About this study

Official title: Phase I Clinical Trial of a Therapeutic Vaccine for Malignancies, Comprising the Tumor Antigen NY-ESO-1 in Combination With the Adjuvant MPLA of Bordetella Pertussis. Evaluation of Toxicity and Immunogenicity

This study is a clinical trial phase I/II. Its goal is to determine the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity and efficacy of a therapeutic vaccine with the tumor antigen NY-ESO-1 combined with the adjuvant MPLA from B. pertussis in cancer patients.

Read the detailed description

The safety and immunogenicity of the vaccine with the antigen NY-ESO-1 in combination with the MPLA will be evaluated in a phase 1 clinical trial conducted in patients with malignancies that express the antigen (lung, ovarian and melanoma). This study will involve 15 patients, who will receive 250 mcg of NY-ESO-1 and 100 mcg of MPLA.

Being tested
NY-ESO-1 combined with MPLA, NY-ESO-1 combined with MPLA vaccine

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • NY-ESO-1 combined with MPLABiological

    Each patient will receive six doses of the formulation, administered intra-muscular, with an interval of 4 weeks between doses, and the first immunization performed 6 weeks after the completion of standard treatment. NY-ESO-1 (250 mcg) amd MPLA (100 mcg).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Safety

    CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events)

    Measured: Six months after immunization.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Immunogenicity

    IgG against NY-ESO-1 (ELISA). NY-ESO-1-specific T cells CD4+ and CD8+ (ELISPOT and FACs - flow citometry with tetramers).

    Measured: Six months after immunization.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing NY-ESO-1 combined with MPLA and NY-ESO-1 combined with MPLA vaccine in people with Cancer. and Melanoma., run by Instituto de Investigação em Imunologia at 1 site in Brazil.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Apr 2012. 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 Brazil. 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?

Contact Pedro Giavina-Bianchi, PhD,MD ((5511) 26616098, pbianchi@usp.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety (time frame: Six months after immunization.). 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 25 Apr 2012.
