Brief summary

The purpose of this trial is to assess the safety profile of Cvac for epithelial ovarian cancer patients who were enrolled in the Cvac clinical trial CAN-003 and are no longer eligible for study participation due to disease progression.

Interventions

BIOLOGICALMUC1 Dendritic Cell Vaccine (Cvac)

The recommended dosing regimen for CAN-003X was every 4 weeks for the first 3 doses and then every 12 weeks for 3 doses, for a total of 6 doses over 44 weeks (Regimen A, applicable to CAN-003 observational Standard of Care patients and CAN-003 Cvac patients that have progressed prior to the fourth dose of Cvac). Participants who received more than 3 doses of Cvac in CAN-003 continued with the CAN-003 dosing schedule (Regimen B; Cvac every 4 weeks for a total of 7 doses and then every 8 weeks for 3 doses, for a total of 10 doses over approximately 48 weeks).

Inclusion criteria

* Female patients ≥ 18 years old with histologically confirmed Stage III or IV epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer who were enrolled in CAN-003 * Able and willing to undergo mononuclear cell (MNC) collection (if required for patients who do not have available Cvac doses) * Were enrolled in CAN-003 and met protocol criteria for progressive disease * Wish to remain in the study and, in the investigator's judgment, the potential benefit of Cvac treatment outweighs the risk * Must be non-pregnant and, if of childbearing potential, must use adequate birth control (hormonal or barrier method of birth control or abstinence) for the duration of the study and for 3 months after study completion * Able to provide written informed consent * White blood cell count (WBC) ≥ 3.0 K/μL, absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 K/μL, hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL, and platelets ≥100,000/mm\^3

Exclusion criteria

* Pregnant or breastfeeding * Other medical conditions which preclude study participation, in the opinion of the investigator * Receiving treatment with any other investigational product

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AE) and Serious Adverse Events (SAE)First dose of study vaccine to 30 days past last dose (Approximately 1 Year)An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a study drug, whether or not considered related to the drug. A SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of an existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability or incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect or is a medically important event.
