Primary outcomePrimary: Tumor Response Rate (RR) — 8; 6; 12; 1 participants

Summary

The purpose of this research study is to test a tumor (cancer) vaccine given along with chemotherapy to determine if this vaccine will increase the chances of the tumor shrinking and/or the amount of time that people who have this disease will live.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria at the time of initial registration:

  • Patients must have a histological confirmed diagnosis of Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC)
  • Must have extensive stage SCLC
  • Must have completed first line chemotherapy: 4-6 cycles of a standard platinum/etoposide regimen and PCI if chosen at the discretion of the treating Oncologist
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-2
  • Acceptable (adequate) organ function including:
  • White blood count (WBC) >2, 500/mm³ and Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >1,200/mm³
  • Platelets > 75,000/mm³
  • Hematocrit > 24% OR Hemoglobin ≥8.5g/dl
  • Bilirubin 18 months.
  • Have not recovered from any chemotherapy-related or other therapy-related toxicity at study entry
  • Have had major surgery without full recovery or major surgery within 3 weeks of the start of vaccine treatment
  • Patients with other significant diseases or disorders that, in the Investigator's opinion, would exclude them from the study

Pre-Pheresis Criteria:

  • Patients who received radiation therapy: last dose of radiation must have been completed at least 2 weeks prior to the first vaccine administration and the patient must have recovered from the toxic effects of the treatment prior to study enrollment (except for alopecia)
  • Patients who received steroid therapy: last steroid dose must have been given at least 2 weeks prior to the first vaccine administration
  • Adequate organ function:
  • WBC > 2,500/mm³ and ANC >1,200/mm³
  • Platelets > 75,000/mm³
  • Hematocrit > 25%
  • Hemoglobin ≥9g/dl
  • Bilirubin 2,500/mm³ and ANC >1,200/mm³
  • Platelets > 75,000/mm³
  • Hematocrit > 25%
  • Hemoglobin ≥9g/dl
  • Bilirubin < 2.0 mg/dl
  • Creatinine < 2.0 mg/dL
  • AST/SGOT ≤ 2 x ULN
