Principal Investigator Adekunle Odunsi, MD PhD
Study Number 199911
Phase1
Summary

The purpose of this research is to study a vaccine treatment called recombinant canarypox-NY-ESO-1/TRICOM [also called ALVAC(2)-NY-ESO(M)/TRICOM].  The study is limited to patients with epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal carcinoma whose tumors express certain proteins (antigens) called NY-ESO-1 or LAGE-1.  A vaccine is a medicine that teaches the immune system in the body to destroy harmful infections or cancer cells that do not belong in the normal tissues.
