简要总结
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from human papillomavirus may make the body build an immune response to and kill cervical cancer cells. Combining vaccine therapy with surgery may be a more effective treatment for cervical cancer.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving vaccine therapy together with surgery works in treating patients with early cervical cancer.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
- Evaluate the systemic immunological response to the human papilloma virus vaccine (TA-HPV) expressing the proteins 16, 18, E6 and E7 examining the cytolytic T cell and the antibody responses in cervical cancer patients.
- Investigate further the safety and toxic effects of TA-HPV in these patients.
- Assess the proliferative capacity of T cells to the E6 and E7 proteins.
- Observe any influence of vaccination with TA-HPV on the disease free interval or patterns of recurrence in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is an open-label, nonrandomized study.
Patients receive 2 vaccinations of the human papilloma virus with proteins 16, 18, E6 and E7 at least 4 weeks apart, with the first vaccination at least 2 weeks before surgery and the second 8 weeks after the first one, unless unacceptable toxicity occurs. Patients who require radiotherapy following surgery receive their second vaccination 4-8 weeks after the first vaccination.
Twenty-eight patients are entered initially; if at least 2 patients show an immunologic response, 16 additional patients are entered.
