Personalized Dendritic Cell Vaccine Pilot for High Risk TNBC After Neoadjuvant Therapy
Sponsor: H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute
Summary
This is a pilot protocol to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and immunogenicity of a personalized breast cancer vaccine based utilizing whole exome sequencing data of a patient's residual breast tumor following neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Interventions
Leukapheresis
Removal of white blood cells (leukocytes) from the blood. The dendritic cells are harvested from the white blood cells that are collected and trained to recognize the specific abnormal proteins found in the tumor sample. One needle is inserted in each arm. An apheresis machine removes blood from the vein in one arm, separates and retains the leukocytes from the blood, and then returns the rest of the blood to the other arm.
Dendritic Cell (DC) Vaccine
The vaccine will be given intranodally (inguinal or axillary) under ultrasound guidance using a dose of 40-50 million cells three times spaced 2 weeks apart for the initial priming sequence. 3 doses of the priming vaccines are given once every 2 weeks. 2 booster shots (if available) will be given 6 months and 12 months following completion of initial priming vaccines.
