The purpose of this study is to understand how the body's immune cells respond to a new type of vaccine (neoantigen vaccine) designed to help the immune system recognize and fight cancer. To do this, the study team will collect a research specimen from participants to study their immune cells' reactions to the neoantigen vaccine. This research will help researchers learn more about how these vaccines might work to protect or treat against cancer.

Who can participate

This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.

Inclusion criteria

  • Histologically confirmed current or previous solid malignancy or healthy individuals

  • Hemoglobin ≥10.0 g/dl
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1500/mm\^3
  • Platelet count ≥100,000/mm\^3

Exclusion criteria

  • Any of the following prior therapies:
  • IV antibiotic ≤2 weeks prior to apheresis
  • Major Surgery ≤4 weeks prior to registration

  • Known history of active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the ≤14 days (i.e., with the use of disease-modifying agents, corticosteroids \>10 mg daily prednisone equivalent, or other immunosuppressive drugs) prior to registration.
  • NOTE: Replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) is not considered a form of systemic treatment. Patients with vitiligo, Graves' disease, or psoriasis not requiring systemic treatment within the past 30 days are not excluded. Patients with Celiac disease controlled with diet modification are not excluded.

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
