Brief summary
BVAC-B is immunotherapeutic vaccine using B-Cell and Monocytes as antigen presenting cell. This study is Open-label, Accelerated titration, Multiple dosing study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immune response and pre-efficacy of BVAC-B in patients with progressive or recurrent HER2/neu positive gastric cancer after failure to standard care. 9-27 patients will be enrolled.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluate Maximum tolerated dose(MTD) for phase 2 trial | End of Dose-escalation stage(7 month from study start, Estimated) | Find Serious adverse drug reaction(Grade 3) |
| Incidence of Serious Adverse Events assessed with CTCAE v4.03 | 14th week from first injection | Evaluate safety and tolerability |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| NKT/NK cell assay | Screening visit, every 24hr after injection(up to 12th week) | Measure NKT/NK cell activity |
| CD4/CD8 assay | Screening visit, every 2 weeks after 1st injection(up to 16th week) | Measure CD4/CD8 T cell activity |
| Serum cytokine | Screening visit, Visit 2 (0 week) , visit 4 (4 week) ,visit 5 (6 week), visit 6 (8 week), visit 8(12 week), Termination visit(16 week) | Measure Interferon(IFN)-r, Interleukin(IL)-4 |
