Vaccine Therapy With or Without Donor Lymphocyte Infusion in Treating Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, or Multiple Myeloma Undergoing Donor Stem Cell Transplant

A Phase 1 study testing autologous tumor cell vaccine and peripheral blood lymphocyte therapy in people with Leukemia and Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Neoplasm, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins at 1 site in United States.

Terminated

Stopped early. The study ended before it was planned to and will not resume.

Trial summary

RATIONALE: Vaccines made from the patient's cancer cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. Giving vaccine therapy together with donor lymphocyte infusion after a stem cell transplant from the patient's brother or sister may kill any cancer cells that remain after transplant.

About this study

Official title: Posttransplant Immunotherapy With Donor Lymphocyte Infusions and Autologous Tumor Vaccines After HLA-Matched Transplant

RATIONALE: Vaccines made from the patient's cancer cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. Giving vaccine therapy together with donor lymphocyte infusion after a stem cell transplant from the patient's brother or sister may kill any cancer cells that remain after transplant.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the side effects, best dose, and how well vaccine therapy with or without donor lymphocyte infusion works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or multiple myeloma undergoing donor stem cell transplant.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine time to relapse and overall survival of patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or multiple myeloma treated with autologous tumor cell vaccine with or without donor lymphocyte infusion after HLA-matched related sibling nonmyeloablative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
  • Evaluate the safety and tolerability of this regimen in these patients.
  • Determine the maximum tolerated dose of donor lymphocyte infusions in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients undergo collection of tumor cells for production of the cancer cell vaccine and then undergo HLA-matched related sibling nonmyeloablative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Patients then receive cancer cell vaccine with or without donor lymphocyte infusion. The donor lymphocytes are obtained from the same relative who donated stem cells for the HSCT.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 30 patients will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing autologous tumor cell vaccine and peripheral blood lymphocyte therapy in people with Leukemia and Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Neoplasm, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins at 1 site in United States.

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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Mar 2014. 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 States. 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 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 stopped early (reason given: low accrual). 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to relapse. The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 21 Mar 2014.
