Decitabine and Vaccine Therapy for Patients With Relapsed AML Following Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation
- Conditions
- Acute Myelogenous Leukemia
- Interventions
- Biological: Vaccine
- Registration Number
- NCT01483274
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Louisville
- Brief Summary
Patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) who relapse after an allogeneic stem cell transplant cell receive decitabine to up regulate cancer antigen expression, followed by a donor lymphocyte infusion and an autologous dendritic cell (DC). Vaccine Dendritic cells are pulsed with overlapping peptides derived from MAGE-A1, MAGE-A3, and NY-ESO-1.
- Detailed Description
For vaccine production, mature DC will be pulsed with overlapping peptides mixes derived from full-length NY-ESO-1, MAGE-A1, and MAGE-A3.
