Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Vaccines may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving vaccine therapy together with bevacizumab after chemotherapy and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving BLP25 liposome vaccine together with bevacizumab after chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage IIIA or stage IIIB non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Proportion of Patients With Target Adverse Events for the Step 2 Treatment

    The study is to evaluate the safety of the combination of tecemotide immunotherapy with bevacizumab. The target adverse events for the combined treatment are as follows: grade 4-5 hemorrhage, esophagitis, fistula, platelet count decrease (thrombocytopenia), encephalitis infection, or hepatic failure episodes.

    Assessed every 3 weeks while on treatment and up to 5 years

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Overall Survival

    Every 3 months for patients < 2 years from study entry, and every 6 months if patient is 2-5 years from study entry; up to 5 years

  • Progression-free Survival

    Every 3 months for patients < 2 years from study entry, and every 6 months if patient is 2-5 years from study entry; up to 5 years

Study Arms (1)

Tecemotide/bevacizumab after chemoradiation

EXPERIMENTAL

Concomitant Chemoradiotherapy: Patients (pts) receive paclitaxel intravenously (IV) over 1 hour and carboplatin IV over 15-30 minutes weekly for 6 weeks. Pts also receive radiotherapy 5 days a week for 6½ weeks. Pts with CR, PR, or SD proceed to consolidation chemotherapy. Consolidation chemotherapy: Pts receive paclitaxel IV over 3 hours and carboplatin IV over 15-30 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression (PD) or unacceptable toxicity. Pts with CR, PR, or SD proceed to maintenance therapy. Maintenance therapy: Pts receive a single dose of cyclophosphamide IV over 15-30 minutes 3 days before the first dose of bevacizumab and tecemotide. Pts then receive bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on day 1 and tecemotide subcutaneously on days 1, 8, and 15 of courses 1 and 2 and on day 1 of every other course beginning in course 4. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 34 courses in the absence of PD or unacceptable toxicity.
