Summary:
This phase II trial compares the safety and effect of temozolomide combined with survivin
long peptide vaccine (SurVaxM) to temozolomide alone in patients with neuroendocrine
tumors (NET) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places
in the body (metastatic) and is growing, spreading or getting worse (progressing).
Temozolomide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging
the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid and may kill tumor cells and slow down or stop tumor
growth. Survivin, a protein, is expressed in 50% of patients that have neuroendocrine
tumors and, is associated with poor outcomes. SVN53-67/M57-KLH peptide vaccine (SurVaxM)
is a vaccine that has been shown to produce an immune system response against cancer
cells that express a survivin and may block the growth of new tumor cells. Giving
temozolomide with SurVaxM may kill more tumor cells in patients with progressing
metastatic neuroendocrine tumors.
Detailed description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the clinical efficacy (progression free survival [PFS]) of combining
temozolomide and SVN53-67/M57-KLH peptide vaccine (SurVaxM) in patients with progressing
NETs. (Part 1: Phase IIa Study) II. To evaluate the safety and toxicity of the study drug
combination (temozolomide + SurVaxM) in patients with progressing NETs. (Part 1: Phase
IIa Study) III. To evaluate the clinical efficacy (PFS) between patients treated with
temozolomide alone compared to patients treated with the combination of SurVaxM +
temozolomide. (Part 2: Phase IIb Study)
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess clinical benefit (including complete response, partial response and stable
disease as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST] version
[v]1.1) at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months from study entry. (Part 1: Phase
IIa Study) II. To assess anti-survivin IgG titer response. (Part 1: Phase IIa Study) III.
Compare clinical benefit. (Part 2: Phase IIb Study) IV. Assess anti-survivin IgG titer
response. (Part 2: Phase IIb Study) V. Assess safety. (Part 2: Phase IIb Study)
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To explore immune markers associated with clinical responses to SurVaxM in peripheral
blood of NETs patients. (Part 2: Phase IIb Study) II. To assess the methylguanine
methyltransferase (MGMT) status of all patients and correlate with response. (Part 2:
Phase IIb Study) III. To assess the tumor growth rate (TGR) on radiographic imaging prior
to study enrollment and while on study. (Part 2: Phase IIb Study)
OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 parts.
PART 1: Patients receive temozolomide orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-5. Treatment
repeats every 28 days for up to 1 year in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity and can be continued at investigators discretion at end of
treatment. Patients also receive SurVaxM with incomplete Freund's adjuvant (montanide
ISA-51) subcutaneously (SC) and sargramostim SC once every 2 weeks for 4 doses. Patients
with clinical benefit after 4 doses of SurVaxM and remain free of tumor progression and
unacceptable toxicity may receive 3 additional doses on weeks 24, 36, and 48.
Additionally, patients undergo blood sample collection, computed tomography (CT) scans or
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans throughout study.
PART 2: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I: Patients receive temozolomide PO QD on days 1-5. Treatment repeats every 28 days
until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Additionally, patients undergo blood
sample collection, CT scans or MRI scans throughout study.
ARM II: Patients receive temozolomide PO QD on days 1-5. Treatment repeats every 28 days
until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity and can be continued at investigators
discretion at end of treatment. Patients also receive SurVaxM with montanide ISA-51 SC
and sargramostim SC once every 2 weeks for 4 doses. Patients with clinical benefit after
4 doses of SurVaxM and remain free of tumor progression and unacceptable toxicity may
receive 3 additional doses on weeks 24, 36, and 48. Additionally, patients undergo blood
sample collection, CT scans or MRI scans throughout study.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days.

octreotide, everolimus, sunitinib, or lutetium Lu 177 dotatate)
- Patients who have been on somatostatin analogues (SSA) may continue to take SSA
while on study treatment

clinical immunohistochemistry prior to study enrollment
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 10^9/L (obtained within 14 days prior to
enrollment)
- Platelets ≥ 100 x 10^9/L (obtained within 14 days prior to enrollment)
- Hemoglobin (Hgb) > 9g/dL (obtained within 14 days prior to enrollment)
- Plasma total bilirubin: ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) (obtained within 14 days
prior to enrollment)

heparin) must meet the following criteria:
- No active bleeding or pathological condition that carries a high risk of
bleeding (e.g., tumor involving major vessels or known varices, which carries a
significant risk of bleeding in investigator's opinion)
- Participants of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraceptive

study entry. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or
her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician
