A Pilot Study of Consolidative Immunotherapy in Patients with High-Risk Pediatric Sarcomas

Abstract: Purpose: Patients with metastatic or recurrent Ewing's sarcoma family of tumors and alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma have <25% 5-year survival in most studies. This study administered a novel immunotherapy regimen aimed at consolidating remission in these patients. Experimental Design: Fifty-two patients with translocation positive, recurrent, or metastatic Ewing's sarcoma family of tumors or alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma underwent prechemotherapy cell harvest via apheresis for potential receipt of immunotherapy.

“…They can be due to the sensitivity/speciWcity of the techniques used (microarray, RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry), to diVerent antibodies or primer-pairs for the same antigen, and to diVerently chosen cut-oV points. 82], WT-1 (ongoing clinical trial, http://www.clinicaltrials.gov) and MAGE-A1 (Jacobs et al, manuscript in preparation). Choosing the best antigen in a speciWc immunotherapy trial depends on the individual needs for that study such as the immunogenicity of the antigen, the level of antigen expression by the tumors, the tumor-speciWcity of the antigen, the availability of clinical grade antigenic products, and the HLA-type of the included patients.…”

“…Peptide-pulsed DCs have shown promise in solid tumor sarcomas including synovial sarcoma and are important for antigen presentation to T cells [35,36]. Ipilimumab, a CTLA-4 checkpoint inhibitor that promotes continued T-cell activation, showed no response in a small Phase II study of synovial sarcoma [37].…”
