Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

autologous tumor cells plus GM-CSF-in Adjuvant

Autologous tumor cells plus 225 ug GM-CSF in-adjuvant: The autologous tumor cells will be administered intradermally. Subjects will be vaccinated over at least a 6 week period (at weeks 0, 1, 2, 4, 5, 6), with responders vaccinated every 4 weeks thereafter for a maximum of 9 vaccinations (up to week 18). Systemic low-dose interleukin-2 will also be administered daily for 6 weeks following the second vaccination at week 1. Concurrent with the first three of these vaccinations, each patient will also receive an additional set of 3 vaccinations in a different site, the response to which will be evaluated at the draining lymph node. This node will be harvested using lymphatic mapping and sentinel node biopsy methods.
