Autologous Vaccine for Follicular Lymphoma

January 29, 2014 updated by: Icon Genetics GmbH

Phase I Study of an Autologous Recombinant Idiotypic Vaccine Manufactured by magnICON® Technology for the Treatment of Patients With Relapsed or Transformed Follicular Lymphoma

This phase I study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of an autologous idiotype vaccine manufactured by magnICON technology for patients with relapsed follicular lymphoma who are in complete or partial remission following non-antiCD20 containing salvage therapy. Data in terms of idiotype-specific immune responses will also be obtained.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with histologically proven follicular lymphoma (grade 1, 2, or 3a), in clinical relapse/progression requiring treatment
  • Subjects must have had first line treatment consisting of rituximab with or without rituximab maintenance therapy (i.e. rituximab monotherapy, R-CHOP, R-CVP, R-FND, etc)
  • At least 4 months since last rituximab exposure
  • Subjects may have had any number of prior treatment regimens. If enrolled with transformed follicular lymphoma, study subject must have had anthracycline in a previous regimen
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-2
  • Life expectancy of at least 12 months
  • Presence of at least a 2x2 cm in diameter lymph node (either a single lymph node or combined volume of lymphoid tissue) accessible for excision; for histological confirmation of diagnosis and for manufacture of the vaccine
  • Measurable disease in neck, chest, abdomen, or pelvis as assessed by computed tomography (CT) scan such that response to 2nd line chemotherapy can be defined by the criteria of Cheson et al (JCO 2007; 25:579, see appendix 15.2 and ref 65). PET scan results are not required for enrollment

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Exposure to rituximab or antiCD-20 directed therapy within the 4 months prior to enrollment

  • History of organ allograft
  • Patients undergoing renal dialysis

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Arm 1

1.0 mg of vaccine subcutaneously (s.c.) on Day 1, and followed by 125 µg GM-CSF s.c. at Day 1 -4, monthly until 8th vaccination, bimonthly until 12th vaccination (month 16)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Proportion of patients with toxicities as assessed by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI/CTCAE) version 3.0 grade >/= 3 to the magnICON generated idiotype (Id) vaccine
Time Frame: One month after sixth vaccination (=7 month after achievement of tumour remission and recovery of normal blood values)
One month after sixth vaccination (=7 month after achievement of tumour remission and recovery of normal blood values)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Assessment of humoral idiotype-specific immune responses
Time Frame: One month after sixth vaccination (=7 month after achievement of tumour remission and recovery of normal blood values)
One month after sixth vaccination (=7 month after achievement of tumour remission and recovery of normal blood values)
Assessment of cellular idiotype-specific immune responses
Time Frame: One month after sixth vaccination (=7 month after achievement of tumour remission and recovery of normal blood values)
One month after sixth vaccination (=7 month after achievement of tumour remission and recovery of normal blood values)

Time Frame: Up to the conclusion of a 12 cycle vaccination phase (month 16)
Up to the conclusion of a 12 cycle vaccination phase (month 16)
