rVV-740CTA: Cancer/Testis Antigen Immunotherapy Phase I Study With 740-CTA Vaccinia Virus
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Monocentric open-label phase I/II trial aiming at evaluating, in adjuvant setting, safety (primary outcome), immunological and clinical efficacy (secondary outcomes) of a non replicating recombinant vaccinia virus expressing cancer/testis antigen (CTA) derived epitopes and CD80 and CD40 ligand (CD40L, CD154) costimulatory molecules in patients with CTA expressing tumors.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- number of adverse Events [2 years]
Safety measured by assessment of number of adverse events that have occured
- number of serious adverse Events [2 years]
Safety measured by assessment of number of serious adverse Events that have occured
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Evolution of Immune reactivity to the CTA [18 months]
Vaccine epitopes specific CD8+ T-cell responses will be evaluated from peripheral blood samples prior, during and after treatment.
- Disease free survival [2 years]
number of patients with no relapse of disease at timepoint 2 years
- Overall survival [2 years]
number of patients still living at timepoint 2 years
