the Imprime infusion.
