Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of administering Wilms tumor gene 1 (WT1) cancer peptides. Cancer peptides are short pieces of protein that are made in a laboratory to be like the peptides that can be found in cancer. These peptides are intended to be given as a "vaccine" to activate the immune cells in a person to attack his/her cancer. These peptides are mixed with an oily substance called Montanide ISA-51 and a white cell growth factor called Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) which may help make the immune response stronger.

Conditions

  • Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML)
  • Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML)
  • Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)
  • Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)
  • B Cell Malignancies

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

WT1 derived peptides

WT1 derived peptides consisting of 0.3mg (cohort 1) or 1mg (cohort 2) of each of the following peptides mixed with 1ml Montanide ISA 51 and 100mcg GM-CSF in a total volume of 2ml: * WT peptide #1: HLA-A2 restricted: RMFPNAPYL * WT peptide #2: HLA-A24 restricted: CMTWNQMNL * WT peptide #3: HLA-DR15 restricted: QARMFPNAPYLPSCL * WT peptide #4: HLA-DRw53 restricted: LKGVAAGSSSSVKWT Immunization with the peptide pools will be given as 200 microliter intradermal and 1.8ml subcutaneously in opposite thighs.
