A Phase 1 Study of Mixed Bacteria Vaccine (MBV) in Patients With Tumors Expressing NY-ESO-1 Antigen.
In Brief
A Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating Mixed bacterial vaccine for Melanoma and 8 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 17 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This was a phase 1, open-label, multiple dose, single-arm study. The mixed bacteria vaccine (MBV) was administered at a starting dose of 250 EU (1 µL) and escalated in each subject to a dose inducing the desired pyrogenic effect, defined as a body temperature of 38°C to 39.5°C. The primary objective was to determine the safety profile of MBV in subjects with malignant tumors that expressed the NY-ESO-1 antigen and to identify the dose that induced the desired pyrogenic effect. Secondary objectives were to evaluate the immunological effects and tumor response of subjects following vaccination.

Interventions
MBV was administered twice weekly by subcutaneous injection in Cohort 1 and by intralesional (preferred) or subcutaneous (if intralesional not possible) injection in Cohort 2. In Cohort 1, the MBV starting dose was 250 EU (dose level 1) with possible intrasubject escalations up to 547,000 EU (dose level 8). In Cohort 2, all subjects received MBV at a fixed dose of 60,800 EU (dose level 6).
