Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects (good and bad) a tumor vaccine used in combination with GM.CD40L and CCL21 have on the patient and their cancer. We also want to find out if the vaccine and the drugs can boost the immune system of these patients and how their immune system reacts, both before and after the vaccine treatment.

Conditions

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Phase I - GM.CD40L.CCL21 Vaccinations

This is a dual-agent, Phase I study with an expansion of each group at the recommended Phase II dose. Participants are entered in cohorts of 3 at the first dose level. Doses are not escalated over the course of treatment of an individual patient. Phase I: Participants receive the GM.CD40L.CCL21 vaccine in a standard 3+3 design.

BIOLOGICAL

Phase II - GM.CD40L cells Vaccinations

Patients randomized to Arm A will receive vaccinations on 3 occasions, at 2 week intervals. 7.5 X 10\^6 irradiated H1944 tumor cells, 7.5 X 10\^6 irradiated H2122 cells, and containing 15 X 10\^6 GM.CD40L cells (1.1 mL) will be injected intradermally into 4 separate sites (0.25 ml injected at each site), in bilateral proximal upper and lower extremities (in the regions of the axillary and inguinal nodal basins). Patients will be restaged approximately 2 weeks after vaccine 3. If patients show no sign of disease progression, patients will then be vaccinated at 4-week intervals.

BIOLOGICAL

Phase II - GM.CD40L.CCL21 Vaccinations

This is a dual-agent, Phase I study with an expansion of each group at the recommended Phase II dose. Participants are entered in cohorts of 3 at the first dose level. Doses are not escalated over the course of treatment of an individual patient. Phase II: Participants are randomized to one of the 2 arms (ratio 1:1): GM.CD40L versus GM.CD40L.CCL21. Patients in Arm B will receive vaccines at the same dose and schedule as described for patients in Arm A. In addition, their vaccine will include H1944 cells expressing CCL21. Note for patients on Arms A and B: the use of steroid medication is to be avoided for 4 weeks before to the initiation of vaccine therapy and during the vaccine treatment period.
