Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary purpose of this phase II clinical trial is to determine the safety and effect on survival of patients autologous dendritic cells pulsed with autologous tumor lysate as a treatment for low-grade glioma patients. Other goals of this study are to determine if the vaccine can cause an immune response against patients' cancer cells and slow the growth of their brain tumors

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the 5-year progression-free survival (PFS), using intradermal injections of autologous dendritic cells harvested from peripheral blood precursors and pulsed (co-cultured) with tumor lysate derived from surgical tissues in patients with low-grade gliomas.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To monitor overall survival (OS), and cellular immune responses in brain tumor patients injected with tumor lysate-pulsed dendritic cells.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive tumor lysate-pulsed autologous dendritic cell vaccine intradermally (ID) on days 0, 14, and 28.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent glioma of World Health Organization (WHO) grade II (astrocytoma, oligodendroglioma, and/or oligoastrocytoma) will be eligible for this protocol
* Patients must have had surgical resection at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), for which a separate informed consent was signed for the collection of their tumor prior to surgery
* After surgery, a pathological diagnosis of low-grade glioma (WHO grade II) will need to be established
* Patients must be able to read and understand the informed consent document; patients must sign the informed consent indicating that they are aware of the investigational nature of this study.
* Patients must have a Karnofsky performance status (KPS) rating of \>= 60 prior to initiating treatment; patients may be enrolled at a KPS of \< 60 if it is felt that the patient will have adequate opportunity to recover to a KPS of \>= 60 by the initiation of treatment
* Hemoglobin \>= 9 gm%
* Absolute granulocyte count \>= 1,500
* Platelet count \>= 100,000/microliter (uL)
* Serum glutamic pyruvate transaminase (SGPT), serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) =\< 2.5 times institutional normals
* Bilirubin =\< 1.5mg%
* Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) or creatinine =\< 1.5 times institutional normals

Exclusion Criteria

* Subjects with an active infection
* Inability to obtain informed consent because of psychiatric or complicating medical problems
* Unstable or severe intercurrent medical or psychiatric conditions as determined by the Investigator
* Females of child-bearing potential who are pregnant or lactating or who are not using approved contraception
* History of immunodeficiency (e.g., human immunodeficiency virus \[HIV\]) or autoimmune disease (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, vasculitis, polymyositis-dermatomyositis, scleroderma, multiple sclerosis, or juvenile-onset insulin-dependent diabetes) that may be exacerbated by immunotherapy
* Subjects with organ allografts
* Inability or unwillingness to return for required visits and follow-up exams
* Subjects who have an uncontrolled systemic malignancy that is not in remission
