Trial Information

SGN-00101 (HspE7) Immunotherapy Of CIN III


OBJECTIVES:

Primary

- Determine the rate of regression at 4-7 months in patients with grade III cervical
intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN III) treated with SGN-00101 immunotherapy.

- Compare the rate of regression at 4-7 months with expected outcome in patients
immunized with this vaccine.

- Determine the toxic effects and recovery from possible toxic effects of this vaccine in
these patients.

Secondary

- Determine induction of cell-mediated immune responses against human papillomavirus
(HPV) E7 peptides before and after treatment in patients immunized with this vaccine

- Correlate regression of disease with enhanced immunologic responses in patients
immunized with this vaccine.

- Correlate seropositivity of HPV-16 virus-like particles (VLP16) with vaccine-induced
regression of CIN III in patients immunized with this vaccine.

- Determine the efficacy of this vaccine in patients whose CIN III is associated with
HPV-16 infection vs other HPV types.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 treatment groups.

All patients receive SGN-00101 subcutaneously once monthly on months 1-3 (for a total of 3
vaccinations) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

- Group 1: Four months after the first vaccination, patients undergo therapeutic and
diagnostic loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) or core biopsy.

- Group 2: Six months after the first vaccination, patients undergo therapeutic and
diagnostic LEEP or core biopsy.

Patients in group 1 are followed at 12 months and patients in group 2 are followed at 14
months after the first vaccination.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 66 patients (36 for group 1 and 30 for group 2) will be
accrued for this study.
