- Patients must have completed one prior form of chemo and or radiation therapy for
their disease and have failed to achieve remission.

- There must be no clinical or radiographic signs of active brain metastases (CT of
brain), or disease to the brain that is not considered controlled.

- At least 4 weeks must have elapsed since chemotherapy or biological therapy and 2
weeks must have elapsed since therapy.

- Female patients must be at least 18 years of age

- Must be ambulatory with a ECOG performance status of <2

- Must have common recall antigen DTH skin >2mm

- Must have lab values as following ANC >1.5 x 109/L; platelets >100x109/L; Hb>9g/dL;
creatinine<1.8 mg/dL or a creatinine clearance > 35 mL/min; total bilirubin < 2 x the
upper limit of normal; AST and ALT < 2.5 x the upper limit of normal; albumin > 2.5
g/L

- If of child bearing potential, must practice a reliable method of contraception at
screening and must agree to continue this status until 6 months after receiving the
last study vaccine injection. An HCG (pregnancy) test will be done monthly until the

squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or cervical cancer stage 1B

- Active infection requiring continuous use of antibiotic therapy

- Significant cardiac or other medical illness that would limit activity or survival,
such as severe congestive heart failure, unstable angina, or serious cardiac
arrhythmia

- Autoimmune disease currently treated with steroids

- Adverse reactions to vaccines such as anaphylaxis or other serious reactions, e.g.
life-threatening reactions to medicine

- History of immunodeficiency or autoimmune disease such as rheumatoid arthritis,
systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, polymyositis dermatomyositis, juvenile
onset insulin dependent diabetes, or a vasculitic syndrome

- Pregnancy or lactation

- Any reason why, in the opinion of the investigator, the patient should not
participate

- Patients who have received cytotoxic anti-tumor therapy within 4 weeks prior to
vaccination

- Patients with active hepatitis (B,C) or HIV + individuals
