Purpose:

The purpose for the application of named patient use is to provide patients with advanced colorectal cancer or other forms of cancer(s) with the presence of MAGE antigen expression an alternative treatment for the vaccination with MelCancerVac, where there is no further indication for surgery or treatment with chemotherapy.

Treated Patients will be monitored and research blood will be taken at specific time points to evaluate the efficacy and specific immunologic responses of vaccination with MelCancerVac. Patient’s data collected from this named patient use program will contribute to our previous Phase II a data as well as the upcoming Phase II b colorectal clinical study.

Specifications:

Patients will be fully monitored according to the previous phase II a study protocol where PBMCs will be isolated from research blood for subsequent analysis to determine the extent of immune response against the tumour lysate antigens by CTL and ELISPOT assay.

Similarly, patients will be recruited on named patient basis according to the patient inclusion and exclusion criteria stated in the phase II a study protocol. However, there may be some exceptional cases where treatment will be made based on Doctor’s discretion on the patient’s quality of life.

Here below, is a reference for the protocols used for the named patient program:

1) Manufacturing Procedure for MelCancerVac (MCV) Using Peripheral Blood (SOP no: SG 20082) (Dandrit SOP: XX )

2) Patient Batch Record for Manufacturing of MelCancerVac (MCV) Using Peripheral Blood (SOP no: MCV SG 20082) (Dandrit SOP: XX )

Target no of patients : 10 patients

First patient for venesection: September 2008

Last patient for venesection : January 2009

No. of new patient venesections per week : 1 patient every biweekly

No. of new patient venesections per month: 2

rv This is subject to change depending on the accomodation of re-venesections to be done on recruited patients. (From previous studies there should be “‘ 2.5 venesections per patient to obtain 10x vaccines)

Based on the assumption that there would be rv 2.5 venesections per patient, we will only be able to accomodate 2 ‘first’ venesections per month assuming that there would be revenesections carried out throughout the month as well.

Budget Assumptions -

“‘	The vaccine production costs have included contingencies in the laboratory consumables needed assuming that there are 2.5 venesections per patient to produce 10 vaccines.
	The no. of cytokines, media, solutions are calculated as 10 patients per batch needed.
	The manpower costs have included three of Dandrit SG staff for a period of six months assuming 2 new patients per mth (completion of 10 patients in 5 months) with a contingency of 1 mth.
