Conditions

Recurrent Prostate Cancer

Brief summary

The study evaluates the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response in HLA-A\*02 positive patients with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy treated with a prostate-specific peptide vaccine in combination with different immune-adjuvants.

Detailed description

Patients with a biochemical recurrence after initial therapy can be included.
