The purpose of this research study is to find out whether adding an experimental vaccine called rindopepimut (also known as CDX-110) to the commonly used drug bevacizumab can improve progression free survival (slowing the growth of tumors) of patients with relapsed EGFRvIII positive glioblastoma.
This Phase II study will enroll patients into three groups. Group 1 are patients who have never been treated with bevacizumab. These patients will be randomly assigned to receive either rindopepimut/GM-CSF or KLH, each along with bevacizumab. Treatment assignment for Group 1 will be blinded. Group 2 and Group 2C patients are those who are refractory to bevacizumab (experienced recurrence or progression of glioblastoma while on bevacizumab or within 2 months of discontinuing bevacizumab). These patients will all receive rindopepimut/GM-CSF along with bevacizumab. Patients will be treated until disease progression or intolerance and all patients will be followed for survival. Patients may be treated with other therapies that are not part of the study after discontinuing treatment with the study vaccine.

A vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-specific humanized monoclonal antibody angiogenesis inhibitor. Infusions of 10 mg/kg of bevacizumab will begin on day 1 and will be administered every two weeks until progression of disease or intolerance during the treatment period.
Rindopepimut/GM-CSF will initially be given three times, two weeks apart, followed by monthly injections until tumor progression or intolerance. Each dose will be 0.8 mL containing approximately 500 mcg CDX-110 and 150 mcg GM-CSF.
KLH will initially be given three times, two weeks apart, followed by monthly injections until tumor progression or intolerance. Each dose will be 0.8 mL containing approximately 100 mcg of KLH.

Groups 1 and 2: Progression-free survival rate
Evaluate the antitumor activity of rindopepimut in adult patients with relapsed glioblastoma, as measured by the progression-free survival rate at 6 months post-Day 1 (PFS 6).
Time frame: 6 months post-Day 1
Group 2C: Objective Response Rate
Evaluate the anti-tumor activity of rindopepimut in adult patients with relapsed glioblastoma, as measured by the objective response rate (ORR) for patients with measurable disease at study entry.
Time frame: Every 8 weeks from Day 1 through progression or initiation of other anti-cancer therapy
Safety and Tolerability
Safety and tolerability will be evaluated by comparing the treatment regimens in regards to vital sign measurements, physical and neurological examinations, adverse events reporting, and Karnofsky performance status
Time frame: Until 28 days or initiation of other anti-cancer treatment, whichever is first
Anti-tumor activity
Evaluated by comparing the treatment regimens for anti-tumor activity, including objective response rate, overall progression free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) for Groups 1 and 2; and PFS6, overall PFS, and OS for Group 2C.
Time frame: During treatment and every 8 weeks through follow up
EGFRvIII-specific immune response
Characterize the EGFRvIII specific immune response to rindopepimut.
Time frame: Several times during the first month of treatment and then approximately every 8 weeks until treatment is stopped.
