A Complementary Trial of an Immunotherapy Vaccine Against Tumor-Specific EGFRvIII
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating PEP-3 vaccine, sargramostim, and 1 other intervention for Malignant Neoplasms of Brain. Completed, enrolled 40 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from a peptide may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Colony-stimulating factors, such as GM-CSF, increase the number of white blood cells and platelets found in bone marrow or peripheral blood. Giving vaccine therapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well vaccine therapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme.
