A Clinical Trial of Autologous Oxidized Tumor Cell Lysate Vaccine For Recurrent Ovarian, Fallopian Tube or Primary Peritoneal Cancer

This is a Phase I/II randomized study for subjects with recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer to determine the feasibility and safety as well as immunogenicity of OC-L, an autologous vaccine comprised of autologous Oxidized tumor Cell Lysate (OC-L) administered by intradermal/subcutaneous injection in combination with Ampligen (poly-l:poly-C12U), a Toll-like receptor 3 agonist. Study duration is 24 months.

This is a Phase I/II randomized study for subjects with recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer to determine the feasibility and safety as well as immunogenicity of OC-L, an autologous vaccine comprised of autologous Oxidized tumor Cell Lysate (OC-L) administered by intradermal/subcutaneous injection in combination with Ampligen (poly-l:poly-C12U), a Toll-like receptor 3 agonist. Study duration is 24 months. This study has two Phases eligible subjects enrolled in Phase 1 will receive the OC-L admixed with Montanide ISA 51 with intravenous Ampligen. Subjects enrolled in Phase II will be randomized to two ARMS. This randomized design will allow for the unbiased evaluation and comparison of immune response among the 2 treatment arms. patients will be randomized (10 per treatment arm) in blocks of size 4 or 6, such that treatment assignment will be balanced after each group of 4 or 6 patients has been randomized. ARM A 10 patients will receive OC-L. Arm b 10 patients will receive OC-L with Ampligen. Following each vaccination, subjects in Phase I and Arm B will be given intravenous Ampligen 3 times starting 2-3 days after each vaccine administration. All subjects will receive vaccine on Day 0, 14, 28, 42 and 56. Subjects will receive Prevnar on day 0 and day 14. Subjects will be treated till exhaustion of OC-L or disease progression whichever occurs first subjects will be contacted every 6 months for up to 5 years and then annually for survival. The OC-L study product is manufactured and quality tested at Cell and Vaccine Production Facility and then released to IDS, where it will be admixed with Montanide ISA 51 VG on day of vaccination.
