Trial Identification

Brief Title: Safety Study of a Dendritic Cell-based Cancer Vaccine in Melanoma

Official Title: Dose-escalation Study to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of Sub-cutaneous Injections of a Peptide-loaded Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Line (GeniusVac-Mel4) in Patients With Melanoma

Study ID: NCT01863108

Interventions

GeniusVac-Mel4

Study Description

Brief Summary: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple sub-cutaneous injections of GeniusVac-Mel4, a dendritic cell-based cancer vaccine, in patients with melanoma. The secondary objectives are to determine immune response and clinical efficacy of such injections in patients with melanoma.

Detailed Description: GeniusVac-Mel4 is a drug product composed of an irradiated allogeneic plasmacytoid dendritic cell (PDC) line loaded with 4 melanoma peptides derived from Melan-A, gp100, Tyrosinase or Mage-A3. This cell line is HLA-A\*02:01, a phenotype found in 40% of the European population. This approach exploits the PDC line high capacity of boosting anti-tumor cytotoxic response against melanoma antigens in HLA-A\*02:01 melanoma patients. In the preclinical studies, a strong proof of concept was brought. Indeed, the GeniusVac-Mel4 capacity to induce high number of cytotoxic antitumor T-cells was shown in melanoma model, both in vivo in humanized mice and ex vivo with patients' PBMC (peripheral blood mononuclear cells) (Aspord et al 2010 and 2012). It is planned to include patients in three dose-escalating groups (4, 20, 60 millions of GeniusVac-Mel4 cells). At least, 3 patients will be recruited in each dose group of the trial.
