Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Vaccine-related Grade 3 or 4 toxicity (other than skin toxicity and influenza-like symptoms) according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 3.0
During the study.
Objective clinical response (CR or PR)
At each tumor evaluation (Visits 7, 14 and 21)
Secondary Outcomes (19)
Stable disease
At each tumor evaluation (Visits 7, 14 and 21)
Mixed response
At each tumor evaluation (Visits 7, 14 and 21)
Time to disease progression
At the time of analysis.
Time to onset of response, defined as time from first vaccination to the initial response
At the time of analysis.
The duration of overall response is measured from the time that measurement criteria are met for complete response or partial response until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented
At the time of analysis.
- +14 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (2)
Group A
EXPERIMENTALPatients receive study vaccinations in 3 consecutive cycles: * In Cycle 1 each patients will receive six vaccinations at two-week intervals followed by evaluation. * In Cycle 2, subjects will patients six vaccinations at two-week intervals followed by evaluation. * In Cycle 3, subjects will patients six vaccinations at three-week intervals.
Group B
EXPERIMENTALPatients receive study vaccinations as second-line therapy
Interventions
Patients receive six vaccinations at two-week intervals
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Female.
- At least 18 years of age.
- Written informed consent to participate in the study.
- Diagnosis of advanced breast cancer. Furthermore, for patients being considered for second-line study treatment only: The patient has received a first-line chemotherapy together with Herceptin - or Herceptin alone - for her metastatic breast disease meeting all of the following conditions:
- i) For patients who have received a first-line chemotherapy together with Herceptin:
- The administration of chemotherapeutic agent(s) has been stopped for at least 3 months, or will have been stopped for at least 3 months by the time of the first study vaccination, and
- The administration of Herceptin alone was maintained after chemotherapy.
- ii) The last dose of Herceptin was given not less than 3 weeks before the study vaccination.
- iii) The patient will not be given Herceptin during the trial.
- A tumor lesion from the patient biopsied before or during screening, shows either i) overexpression of the HER2 protein, as determined by IHC (result: IHC 3+), or ii) amplification of the HER2 gene as determined by FISH (at least 4-fold, i.e., at least 8 copies).
- For patients being considered for first-line study treatment only: The patient's metastatic disease affects the skin and/or the lymph nodes and/or the lungs, but no other organ (with the exception of asymptomatic bone lesions). For patients being considered for second-line study treatment only: The patient's metastatic disease may affect any organ(s) with the exception of the central nervous system (CNS).
- At least one measurable lesion.
- ECOG status of 0 or 1.
- Agree to use effective contraception for the duration of the study and statement not to plan to bear children in the future.
- Result of serum β-HCG pregnancy test at the screening visit is negative. (This does not apply to patients who are not of child-bearing potential)
- +6 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- For patients being considered for first-line study treatment only:
- Received any chemotherapy for metastatic breast disease.
- Received \>300 mg/m2 doxorubicin (cumulative dose) or \>600 mg/m2 epirubicin (cumulative dose).
- Although hormone therapy as a first-line therapy for metastatic disease is accepted, it must NOT have been started or modified (in nature or dosage) within the 12 weeks before the first study vaccination, and NO such change during the study period may be anticipated.
- Treatment with bisphosphonate UNLESS the bisphosphonate treatment was initiated more than 3 months before first study vaccination.
- Received any investigational or non-registered drug or vaccine other than the study vaccine within the 30 days preceding the first dose of study vaccine, or plans to receive such a drug during the study period.
- Any organ other than skin, lymph nodes, bone and lung is affected by the metastatic disease.
- If the lung is affected: \>3 lung lesions have been detected.
- If the lung is affected: Any lesion measures 30 mm or more (longest diameter).
- If the lung is affected: The lung metastases cause any functional impairment.
- The patient has a history of congestive heart failure or difficult-to-control hypertension, hypercholesterolemia or diabetes.
- The patient has known coronary artery disease, arrhythmia requiring treatment, clinically significant valvular disease, cardiomegaly on chest X-ray, ventricular hypertrophy (found by ECG) or previous myocardial infarction.
- The patient has any acute or chronic, clinically significant pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatic or renal functional abnormality, as determined by physical examination or laboratory screening tests.
- The patient presents with autoimmune disease.
- The patient requires chronic administration of immunosuppressive drugs including corticosteroids.
