RATIONALE: Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of vaccine therapy in treating patients who have metastatic or recurrent cancer.

Breast Cancer Gastric Cancer Lung Cancer Ovarian Cancer Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific |
Drug: MVF-HER-2(628-647)-CRL 1005 vaccine |
Phase I |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Treatment |
Official Title: | Phase IB Trial of Active Specific Immunotherapy With MVF-HER-2(628-647) and CRL1005 Copolymer Adjuvant in Patients With Metastatic Cancer |
Study Start Date: | March 2000 |
OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the optimum biologic dose of MVF-HER-2(628-647)-CRL 1005 vaccine that will induce anti-HER-2 antibody in patients with metastatic or recurrent cancer. II. Characterize the nature and severity of toxicity of this drug in these patients. III. Document any clinical responses to this drug in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study. Patients receive MVF-HER-2(628-647)-CRL 1005 vaccine intramuscularly on days 1 and 29. Cohorts of 5 patients receive escalating doses of MVF-HER-2(627-647)-CRL 1005 vaccine until at least 2 of 5 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. Patients are followed on days 43 and 57 and every 2 months for at least 1 year.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 5-25 patients will be accrued for this study.
