About this study

Official title: A Phase I Trial of a Recombinant Human hsp110-gp100 Chaperone Complex Vaccine for Advanced Stage IIIB/C or IV Melanoma

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of vaccine therapy in treating patients with stage III-IV melanoma that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced). Vaccines made from peptides or antigens may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and clinically appropriate dose of human heat shock protein (hsp)110-gp100 chaperone complex melanoma vaccine (recombinant hsp110-gp100 chaperone complex vaccine) to recommend a phase II dose in stage IIIB/C and stage IV metastatic melanoma patients.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To examine the effect of the recombinant human hsp110-gp100 chaperone complex vaccine on measurable clinical tumor.

II. To determine gp100 and hsp110 specific cell mediated and humoral immune responses elicited by the chaperone complex vaccine.

III. To determine the effect of dose and serial administration of the chaperone complex vaccine on cell mediated and humoral immune responses.

IV. To quantify patient characteristics (human leukocyte antigen [HLA] subtype, immune cell function, etc.) that may correlate with immune response to the chaperone complex vaccine.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.

Patients receive recombinant hsp110-gp100 chaperone complex vaccine intradermally (ID) on days 1, 15, and 43 in the absence of unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 6 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. MTD of recombinant human hsp110-gp100 chaperone complex melanoma vaccine based on the probability of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4

    DLT is defined as grade 3 or 4 toxicity or grade 3 injection site toxicity, with the exception of grade 3 rigors/chills which will be tolerated for 48-72 hours if attributable to vaccine reaction.

    Measured: Up to 30 days after the last vaccine dose

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Objective tumor response according to RECIST version 1.1

    Recombinant hsp110-gp100 chaperone complex vaccine specific cell mediated and humoral immune responses elicited by the chaperone complex vaccine as well as the effect of dose and serial administration on these responses will be assessed through the correlative science studies.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Recombinant Human Hsp110-gp100 Chaperone Complex Vaccine and Laboratory Biomarker Analysis in people with Recurrent Melanoma and Stage IIIB Skin Melanoma, run by Roswell Park Cancer Institute 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?

The sponsor lists 15 inclusion and 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jul 2022. 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: Study was Suspended since 2018; PI decided to terminate.). 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?

MTD of recombinant human hsp110-gp100 chaperone complex melanoma vaccine based on the probability of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4 (time frame: Up to 30 days after the last vaccine dose). 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 22 Jul 2022.
