SLP mKRASvax with Poly-ICLC adjuvant will be administered on days 1, 8, 15 and 22 in Cycle 1 (Prime Phase) and on day 1 in cycle 4 and every other cycle and beyond (Boost Phase). Up to 5 subcutaneous injections will be administered in the upper thighs, arms and/or back. Drug: 0.3 mg per peptide vaccine + 0.5mg Poly-ICLC
240 mg will be administered as a 30 minute IV. Infusion (-10/+25 minutes) on day 1 and day 15 during Cycle 1 in Prime Phase and on day 1 and day 15 of every cycle in the Boost Phase beginning on Cycle 2 (for a maximum of 2 years from initial vaccination). Drug: 240 mg IV
75 mg will be administered as a 30 minute IV. Infusion (-10/+25 minutes) on Cycle 1 day 1 in Prime Phase and on Cycle 2 day 15 in the Boost Phase. Drug: 75 mg IV

RECRUITINGCohort A: Progression-free Survival (PFS) for maintenance mPDAC cohort
PFS is defined as the number of mPDAC patients free of progression at 4 months since the initiation of therapy - disease progression (progressive disease \[PD\] or relapse from complete response \[CR\] as assessed using RECIST 1.1 criteria) or death due to any cause. Per RECIST 1.1 criteria, CR = disappearance of all target lesions, Partial Response (PR) is =\>30percent decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, Progressive Disease (PD) is \>20percent increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, Stable Disease (SD) is \<30percent decrease or \<20percent increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Time frame: 4 months
Cohort B: Objective Response Rate (ORR) for maintenance mCRC cohort
ORR is defined as the number of mCRC patients who are administered at least 1 dose of SLP mKRASvax achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at any time during the study. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =\>30percent decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is \>20percent increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is \<30percent decrease or \<20percent increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Time frame: 3 years
Cohort C: Objective Response Rate (ORR) for KRAS-inhibitor exposed mPDAC cohort
ORR is defined as the number of mCRC patients who are administered at least 1 dose of SLP mKRASvax achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at any time during the study. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =\>30percent decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is \>20percent increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is \<30percent decrease or \<20percent increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Time frame: 3 years

Number of participants experiencing study drug-related adverse events Grade 3 or higher as defined by CTCAE v5.0
Time frame: 3 years
Objective Response Rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1
ORR is defined as the number of mPDAC patients who are administered at least 1 dose of SLP mKRASvax and balstilimab +/- botensilimab achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at any time during the study. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =\>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is \>20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is \<30% decrease or \<20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions. Estimation based on the Kaplan-Meier curve.
Time frame: 3 years
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
DCR is defined as the number of patients who are administered ≥ 1 dose of SLP mKRASvax achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at 2 months post first vaccination. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =\>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is \>20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is \<30% decrease or \<20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Time frame: 2 months
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
DCR is defined as the number of patients who are administered ≥ 1 dose of SLP mKRASvax achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at 6 months post first vaccination. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =\>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is \>20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is \<30% decrease or \<20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
Time frame: 6 months
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
DCR is defined as the number of patients who are administered ≥ 1 dose of SLP mKRASvax achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD) based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) at 12 months post first vaccination. CR = disappearance of all target lesions, PR is =\>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) is \>20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease (SD) is \<30% decrease or \<20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.

Progression-free Survival (PFS) per RECIST 1.1
PFS is defined as the time from cycle 1, day 1 of KRAS vaccine and balstilimab and botensilimab until first documented local disease progression (progressive disease \[PD\] or relapse from complete response \[CR\] as assessed using RECIST 1.1 criteria) or death due to any cause. Per RECIST 1.1 criteria, CR = disappearance of all target lesions, Partial Response (PR) is =\>30% decrease in sum of diameters of target lesions, Progressive Disease (PD) is \>20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions, Stable Disease (SD) is \<30% decrease or \<20% increase in sum of diameters of target lesions.
