Autologous Dendritic Cells in Treating Patients With Metastatic Kidney Cancer

Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma Clinical Trial

Official title: A Phase I, Open Label, Dose Escalation and Cohort Expansion Study to Evaluate the Safety and Immune Response to Autologous Dendritic Cells Transduced With Ad-GMCAIX in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of autologous dendritic cells in treating patients with metastatic kidney cancer. Vaccines made from a person's tumor cells and white blood cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells.

Clinical Trial Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the safety and tolerability of dendritic cell (DC)-AdGM carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) administered by intradermal injections at study doses and schedule.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate clinical antitumor effects following study treatment according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guideline version 1.1. Parameters include objective response (complete response [CR], partial response [PR]), duration of response in patients with objective response, and time to disease progression.

II. To evaluate immune responses to DC-AdGMCAIX vaccination by enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISpot) for numeric determination of CAIX specific T cells in blood.

III. To evaluate immune responses to DC-AdGMCAIX vaccination by cytokine profiling of T cell culture supernatants for characterization of the immune response in subjects with demonstrated immune activation may be performed.

IV. To evaluate immune responses to DC-AdGMCAIX vaccination by anti-sargramostim (GM-CSF) antibody response.

V. To evaluate tumor biopsies for immune cell infiltrates.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.

Patients receive AdGMCAIX-transduced autologous dendritic cells intradermally (ID) on days 1, 15, and 29.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 2-3 months for at least 6 months. ;
