Clinical Study of an Dendritic and Glioma Cells Fusion Vaccine With IL-12 for Treatment-naïve GBM Patients.
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
A multi-center, open-label, single-arm, phase I/II clinical study is designed to test the safety and immunogenicity of an investigational Dendritic and Glioma Cells Fusion vaccine given with IL-12 for treatment-naïve patients after resection of glioblastoma.

Phase 1/Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
This clinical trail includes two phases: basic treatment phase and immunotherapy phase. In basic treatment phase, patients will receive concomitant radiation and TMZ-chemotherapy. In immunotherapy phase, besides maintenance chemotherapy with TMZ, Fusion cells will be administered with IL-12 to enhance the immunity of patients.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Safety Evaluation Group Basic treatment phase: The patients have surgery followed by concomitant radiation (2 Gy/day x 30 days) and TMZ-chemotherapy (75 mg/m2/ day x 42 days). Immunotherapy phase: Maintenance chemotherapy with TMZ will be administered at 150-200 mg/m2/day for 5 days in each 28-day cycle. Fusion cells will be suspended in 0.5 mL normal saline and then injected intradermally close to a cervical lymph node. IL-12 will be injected subcutaneously at the same side at dose of 6ug twice for interval of one hour. |
Biological: Dendritic Cell/Tumor Fusion Vaccine
Vaccine is derived from the participants dendritic cells and tumor cells.
Other Names:
Drug: Interleukin-12
Given subcutaneously at dose of 6ug twice for interval of one hour.
Other Names:
Drug: Temozolomide
Following concomitant radiation (2 Gy/day x 30 days) and TMZ-chemotherapy (75 mg/m2/ day x 42 days) , maintenance chemotherapy with TMZ will be administered at 150-200 mg/m2/day for 5 days in each 28-day cycle.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Adverse Events (AE) / Serious Adverse Events (SAE) [2-3 years]
AE/SAE associated with the intervention will be captured throughout the treatment portion of the study. All adverse events will be then compiled and these patients will be recorded.
- Progression free survival (PFS) at 6 months [From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 6 months]
Assessed from this study start date to the date of the first observation of clinical or radiographic disease progression or death due to any cause. Patients will be censored at the time they are last known to be alive and progression free (if withdrawn or lost to follow-up).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Immunological Assays [2-3 years]
Assays including Flow Cytometry and Elispot will be employed to determine if cellular and humoral immunity were induced by serial vaccination with DC/Tumor Fusion Cells and IL-12.
- Overall survival (OS) time [From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 120 months]
Assessed from this study start date to date of death of any cause. Patients will be censored at the time that they are last known to be alive (if withdrawn or lost to follow-up).
