A Phase I Safety Study of a Cancer Vaccine to Treat HLA-A2 Positive Advanced Stage Ovarian, Breast and Prostate Cancer

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with stage III or IV ovarian cancer who have completed a course of platinin-based cytotoxic therapy after debulking surgery with evidence of a complete or partial response by radiological imaging. Patients with metastatic ovarian cancer who have stable disease for greater than 3 months after completion of first-line therapy. * Patients with stage IV breast cancer who have received at least 1 course of hormonal or cytotoxic therapy for metastatic cancer. Patients must be off cytotoxic therapy with stable disease or better for 3 months or greater duration. Patients may have stable disease and still be on hormonal therapy. * Patients with prostate cancer who have failed at least 1 course of an accepted hormonal therapy. Specifically prostate cancer patients must have castrate testosterone levels (\< 50 ng/dl) and 2 PSA values higher than the previously documented baseline at least 3 weeks apart or evidence of increases in measurable disease. These patients may have received previous courses of cytotoxic chemotherapy although chemotherapy naïve patients who are deemed not good candidates or who have refused cytotoxic therapy will be eligible. These patients may remain on anti-androgen therapy during the trial. Patients with evidence of progressive bone or other metastases are acceptable. * At least 8 weeks since previous courses of an investigational biologic therapy (i.e. cancer vaccine) including active or passive immunotherapy. * At least 30 day…
