Brief Summary: RATIONALE Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells Giving a vaccine with Montanide ISA-51 and sargramostim may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vaccine therapy when given together with Montanide ISA-51 and sargramostim in treating patients with stage IV breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the safety of telomerase 540-548 peptide vaccine emulsified in Montanide ISA-51 and sargramostim GM-CSF in patients with HLA-A2-expressing stage IV breast cancer

Secondary

Compare the generation of human telomerase reverse transcriptase hTERT peptide-specific vs cytomegalovirus peptide-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte CTL immunity in patients treated with this regimen
Correlate the dose level of this regimen with the generation of hTERT-specific CTL immunity and the development of hTERT-specific autoimmunity in these patients
Determine the tumor response in patients treated with this regimen

OUTLINE This is a dose-escalation study of the telomerase 540-548 peptide and CMV 495 peptide portions of the vaccine

Patients receive telomerase 540-548 peptide and CMV 495 peptide as an immunological control vaccine emulsified in Montanide ISA-51 subcutaneously SC followed by sargramostim GM-CSF SC on day 1 of weeks 1 3 5 7 11 15 19 and 27 for a total of 8 vaccinations Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Cohorts of 5-8 patients receive escalating doses of telomerase 540-548 peptide and CMV 495 peptide until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 5 or 2 of 8 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity A total of 12 patients receive treatment at the MTD

Patients are followed within 30 days and then at 6 and 12 months

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 5-28 patients will be accrued for this study
