Clinical Trial Assessing the Safety and Immunologic Correlates of Heterologous Prime-Boost With pNGVL4a-Sig/E7(Detox)/HSP70 and TA-HPV in Healthy Donors Followed by Peripheral Blood Collection
Sponsor: Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins
Summary
This healthy related donor clinical trial is linked to a recipient clinical trial protocol for therapeutic purposes. In this healthy donor protocol, haploidentical relatives of a patient with recurrent or metastatic human papilloma virus (R/M HPV) 16-associated malignancy will be invited to be vaccinated with a therapeutic HPV vaccine series (PVX1) to generate HPV-specific white blood cells. In the linked recipient phase 1 clinical trial protocol, patient with incurable, locally recurrent or metastatic HPV 16-associated head and neck cancer will be randomized to one of two arms: Arm A: non-myeloablative (NMA) allogeneic bone marrow transplant (alloBMT) OR Arm B: CD8-depleted donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) on Day 0 of a dose escalation scheme These two clinical trials are separated so that the healthy donor trial deals exclusively with issues of safety and immunological efficacy of the HPV vaccine series and this companion recipient trial examines the safety, feasibility and clinically efficacy of the allogeneic bone marrow graft and CD8-depleted DLI. The central hypothesis of the clinical trial is that patients with R/M HPV-associated malignancies can be safely and effectively treated by allogeneic bone marrow transplantation and/or CD8-depleted DLI from a healthy related donor that has been vaccinated against HPV16 E6 and E7 proteins.

Interventions
pNGVL4a-Sig/E7(detox)/HSP70 plasmid DNA; TA-HPV vaccinia virus
About 1 month before donating blood, donors are required to come to outpatient clinic once a week to receive the following vaccine series: Week 1: PVX1 (1 of 3): intramuscular injection (IM) of 3mg DNA prime with pNGVL4a-Sig/E7(detox)/HSP70 vaccine Week 2: PVX1 (2 of 3): IM 3mg DNA prime with pNGVL4a-Sig/E7(detox)/HSP70 vaccine Week 3: PVX1 (3 of 3): IM TA-HPV vaccinia boost Pause for 2 weeks Peripheral blood collection and possible bone marrow harvest depending on randomization
