| NCT00000105 ↗ | Vaccination With Tetanus and KLH to Assess Immune Responses. | Terminated | Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota | 2002-07-01 | The purpose of this study is to learn how the immune system works in response to vaccines. We will give the vaccines to subjects who have cancer but have not had treatment, and to patients who have had chemotherapy or stem cell transplant. Some patients will get vaccines while they are on treatments which boost the immune system (like the immune stimulating drug interleukin-2 or IL-2). Although we have safely treated many patients with immune boosting drugs, we do not yet know if they improve the body's immune system to respond better to a vaccine. Some healthy volunteers will also be given the vaccines in order to serve as control subjects to get a good measure of the normal immune response. We will compare the patients and the healthy volunteers to study how their immune systems respond to the vaccines. There are several different types of white cells in the blood. We are interested in immune cells in the blood called T-cells. These T-cells detect foreign substances in the body (like viruses and cancer cells). We are trying to learn more about how the body fights these foreign substances. Our goal is to develop cancer vaccines which would teach T-cells to detect and kill cancer cells better. We know that in healthy people the immune system effectively protects against recurrent virus infection. For example, that is why people only get "mono" (mononucleosis) once under normal circumstances. When the body is infected with the "mono" virus, the immune system remembers and prevents further infection. We are trying to use the immune system to prevent cancer relapse. To test this, we will give two vaccines which have been used to measure these immune responses. Blood samples will be studied from cancer patients and will be compared to similar samples from normal subjects. | |
| NCT00000755 ↗ | A Phase I/II Trial of Vaccine Therapy of HIV-1 Infected Individuals With 50-500 CD4 Cells/mm3 | Completed | Genentech, Inc. | Phase 1 | 1969-12-31 | To examine the response of HIV-1 infected patients to vaccination with gp120/HIV-1MN antigen. To determine the effect of antiretroviral therapy on vaccine responsiveness. Fifty percent of HIV-1 infected individuals remain symptom free for 8-12 years. It has been hypothesized that HIV-specific immune responses are responsible for the period of relative quiescence of viral replication. Recent studies suggest that these immune functions can be augmented by vaccination with HIV-derived antigens. |
| NCT00000755 ↗ | A Phase I/II Trial of Vaccine Therapy of HIV-1 Infected Individuals With 50-500 CD4 Cells/mm3 | Completed | Glaxo Wellcome | Phase 1 | 1969-12-31 | To examine the response of HIV-1 infected patients to vaccination with gp120/HIV-1MN antigen. To determine the effect of antiretroviral therapy on vaccine responsiveness. Fifty percent of HIV-1 infected individuals remain symptom free for 8-12 years. It has been hypothesized that HIV-specific immune responses are responsible for the period of relative quiescence of viral replication. Recent studies suggest that these immune functions can be augmented by vaccination with HIV-derived antigens. |
| NCT00000755 ↗ | A Phase I/II Trial of Vaccine Therapy of HIV-1 Infected Individuals With 50-500 CD4 Cells/mm3 | Completed | National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) | Phase 1 | 1969-12-31 | To examine the response of HIV-1 infected patients to vaccination with gp120/HIV-1MN antigen. To determine the effect of antiretroviral therapy on vaccine responsiveness. Fifty percent of HIV-1 infected individuals remain symptom free for 8-12 years. It has been hypothesized that HIV-specific immune responses are responsible for the period of relative quiescence of viral replication.

| NCT00000820 ↗ | A Phase II Study of Low-Dose Interleukin-2 by Subcutaneous Injection in Combination With Antiretroviral Therapy Versus Antiretroviral Therapy Alone in Patients With HIV-1 Infection and at Least 3 Months Stable Antiretroviral Therapy | Completed | National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) | Phase 2 | 1969-12-31 | PRIMARY: To examine the effect of aldesleukin ( IL-2 ) on viral activity in the blood. To determine the safety of low-dose IL-2 in combination with antiretroviral therapy versus antiretroviral therapy alone. SECONDARY: To examine delayed type hypersensitivity responses to skin test antigens and antibody responses to protein and polysaccharide vaccines. The profound immune impairment that results from HIV-1 infection is due, at least in part, to the loss of CD4+ T cells and the cytokines these cells secrete, especially IL-2 and interferon-gamma. Antiretroviral agents do not directly address the problem of immune impairment. Replacement of IL-2 at nontoxic doses may prevent or delay clinical immunosuppression and its attendant opportunistic infections. Also, since patients with HIV-1 infection respond suboptimally to routine protein and polysaccharide immunizations, IL-2 may provide an adjuvant effect on vaccine responses. |
| NCT00000822 ↗ | A Phase I/II Double-Blind Controlled Trial to Determine the Safety and Immunogenicity of HIV-1 MN rgp160 Immuno AG Vaccine Therapy in HIV-Infected Individuals With Greater Than or Equal to 500/mm3 CD4+ T Cells and 200-400/mm3 CD4+ T Cells | Completed | Bristol-Myers Squibb | Phase 1 | 1969-12-31 | To evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of HIV-1 MN rgp160 (Immuno-AG) in HIV-infected patients. To evaluate the immunogenicity of HIV-1 MN rgp160 immunogen by lymphocyte proliferation, specific antibody responses, and DTH reaction. To describe the durability of the immunogen in patients who respond to the first 7 injections when they are boosted every 8 weeks for an additional 6-12 months [AS PER AMENDMENT 11/12/96: stratum 1 patients only]. To describe the ability of the immunogen to induce a response after an additional 6-12 months of injections among patients who did not respond to the first 7 injections [AS PER AMENDMENT 11/12/96: stratum 1 patients only]. HIV-specific cellular immune responses appear to play an important role in HIV disease progression since both T helper and cytotoxic function against HIV decrease with disease progression. |
