Safety Study of Peptide Cancer Vaccine To Treat HLA-A*24-positive Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Interventions
Biological: HLA-A*2402restricted URLC10, CDCA1, and KIF20A peptides
Registration Number
NCT01069575
Lead Sponsor
Shiga University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immune response and clinical efficacies of HLA-A\*2402 restricted epitope peptides URLC10, CDCA1, and KIF20A emulsified with Montanide ISA 51 for advanced non-small cell lung cancers.

Detailed Description

The investigators previously identified three novel HLA-A\*2402-restricted epitope peptides, which were derived from three cancer-testis antigens, URLC10, CDCA1, and KIF20A, as targets for cancer vaccination against lung cancer. In this phase I trial, the investigators examine using a combination of these three peptides the safety, immunogenicity, and antitumor effect of vaccine treatment for HLA-A\*2402-positive advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients who failed to standard therapy.
