  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with previously treated or newly diagnosed follicular center cell grade I or grade II lymphoma, small lymphocytic lymphoma, MALT lymphoma, monocytoid B-cell lymphoma, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, or marginal zone lymphoma with bidimensionally measurable disease;
  • Part of the resected specimen must undergo routine pathologic examination to confirm the diagnosis of lymphoma. The remaining tissue must be used for the preparation of autologous HSPPC-96;

  • A minimum of 2 grams of non-necrotic, resectable malignant lymphoma for HSPPC-96 preparation;
  • Bidimensionally measurable disease in at least one location other than the resected lymphoid tissue;
  • Life expectancy of at least 16 weeks;
Show all 18Show fewer
  • Zubrod performance status of less then or equal to 2;
  • Adequate bone marrow function;
  • Adequate hepatic function;
  • Adequate renal function;
  • Signed written informed consent;
  • Patients of child-bearing potential must practice contraception, which is adequate in the opinion of the Principal Investigator;
  • Patients of child-bearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test prior to entry into the study and must not be lactating;
  • Patients must be willing to be followed at the M. D. Anderson Cancer Center during the course of treatment and follow-up;
  • Electrocardiogram if none performed in the prior six months;
  • Patients must have no chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, or experimental anti-cancer therapy within six weeks prior to starting autologous HSPPC-96 administration;
  • Patients must have fully recovered from prior anti-cancer therapy;
  • Tumor measurements and staging no more than 4 weeks prior to receiving the first dose of autologous HSPPC-96.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with active or prior history of central nervous system lymphoma;
  • Patients with serious intercurrent medical illnesses, requiring hospitalization;
  • Patients with a history of primary or secondary immunodeficiency (other than related to the malignant lymphoma because treatment is dependent on functional immune system) or patients taking immunosuppressive drugs such as systemic corticosteroids;
  • Women who are pregnant or lactating;
  • Patients participating in another clinical trial;
  • Patients receiving growth factors of any kind, including G-CSF, GM-CSF, or Epogen;

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of Active Specific Immunotherapy in Patients With Indolent Lymphoma Using Autologous Lymphoma-Derived Heat Shock Protein-Peptide Complex (HSPPC-96)

Primary Objectives:

  • To document the efficacy of treatment with autologous lymphoma-derived HSPPC-96 of selected patients with indolent lymphoma. The efficacy endpoints are:
  • the rate of complete and partial responses
  • the time to progression.
Read more

Secondary Objectives:

  • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of autologous tumor-derived heat-shock protein peptide complex (HSPPC-96) administered intradermally once weekly for four consecutive weeks, followed by HSPPC-96 administered once every two weeks.
  • To evaluate the feasibility of autologous HSPPC-96 preparation from lymphoma specimens.
  • To assess approximately the composition of the tissue source of the autologous HSPPC-96 for each patient.
  • To study the effect of autologous lymphoma-derived HSPPC-96 vaccine therapy on the expression of Fas ligand and TRAIL death proteins in peripheral blood lymphocytes of patients with indolent lymphoma.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing autologous human tumor-derived HSPPC-96 in people with Lymphoma, Follicular and Lymphoma, Small Lymphocytic, run by Agenus Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 18 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Sep 2023.
