Trial summary

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Vaccines made from cancer cells may make the body build an immune response to kill colorectal tumor cells. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Trial of an Allogeneic Cell Based Vaccine and an Anti-Idiotypic Antibody Vaccine Approach for Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of the Colon or Rectum

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Vaccines made from cancer cells may make the body build an immune response to kill colorectal tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of monoclonal antibody therapy and/or vaccine therapy in treating patients who have locally advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the safety and tolerability of monoclonal antibody 105AD7 anti-idiotypic vaccine and ONYCR1, ONYCR2, and ONYCR3 allogeneic adenocarcinoma cell-based vaccines in patients with locally advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum.
  • Determine any immunological response to these treatment regimens in these patients.
  • Determine the 6-month and 1-year survival of these patients after receiving these treatment regimens.
  • Determine the tumor response to these treatment regimens in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is an open-label study. Patients are assigned to one of three treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Patients receive monoclonal antibody 105AD7 anti-idiotype vaccine (MOAB 105AD7) plus BCG intradermally (ID) weekly for weeks 1 and 2; MOAB 105AD7 ID plus alum adjuvant intramuscularly (IM) weekly for weeks 4 and 6; and then MOAB 105AD7 ID alone monthly for up to 12 months.
  • Arm II: Patients receive ONYCR1, ONYCR2, and ONYCR3 allogeneic adenocarcinoma cell-based vaccines plus BCG ID weekly for weeks 1 and 2; these vaccines ID weekly for weeks 4 and 6, and then monthly for up to 12 months.
  • Arm III: Patients receive MOAB 105AD7, ONYCR1, ONYCR2, and ONYCR3 allogeneic adenocarcinoma cell-based vaccines, and BCG ID weekly for weeks 1 and 2; MOAB 105AD7 and ONYCR1, ONYCR2, and ONYCR3 allogeneic adenocarcinoma cell-based vaccines ID plus alum adjuvant IM weekly for weeks 4 and 6; and then MOAB 105AD7 and ONYCR1, ONYCR2, and ONYCR3 allogeneic adenocarcinoma cell-based vaccines monthly for up to 12 months.

Patients are followed every 3 months.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 45 patients (15 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing BCG vaccine, monoclonal antibody 105AD7 anti-idiotype vaccine and alum adjuvant in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Onyvax at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Sep 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Sep 2013.
