简要总结

To determine if a vaccine made from patient's own tumor tissue can stimulate an immune response against the patient's tumor cells. To determine the safety of the vaccine

详细描述

Study Objectives: To study the toxicity, safety and delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) responses of DNP-modified autologous tumor cell vaccine (L-Vax) in patients with resectable NSCLC:

  • To determine the tolerability and toxicity of L-Vax
  • To determine whether L-Vax induces a DTH response to autologous, DNP-modified NSCLC cells of similar magnitude to responses observed with melanoma
  • Determine whether L-Vax induces a DTH response to autologous unmodified NSCLC cells
  • To determine whether the DTH responses to autologous, unmodified NSCLC cells that have been fixed with ethanol correlate with DTH responses to autologous, unmodified NSCLC cells that are not fixed

Study Population: Patients with resectable NSCLC whose therapeutic tumor surgery provides a mass, which yields adequate tumor, cells for vaccine preparation and DTH testing

Study Design: A Phase I/IIa double-blind, three-dose, single center study

Investigational Product: L-Vax: DNP-modified autologous NSCLC cell vaccine

入选标准

  • Histologically documented stage IA, IB, IIA, IIB or IIIA NSCLC that is completely resectable and does not require post-operative radiation therapy or peri-operative chemotherapy
  • Excision of the tumor and harvesting of tumor mass yielding adequate cells for vaccine manufacture and DTH testing
  • Successful preparation and lot release of vaccines and of DTH testing material containing DNP-modified tumor cells
  • Minimum of 3 and maximum of 8 weeks since the surgery
  • Expected survival of at least 6 months
  • Karnofsky performance status ³ 80
  • Signed informed consent

排除标准

  • Alkaline phosphatase > 2.5 x ULN
  • Total bilirubin > 2.0 mg/dL
  • Creatinine > 2.0 mg/dL
  • Hemoglobin < 10.0 g/dL
  • WBC < 3,000 /mm3
  • Platelet count < 100,000/mm3

  • Radiation therapy to lung - pre-operative or post-operative
  • Any major field radiotherapy within 6 months prior to participation in the study
  • Immunotherapy (interferons, tumor necrosis factor, other cytokines [e.g., interleukins], biological response modifiers, or monoclonal antibodies) within 4 weeks prior to participation in the study
  • Prior splenectomy
  • Concurrent use of systemic steroids, except for the period of administration of the adjuvant chemotherapy, as per Section 8.6 (months 4-7)(Note: Topical steroid therapies [applied to the skin] are allowed, provided these are not applied to limbs injected with vaccine or skin test materials. Inhaled aerosol steroids are allowed.)
  • Concurrent use of immunosuppressive drugs, except for the period of administration of the adjuvant chemotherapy (months 4-7)
  • Concurrent use of antitubercular drugs (isoniazid, rifampin, streptomycin)
  • Other malignancy within 5 years except curatively treated non-melanomatous skin cancer and curatively treated carcinoma in situ of the uterine cervix, or early stage (stage A or B1) prostate cancer
  • Concurrent autoimmune diseases, e.g., systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis or ankylosing spondylitis
  • Concurrent medical condition that would preclude compliance or immunologic response to study treatment
  • Concurrent serious infection or other serious medical condition
  • Receipt of any investigational medication within 4 weeks prior to participation in the study
  • Pregnancy or lactation (serum b-human chorionic gonadotropin [b-HCG] test must be negative in fertile women at screening visit)
  • Active tuberculosis or a past history of tuberculosis
  • PPD positive (³ 5 mm to 5TU)
  • Known gentamicin sensitivity
  • Anergic, defined by the inability to make a DTH to at least one of the following: candida, mumps, tetanus or trichophyton (based, except for the period of administration of the adjuvant chemotherapy (months 4-7) upon availability)
  • Vaccine lot release failure
