Official title
A Phase I Clinical Trial of Autologous Dendritic Cell Vaccine Leaded With Autologous Tumor Cell Lysate for Recurrent Ovarian or Primary Peritoneal Cancer
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study is open to women with recurrent epithelial ovarian carcinoma or primary peritoneal cancer. Subjects will be asked to donate either a piece of their tumor or malignant effusion in order to make the first part of the vaccine or lysate. If enough of the lystate had been collected to make the first part of the vaccine, then subjects may enroll in the study as long as they meet the rest of the entry criteria. After is determined that a subject is eligible to enroll into the study, you will have to donate some blood in order to make the second part of the vaccine. After this, the blood and vaccine are mixed together to make the vaccine called DCVax-L. You will be given two dose of a drug called Avastin every other week (Avastin will be given through your vein) and a oral chemotherapy called Cytoxan. One week after your last dose of oral Cytoxan, you will receive 3 vaccines given every other week for the next month. After the first two doses of vaccine, you will also receive more Avastin. During the study you will be seeing your study team to have physical exams, blood drawn in order to monitor your health and have blood drawn for research. The study team will contact you for the next 5 years in order to determine how you are doing.
