NCT00601796

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects (good and/or bad) a tumor vaccine used in combination with two drugs (ATRA and cytoxan) have on the patient and their cancer. We also want to find out if the vaccine and the drugs can boost the patient's immune system and how their immune system reacts, both before and after the vaccine treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Evaluable Participants With Tumor Response

    Number of participants with evaluable peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) who demonstrated sustained tumor peptide-specific T-cell activation after vaccination. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were collected at baseline and after each vaccination. T-cell activation profiles were analyzed by ELISpot assay and tested by generalized Wilcoxon for correlation to survival.

    3 years

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Median Time to Progression (TTP)

    3 years

  • Median Overall Survival (OS)

    3 years

  • Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    3 years

Study Arms (1)

Combination Immunotherapy

EXPERIMENTAL

Vaccine + Cytoxan + ATRA as outlined in Detailed Description

Biological: Vaccine TreatmentDrug: CyclophosphamideDrug: All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)

Interventions

We created a vaccine in which irradiated allogeneic lung adenocarcinoma cells are combined with a bystander K562 cell line transfected with hCD40L and hGM-CSF. By recruiting and activating dendritic cells, we hypothesized the vaccine would induce tumor regression in metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Intradermal vaccine was given every 14 days x3, followed by monthly x3.

Also known as: Allogeneic Tumor Cell-Based Vaccines
Combination Immunotherapy

Cyclophosphamide (300 mg/m\^2 IV) was administered before 1st and 4th vaccines to deplete regulatory T-cells.

Also known as: cytoxan
Combination Immunotherapy

All-trans retinoic acid was given (150/mg/m\^2/day) after 1st and 4th vaccines to enhance dendritic differentiation.

Also known as: Vesanoid®, tretinoin, all trans retinoic acid, ATRA
Combination Immunotherapy

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histologically confirmed metastatic adenocarcinoma of the lung
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, or 1
  • No radiation therapy within 2 weeks of first vaccine administration
  • No chemotherapy within 4 weeks of first vaccine administration
  • No steroid therapy within 4 weeks of first vaccine administration
  • Patient's written informed consent
  • Adequate organ function (measured within a week of beginning treatment)
  • Measurable metastatic tumor as defined by standard Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. Lesions must be accurately measured in at least one dimension with the longest diameter greater than or equal 20mm. With spiral computer tomography (CT) scan, lesion must be greater than or equal to 10 mm at least one dimension.
  • Patient's must have received, and completed first line chemotherapy.

You may not qualify if:

  • Symptomatic brain metastasis
  • Any acute medical problems requiring active intervention
  • Current corticosteroid (other than replacement doses in patients who are hypoadrenal) or other immunosuppressive therapy
  • Any other pre-existing immunodeficiency condition (including known HIV infection)
  • Pregnant or lactating women -- Patients in reproductive age must agree to use contraceptive methods for the duration of the study (\*A pregnancy test will be obtained before treatment).
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 2, 3 or 4
