Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Vaccines made from a patients tumor tissue may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells Chemotherapy combined with vaccine therapy may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining cyclophosphamide with tumor cell vaccine in treating patients who have metastatic cancer or cancer at high risk of recurrence
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the safety and clinical effects of autologous or allogeneic active-specific intralymphatic immunotherapy with a vaccine containing interferon alfa or interferon gamma-treated tumor cells followed by sargramostim GM-CSF in patients with advanced cancer

OUTLINE This is a pilot study Patients are stratified by tumor type

Tumor tissue is removed from the patient and incubated with interferon alfa or interferon gamma for 72-96 hours If autologous tumor cells are not available an allogeneic vaccine is prepared Harvested activated cells are irradiated immediately prior to use

Patients receive cyclophosphamide IV 48-72 hours after cyclophosphamide administration patients receive tumor cell vaccine intradermally Patients also receive sargramostim GM-CSF subcutaneously prior to vaccine administration and once daily for the next 8 days Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for 3 courses in the absence of unacceptable toxicity Patients with responding or stable disease after completion of course 3 may receive additional courses

Patients are followed for survival

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 20-40 patients will be accrued for this study within 18-24 months
