Official Title ICMJE | Immunotherapy for Unresectable Pancreas Cancer: A Phase I Study of Intratumoral Recombinant Fowlpox PANVAC (PANVAC-F) Plus Subcutaneous Recombinant Vaccinia PANVAC (PANVAC-V), PANVAC-F and Recombinant Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (rH-GMCSF) | ||||||||
Brief Summary | RATIONALE: Vaccines made from a gene-modified virus may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Colony-stimulating factors, such as GM-CSF, may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood. Injecting the vaccine directly into the tumor and giving it together with GM-CSF may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vaccine therapy when given together with GM-CSF in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. |

Detailed Description | OBJECTIVES: Primary
Secondary
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of intratumoral recombinant fowlpox PANVAC vaccine (PANVAC-F; falimarev). Patients receive an intratumoral injection of PANVAC-F vaccine using endoscopic ultrasound guidance. Patients also receive recombinant vaccinia PANVAC vaccine (PANVAC-V; inalimarev) subcutaneously (SC) on day 1 and sargramostim (GM-CSF) SC on days 1-4. Patients then receive PANVAC-F vaccine SC on days 15 and 29 and GM-CSF SC on days 15-18 and 29-32 in the absence of unacceptable toxicity. Beginning on day 43, patients with stable or improving pancreatic cancer receive PANVAC-F vaccine SC and GM-CSF SC (given on the day of and for 3 days after each PANVAC-F vaccination) monthly in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning on day 71, patients with no irreversible or dose limiting toxicity , receive PANVAC-F vaccine SC (given on the day of and for 3 days after each PANVAC-F vaccination) monthly in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients will undergo biopsy periodically for correlative studies. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months. |
