Vaccine Therapy Plus Biological Therapy in Treating Patients With Prostate Cancer
Summary
RATIONALE: Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Biological therapies use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing. Combining vaccine therapy with biological therapy may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness in combining vaccine therapy and biological therapy in treating patients who have relapsed prostate cancer.
Description
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the optimal (in terms of antibody response) and safe dose range of glycosylated MUC-2-Globo H-KLH conjugate vaccine with adjuvant GPI-0100 in patients with biochemically relapsed prostate cancer.
- Assess post-immunization changes in prostate-specific antigen levels and other objective parameters of disease in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of GPI-0100.
Patients receive glycosylated MUC-2-Globo H-KLH conjugate vaccine with adjuvant GPI-0100 subcutaneously weekly on weeks 0-2, 6, 14, and 26 in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.
Cohorts of 5 patients receive escalating doses of GPI-0100 until the optimal dose, based on antibody response, is reached.
Patients are followed every 3 months.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A maximum of 25 patients will be accrued for this study.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Prostate-specific Antigen
A glycoprotein that is a kallikrein-like serine proteinase and an esterase, produced by epithelial cells of both normal and malignant prostate tissue. It is an important marker for the diagnosis of prostate cancer.
Fenretinide
A synthetic retinoid that is used orally as a chemopreventive against prostate cancer and in women at risk of developing contralateral breast cancer. It is also effective as an antineoplastic agent.
Ultrasound, High-intensity Focused, Transrectal
Tissue ablation of the PROSTATE performed by ultrasound from a transducer placed in the RECTUM. The procedure is used to treat prostate cancer (PROSTATIC NEOPLASMS) and benign prostatic hypertrophy (PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA).
Prostatic Secretory Proteins
Proteins secreted by the prostate gland. The major secretory proteins from the human prostate gland include PROSTATE-SPECIFIC ANTIGEN, prostate-specific acid phosphatase, prostate-specific membrane antigen, and prostate-specific protein-94.
Diphtheria-tetanus Vaccine
A combined vaccine used to prevent infection with diphtheria and tetanus toxoid. This is used in place of DTP vaccine (DIPHTHERIA-TETANUS-PERTUSSIS VACCINE) when PERTUSSIS VACCINE is contraindicated.
