详细描述
Immunotherapy for Brain Tumors:
Although it is usually ineffective alone, it has long been recognized that the immune system of tumor bearing hosts (human and animal models) does, indeed, mount an endogenous immune-mediated response to tumor. Unfortunately, this immune response alone is not sufficient in combating tumor. The balance of immune response and immune regulation often mitigates this anti-tumor response. Several mechanisms within tumor-bearing hosts compromise the efficacy of this anti-tumor immune response, including low levels of expression of co-stimulatory molecules such as the B7 family of immune-regulatory ligands, the tumor's local production of immunosuppressive factors and the tumor's ability to over-express pro-survival factors thus escaping destruction by the host immune system. However, many have hypothesized that if this immune response can be better harnessed and/or magnified, there is potential for heightened tumor responses.
A number of specific observations support the use of immunotherapy to treat brain tumors. Data published supports a possible correlation between HIV mediated immunosuppression and the development of intracranial glial tumors. Immunosuppression in transplant recipients has also been implicated in the development of intracranial glioma. Further supporting this hypothesis are documented rare cases of long-term remission of malignant brain tumors following significant post-operative infection. These observations have fueled the idea that a heightened immune system may confer some protection against intracranial tumors. With this in mind, one hypothesis is that successful active immunotherapy for patients with brain tumors will require development of a specific peptide or polyvalent vaccines in an effort to further stimulate the host's immune system against specific tumor-associated antigens.
It has been well established that mice can be immunized against syngeneic tumors. Heat shock protein-peptide complexes isolated from a specific tumor can been utilized to elicit both prophylactic and therapeutic immunity against the specific cancer from which the preparations have been isolated. Overexpression of heat shock protein-chaperone complexes (HSPPC) in brain tumor cells suggests that HSPPC are a meaningful target antigen for a brain tumor vaccine. Moreover, in addition to generating tumor-specific immunity, vaccination with heat shock protein peptide complexes in animal models generates therapeutic responses. Since an immune response has not been widely evaluated for pediatric brain tumors, this study will test the safety and feasibility of producing and administering a vaccine capable of generating an autologous, anti-tumor immune response.

研究组 & 干预措施
Newly Diagnosed High Grade Glioma (HGG)
Heat Shock Protein Peptide Complex-96 (HSPPC-96) therapy will be given between 0-28 days after the completion of radiation therapy (XRT) AND no more than 60 days from completion of XRT. Vaccine will be given once weekly for 4 weeks. The 4 weeks (28 days) of vaccine administration will be followed by an observation visit. In patients with sufficient vaccine (on both Arms A and B), a maintenance therapy will be instituted. It will be administered at the same dose the patient was enrolled at and given every 2 weeks until vaccine is exhausted or there is evidence of tumor progression. The first dose of maintenance vaccine should be administered 7 days after completion of the observation visit.
