Study Overview

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Vaccines made from a gene-modified virus may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining vaccine therapy with chemotherapy and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well giving vaccine therapy together with paclitaxel, carboplatin, and radiation therapy works in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the safety and feasibility of standard paclitaxel, carboplatin, and radiotherapy in combination with vaccinia-CEA-TRICOM vaccine, fowlpox-CEA-TRICOM vaccine, and recombinant fowlpox GM-CSF vaccine in patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer.

Secondary

  • Determine clinical response in patients treated with this regimen.
  • Determine time to disease progression and overall median survival of patients treated with this regimen.
  • Determine immunologic response in patients treated with this regimen.
