Number of Participants Who Experienced Toxicity to the Vaccine Primary · 1 week after each vaccine dose.

This outcome measure looks at the safety of the vaccine by documenting the number of grade 2, 3, or toxicities experienced by participants related to the vaccine.

Peak Immune Response as Measured by Number of Spots Per Cells Primary · 6 months after last immunization

This outcome measure examined the importance of vaccine timing on antigen-specific relative to the primary cytotoxic therapy on the augmentation of antigen specific immune responses by measuring the duration of immune responses of participants

Adverse events — posted to ClinicalTrials.gov

Time frame: Adverse Events will be collected from the time the subject signs the consent form and ending 4 weeks following the final (typically the fourth) vaccine. For Arm A is approximately 5 months. For Arm B is approximately 6 months.. Reporting threshold: 5%. Adverse-event reports describe events observed during the trial — not all are caused by the drug.

Sponsor's own description

RATIONALE: Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Giving vaccine therapy before and/or after chemotherapy and radiation therapy may cause a stronger immune response. PURPOSE: This randomized phase I/II trial is studying the side effects of two regimens of vaccine therapy and to see how well they work in treating women who are receiving neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy and adjuvant radiation therapy for stage III breast cancer that overexpresses p53.
