简要总结
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from a person's white blood cells and allogeneic tumor cells may make the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well vaccine therapy works in treating patients with stage I, stage II, or stage III non-small cell lung cancer.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the immunologic effects of adjuvant vaccine therapy comprising autologous dendritic cells loaded with allogeneic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells in patients with unresectable stage IIIA or IIIB, or resected stage I-IIIB NSCLC.
- Determine the potential clinical efficacy of this vaccine in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is an open-label study. Patients are stratified according to type of prior primary therapy (surgical vs nonsurgical).
Patients undergo leukapheresis over 3-4 hours to harvest mononuclear cells for the production of dendritic cells (DC). DC are then pulsed with allogeneic non-small cell lung cancer cells to produce an autologous dendritic cell vaccine. Patients receive vaccine intradermally once a month for 2 months in the absence of disease recurrence or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients are followed monthly for 4 months, every 6 months for 2 years, and then periodically thereafter.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of Participants Showing Immunologic Response to Vaccine Within Six Months of Immunization
时间窗: six months post vaccine
Antigen specific reaction is measured serially in blood of each participant prior to and through six months post-vaccine. Increase in levels of specific T cell activity from pre vaccine to post vaccine serve as primary measures of an individual's response to vaccine. The number (relative percent) of participants achieving immunologic response to vaccine within 6 month of immunization was the dominant metric of vaccine activity within the study population.
次要结局
- Number of Participants Alive Five Years Post Vaccine(five years post vaccine)
