简要总结
This phase I clinical trial studies the side effects of vaccine therapy and cyclophosphamide in treating patients with stage II-III breast cancer or stage II-IV ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer. Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving vaccine therapy and cyclophosphamide may kill more tumor cells.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the safety of administering one cycle of cyclophosphamide and six subsequent monthly vaccinations with a peptide-based vaccine targeting folate receptor (FR)-alpha (multi-epitope folate receptor alpha peptide vaccine).
II. To assess the ability of this vaccination protocol to elicit an immune response as measured by activated FR-alpha-specific T lymphocytes or high-affinity antibodies.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine FR-alpha expression status of primary tumors when available as formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded material and whether expression correlates with the ability to generate an immune response.

排除标准
- •Any of the following:

- •Nursing women unwilling to stop breast feeding
- •Men or women of childbearing potential who are unwilling to employ adequate contraception from the time of registration through cycle 6 (or the final vaccine cycle for each patient)

研究组 & 干预措施
Treatment (cyclophosphamide and vaccine therapy)
Patients receive cyclophosphamide PO BID on days 1-7 and 15-21 of course 1. Within 3-5 days, patients receive multi-epitope folate receptor alpha peptide vaccine ID on day 1. Vaccine treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
干预措施: Cyclophosphamide (Drug)

结局指标
主要结局
Proportion of patients who experience severe toxicities (grades 3-5 of the National Cancer Institute's Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program [CTEP] Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 4.0)
时间窗: Up to 12 months
Defined as adverse events that are classified as either unrelated, unlikely to be related, possibly, probably, or definitely related to study treatment. The maximum grade for each type of toxicity will be recorded for each patient, and frequency tables will be reviewed by primary disease site to determine toxicity patterns.
次要结局
- Percentage change in plasma concentration of cytokines and chemokines(Baseline to up to 12 months)
- Disease-free survival(Time from registration to documentation of disease recurrence, second primary, or death without disease recurrence or second primary, assessed up to 12 months)
- FRa expression(Up to 12 months)
- Overall survival time(Time from registration to death due to any cause, assessed up to 12 months)
