About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of the Feasibility to Derive Autologous Vaccine (HSPPC-96) From Tumor Tissue for Clinical Administration in Patients With Resectable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Antigenics is enrolling patients in a Phase II study testing the feasibility to derive an autologous investigational vaccine (HSPPC-96) from the tumor tissue of patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer.

Vaccine production will be attempted on all patients who undergo surgery and meet all inclusion/exclusion criteria.

Read the detailed description

Antigenics is enrolling patients in a Phase II study testing the feasibility to derive an autologous investigational vaccine (HSPPC-96) from the tumor tissue of patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer.

All patients will undergo surgery to remove the tumor and will be followed for recurrence and overall survival.

The primary goal of this trial is to determine if HSPPC-96 can be made from the tumor tissue of patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer.

The secondary goals are to further characterize the safety and efficacy profile, to evaluate disease recurrence in patients receiving, and to evaluate overall survival in patients receiving HSPPC-96.

HSPPC-96 is an investigational, immunotherapeutic agent made from an individual patient's own tumor, which is collected at the time of surgery. A portion of the tumor tissue is sent to Antigenics' manufacturing facility where it will undergo processing to create a vaccine. This vaccine may help the patient's immune system attack cancerous cells while leaving healthy cells alone.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing HSPPC-96 in people with Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma and Lung Cancer, run by Agenus Inc. 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?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Mar 2009. 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 phase mean?

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

The primary goal of this trial is to determine if HSPPC-96 can be made from the tumor tissue of patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer.. 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 9 Mar 2009.
