Health condition(s) or Problem(s) studiedAdvanced cancer patients who are refractory to standard therapies for cancer
Date of first enrollment2007/03/01
Target sample size40
Countries of recruitmentJapan
Study typeInterventional
Intervention(s)Peptides (maximum 4) among 24 (each 8 for HLA-A2, -A24, and -A3 super type) peptides, which were identified as vaccine candidates for cancer patients, are administered with Freund incomplete adjuvant. Vaccine peptide selection for each patient will be performed according to the reactivity of pre-vaccination plasma IgG to the candidate peptides. Each emulsified peptide (3 mg/peptide) are separately injected into subcutaneous once a week for 6-weeks (total 6 times). Chest X-ray and/or CT/MRI, and blood samples for hematology and biochemistry are taken at beginning and 1-week after the 6th vaccination.

Outcome(s)

Primary OutcomeAdverse events of peptide vaccine are evaluated based on the CTCAE v3.0 (JCOG version).
Secondary OutcomeEvaluation of immunological responses (cytotoxic T-lymphocytes , anti-peptide IgG) before and after vaccination.
