NCT02851056

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to test what effects (good and bad) a new cancer vaccine will have on participants and their cancer, when administered before and after their autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). The name of the vaccine is called Dendritic Cell Survivin Vaccine (DC:AdmS). The vaccine is made using the participant's own blood cells. The vaccine will contain a virus called an adenovirus, similar the virus that causes the common cold. The virus has been changed so it cannot infect humans and cause infections. The vaccine will be prepared at Moffitt Cancer Center in the Cell Therapy Laboratory Facility.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Rate of Complete Response (CR)

    Complete Response: A treatment outcome where there are ≤5% plasma cells in the bone marrow and no evidence of myeloma proteins in the serum or urine as measured by standard laboratory techniques.

    90 days post treatment

  • Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events

    The safety of DC:AdmS when administered to patients with myeloma before and at day +21 after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant. The approach for assessing potential toxicity of survivin vaccination will focus predominantly on assessing hematopoietic reconstitution, including T cell repopulation and gastrointestinal toxicity. Investigators will also monitor for autoimmune disorders involving other tissues where survivin expression has been demonstrated: these include keratinocytes and melanocytes, myocardium, liver, breast, and brain. The most sensitive test to assess the potential toxicity of survivin vaccination on hematopoietic function is the time of neutrophil repopulation after autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). Beginning on day of ASCT, participants will be monitored daily for engraftment, defined by an absolute neutrophil count of 500 cells per microliter that is sustained for at least 3 days.

    Up to 6 months post treatment

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Improved Immunologic Response

    180 days (6 months) post vaccination

Study Arms (1)

Survivin Vaccine and Autologous HCT

EXPERIMENTAL

Dendritic Cell Survivin Vaccine (DC:AdmS) and Autologous Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT). Participants will receive 1 pre-transplant survivin vaccine, 7-30 days prior to stem cell apheresis collection. After the first survivin vaccination, participants will be mobilized with Granulocyte-colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF). A second survivin vaccine will be administered on day +21 (between day+20 and +34) after HCT. All participants will be co-immunized with Prevnar 13 at each time they receive the survivin vaccine.

Biological: Survivin VaccineProcedure: Autologous Hematopoietic Cell TransplantationBiological: Prevnar 13Drug: Granulocyte-colony Stimulating Factor

Interventions

Pre-transplant vaccination : The target dose of Survivin+ Dendritic cells (survivin+, CD11c+, Human Leukocyte Antigen - antigen D Related (HLA-DR)+ by flow-cytometry) is 15 x 10\^6 cells. A minimum of 1 x 10\^6 cells and a maximum of 20 x 10\^6 cells will be administered. Post-transplant vaccination: The target dose of Survivin+ Dendritic cells (survivin+, CD11c+, HLA-DR+ by flow-cytometry) is 15 x 10\^6 cells. A minimum of 1 x 10\^6 cells and a maximum of 20 x 10\^6 cells will be administered.

Survivin Vaccine and Autologous HCT

The participant's own cells are collected from their blood, frozen, and then given back to them after they receive chemotherapy.

Prevnar 13BIOLOGICAL

13-Valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV13, Prevnar13). Co-Immunization: All participants will be co-immunized with Prevnar at each time they receive the survivin vaccine. This vaccine will be administered intramuscular (IM) 0.5cc.

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Screening:
  • As of protocol Version 2 there is no "screening phase".Patients previously consented to the screening phase could still be eligible for treatment if consented for treatment, based upon the updated eligibility criteria.
  • Treatment:
  • Patients with histologically confirmed Multiple Myeloma that are being considered for high dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant.
  • Patients must have a bone marrow biopsy available, or one scheduled to be performed for a clinical indication so that survivin expression could be determined (note: survivin staining in tumor need not be resulted prior to enrollment or treatment as it is obtained for correlative science).
  • Patients planned for treatment with high dose melphalan and autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT).
  • Complete blood count (CBC) with an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>= 1,000/uL, hemoglobin \>= 8.0 g/dL and platelet count \>= 50,000/uL.
  • Liver enzymes: total bilirubin less than or equal to 2 mg/dL (\>2 mg/dL permitted if the patient has evidence of Gilbert's disease based upon prior bilirubin elevation or genetic testing); Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) and Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) less than 1.5 X the upper limit of normal (ULN).
  • Signed informed consent form in accordance with institutional and federal law policies.

You may not qualify if:

  • Treatment:
  • Patients with Complete Response (CR) or stringent CR after induction therapy as defined by International Response Criteria after most recent therapy.
  • Patients with progressive disease at time of transplant.
  • Pregnant or lactating woman (as evaluated by serum testing within 48 hours of administration of the first vaccine in women of child bearing potential).
  • HIV infection confirmed by nucleic acid tests (NAT).
  • Common variable immunodeficiency.
  • Active central nervous system (CNS) malignancy.
  • Active bacterial, fungal or viral infection.
  • Prior history of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation
  • Prior malignancy within 5 years of enrollment excluding non-melanoma skin cancer or cervical carcinoma after curative resection, not requiring chemotherapy.
  • History of severe allergy (e.g., anaphylaxis) to any component of Prevnar or any diphtheria-toxoid containing vaccine.
