Randomized Phase II Trial of Cyclophosphamide With Allogeneic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) DRibble Vaccine Alone or With Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor or Imiquimod for Adjuvant Treatment of Definitively-Treated Stage IIIA or IIIB NSCLC

This study will test an investigational vaccine, called DRibbles, for the treatment of
non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We hypothesize that vaccination with the DRibble vaccine
will cause an immune responses against proteins contained in the DRibble vaccine and the
protein antigens targeted by this strong immune response will include common antigens shared
by both the vaccine and the patient's tumor.

This is an open-label, randomized study in which the first 33 patients will be assigned to
receive the either:

- DRibbles vaccine and HPV vaccine

- DRibbles vaccine, HPV vaccine, and imiquimod

- DRibbles vaccine, HPV vaccine, and GM-CSF After 11 patients have been assigned to each
group, the study arm with the greatest number of vaccine-induced strong antibody
responses will then continue with enrollment of 15 further patients. The primary
objective is to determine the best strategy to induce strong (>15 fold) tumor-specific
or tumor-associated antibody responses in patients with stage III A and B NSCLC. The
goal is to select one regimen to advance to additional clinical trials.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Stage IIIA or IIIB histologically proven non-small cell lung cancer

- Completion of definitive therapy

- Ability to give informed consent and comply with protocol

- Anticipated survival minimum of 6 months

- Prior therapy with investigational agents must be completed at least 3 weeks prior to
study enrollment

- Normal organ and marrow function as defined by specific lab tests

- Archived tumor tissue available

Exclusion Criteria:

- Active autoimmune disease except for vitilogo or hypothyroidism

- Active other malignancy

- Known HIV+ and/or Hepatitis B or C positive
