Official Title: Phase 2 Study of Proteinase 3 PR1 Peptide Mixed With Montanide ISA 51 VG Adjuvant and Administered With GM-CSF in Low Risk and Intermediate-1 MDS
Brief Summary:
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. Colony-stimulating factors, such as GM-CSF, increase the number of white blood cells and platelets found in bone marrow or peripheral blood. Giving vaccine therapy together with GM-CSF may kill more cancer cells.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving vaccine therapy together with GM-CSF works in treating patients with low-risk or intermediate-risk myelodysplastic syndrome.
