Vaccination Priming and Vaccine Boosting Trial of Allogeneic Human GM-CSF Gene Transduced Irradiated Prostate Cancer Cell Vaccines (GVAX® Vaccine for Prostate Cancer)

August 30, 2005 updated by: Cell Genesys

Phase I/II Study of Vaccination Priming and Vaccine Boosting With Allogeneic Human GM-CSF Gene Transduced Irradiated Prostate Cancer Cell Vaccines in Patients With Prostate Cancer

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of priming vaccinations, and subsequent boosting vaccinations with GVAX® Vaccine for Prostate Cancer. Clinical observations and laboratory measurements will be monitored to evaluate safety and toxicity. Additionally, the antitumor effects of GVAX® Vaccine for Prostate Cancer on serum PSA levels, will be evaluated and antitumor responses will be quantitated.
