简要总结
This study was conducted in order to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the cancer vaccine IMA901 and GM-CSF as adjuvant in the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma.
Patients received vaccination with GM-CSF followed by IMA901 during the study period of 9 months. Patients received pre-treatment with a single i.v. infusion of cyclophosphamide prior to the first vaccination.
详细描述
This is a multicenter, open label, randomized phase 2 study which investigated the effect of a second-line systemic treatment with IMA901 plus GM-CSF in RCC patients. Randomization was done according to a pre-treatment with low-dose cyclophosphamide (CY). Secondary endpoints comprised tumor response parameters.
The study population consisted of HLA-A*02-positive men or women with advanced RCC of the clear-cell type classified as having a favorable or intermediate risk after first-line systemic therapy for. Patients had to be aged 18 years or older, had at least have one measurable tumor lesion and had have received first-line tyrosine kinase inhibitor or cytokine systemic therapy for advanced disease, during or after which the patient had experienced disease progression.
Patients in both arms received a total of 17 vaccinations with GM-CSF followed by IMA901 during the 9 month treatment period.
At screening baseline tumor status was assessed by CT or MRI. During the study tumor assessments were performed every 6 weeks.
Immunomonitoring (T-cell responses to peptides contained in IMA901 and analysis of other immune cell populations that may influence T-cell responses), serum levels of antibodies and molecules with suspected influence on immune response were assessed on several occasions during the study.
