Safety/Efficacy of a Vaccine Prepared From Dendritic Cells Combined With Tumor Cells to Treat Advanced Kidney Cancer

Inclusion Criteria: * The patient must be greater than or equal to 18 years of age. * The patient must be diagnosed with AJCC Stage IV (primary or relapsed) Renal Cell Carcinoma. * The patient must have a Screening Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Clinical Performance Status of 0-1. * The patient must have accessible tumor (minimum of 2.5 cm in diameter in aggregate and accessible as defined in the clinical protocol) for vaccine production. * The patient must have measurable tumor lesions (using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors \[RECIST\]) following resection of tumor lesion(s) used for vaccine production. If the patient has received previous radiation or intra-tumoral investigational treatments, the measurable disease must be outside the previous radiation port or treatment area unless there is documented tumor progression following the completion of therapy. * The patient must have adequate hematologic, hepatic, and renal function parameters at Screening: White blood cell (WBC) count greater than or equal to 3,000 cells/mm3; Platelet count greater than or equal to 100,000 platelets /mm3; Creatinine (serum) less than 2.0 mg/dL; Total bilirubin less than 2.0 mg/dL; Serum glutamic pyruvate transaminase (SGPT)/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) less than 2.0 x Upper limits of normal; Serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT)/ aspartate aminotransferase (AST) less than 2.0 x Upper limits of normal * The patient must be serologically negative for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1, HIV-2, and human T lymphotropic virus (HTLV)-1. * Female patients of childbearing potential must have negative pregnancy tests, refrain from nursing and must agree to use appropriate contraception for the duration of the trial. * The patient must have signed and dated written informed consent prior to any study procedures. The consent process must be documented in the patient's medical record. Exclusion Criteria: * The patient has received prior chemotherapy for the treatment of RCC. * The patient has received more than 2 prior regimens for treatment of RCC and the most recent is within 2 weeks of the first screening procedure. * The patient has received radiation therapy within 2 weeks of the first screening procedure. * The patient has a clinically significant autoimmune disorder. * The patient has an active infection at the time of the first screening procedure requiring parenteral antibiotics. * The patient has clinically significant hematologic, cardiac, renal, or hepatic disease or any other underlying condition that would contraindicate study therapy or confuse interpretation of study results. * The patient has a history of more than one brain metastasis. Patients with a history of a single brain metastasis must have completed definitive treatment for this metastasis not less than 12 weeks prior to the time of first screening procedure and have remained clinically stable during this interval. * The patient has a previous unrelated malignancy or second malignancy within 5 years prior to the first screening procedure, except for non-melanoma skin cancer and in situ carcinomas. * The patient is receiving chronic immunosuppressive and/or oral steroid treatment. * The patient has any other reason in the Investigator's opinion that would make protocol compliance unmanageable or may compromise the patient's ability to give informed consent. * The patient has been treated with a non-oncologic investigational drug, biologic or medical device within 30 days of the first screening procedure.
