Study Details

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of a personalized vaccine (tumor membrane vesicle or TMV vaccine) by itself and in combination with checkpoint inhibitor (pembrolizumab or ipilimumab) in treating patients with triple negative breast cancer. This vaccine is made by taking a piece of patient's triple negative breast cancer to design a vaccine to stimulate the immune system's memory. Patients are treated with the personalized vaccine immunotherapy with or without monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab and ipilimumab. This approach may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving personalized TMV vaccine with pembrolizumab or ipilimumab may help the immune system attack cancer better and reduce the risk of this breast cancer coming back or growing.

Arms

  • Experimental: Phase Ia (TMV vaccine)
    Patients receive TMV vaccine ID at weeks 1, 3, and 5 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
  • Experimental: Phase Ib Arm A ( TMV vaccine, pembrolizumab)
    Patients receive TMV vaccine ID at weeks 1, 3, and 5 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive pembrolizumab IV on day 1. Treatment with pembrolizumab repeats every 21 days for 6-9 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
  • Experimental: Phase Ib Arm B ( TMV vaccine, ipilimumab)
    Patients receive TMV vaccine ID at weeks 1, 3, and 5 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive ipilimumab IV on day 1. Treatment with ipilimumab repeats every 21 days for 4 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
