NCT00624182

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immune response of different doses of URLC10 peptide emulsified with Montanide ISA51 in combination with gemcitabine. Recommended phase II dose will be also determined.

Study Arms (1)

Phase I study

EXPERIMENTAL
Biological: Peptide vaccine for URLC10Drug: Gemcitabine

Interventions

Increasing the doses of URLC10 peptides will be administered by subcutaneous injection on day 1, 8, 15, and 22 of each 28-day treatment cycles. Doses of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0mg/body are planned. Repeated cycles of this therapy will be continued until patients develop progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity, or maximum 2 cycles, whichever occurs first.

Also known as: Gemcitabine
Phase I study

Gemcitabine will be administered intravenously at a fixed dose of 1000mg/m2 on day 1, 8, and 15. Repeated cycles of this therapy will be continued until patients develop progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity, or maximum 2 cycles, whichever occurs first.
