Tumor-specific idiotype vaccines in the treatment of patients with B- cell
lymphoma--long-term results of a clinical trial

The surface Ig on each B-cell lymphoma has unique portions (idiotypes),
which can be recognized by the immune system. In this study, we immunized
patients against the Ig expressed by their tumor and observed their
clinical outcomes. After standard chemotherapy, 41 patients with
non-Hodgkin's B-cell lymphoma received a series of injections with a
vaccine consisting of tumor Ig protein coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin
and emulsified in an immunologic adjuvant. Subjects were observed for
toxicity, immune responses, and tumor status. The median duration of
follow-up of all patients is 7.3 years from diagnosis and 5.3 years from
the last chemotherapy given before vaccine treatment. Twenty patients (49%)
generated specific immune responses against the idiotypes of their tumor
Ig. Two patients who had residual disease experienced complete tumor
regression in association with the development of these immune responses.
The median duration of freedom from disease progression and overall
survival of all 20 patients mounting an anti-idiotype immune response are
significantly prolonged compared to the patients who did not mount an
immune response. Thirty- two patients were in their first remission and
nine were in subsequent remissions before beginning vaccine treatments.
Analysis of the 32 first remission patients also shows an improved clinical
outcome for those patients who mounted a specific immune response compared
to those who did not (freedom from progression, 7.9 years v 1.3 years P =
.0001; median survival from time of last chemotherapy not yet reached v 7
years, P = .04). This study confirms an earlier report that patients with
B-cell lymphoma can be induced to make a specific immune response against
the Ig expressed by their own tumor. It further shows that the ability to
make such an immune response is correlated with a more favorable clinical
outcome. Prospective controlled trials will be needed to prove a causal
relationship between anti-idiotype immunity and improved clinical outcome.
