Study Details

This phase IIa trial compares the safety and effect of temozolomide combined with survivin long peptide vaccine (SurVaxM) to temozolomide alone in patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NET) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) and is growing, spreading or getting worse (progressing). Temozolomide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid and may kill tumor cells and slow down or stop tumor growth. Survivin, a protein, is expressed in 50% of patients that have neuroendocrine tumors and, is associated with poor outcomes. SVN53-67/M57-KLH peptide vaccine (SurVaxM) is a vaccine that has been shown to produce an immune system response against cancer cells that express a survivin and may block the growth of new tumor cells. Giving temozolomide with SurVaxM may kill more tumor cells in patients with progressing metastatic neuroendocrine tumors.

Arms

  • Experimental: (temozolomide, SurVaxM)
    Patients receive temozolomide PO QD on days 1-5. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 1 year in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity and can be continued at investigators discretion at end of treatment. Patients also receive SurVaxM with montanide ISA-51 SC and sargramostim SC once every 2 weeks for 4 doses. Patients with clinical benefit after 4 doses of SurVaxM and remain free of tumor progression and unacceptable toxicity may receive 3 additional doses on weeks 24, 36, and 48. Additionally, patients undergo blood sample collection, CT scans or MRI scans throughout study.

Primary Outcome Measure

Progression free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: At 6 months ]
