About this study

Official title: Phase IB Trial of Active Specific Immunotherapy With MVF-HER-2(628-647) and CRL1005 Copolymer Adjuvant in Patients With Metastatic Cancer

RATIONALE: Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of vaccine therapy in treating patients who have metastatic or recurrent cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the optimum biologic dose of MVF-HER-2(628-647)-CRL 1005 vaccine that will induce anti-HER-2 antibody in patients with metastatic or recurrent cancer. II. Characterize the nature and severity of toxicity of this drug in these patients. III. Document any clinical responses to this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study. Patients receive MVF-HER-2(628-647)-CRL 1005 vaccine intramuscularly on days 1 and 29. Cohorts of 5 patients receive escalating doses of MVF-HER-2(627-647)-CRL 1005 vaccine until at least 2 of 5 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. Patients are followed on days 43 and 57 and every 2 months for at least 1 year.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 5-25 patients will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MVF-HER-2(628-647)-CRL 1005 vaccine in people with Breast Cancer and Gastric Cancer, run by University of Alabama at Birmingham.

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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Aug 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Determine the optimum biologic dose of MVF-HER-2 (628-647)-CRL 1005 vaccine that will induce snit-HER-2 antibody in patients with metastatic or recurrent cancer (time frame: baseline to 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 5 Aug 2013.
