Allogeneic Cellular Vaccine 1650-G for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

Rationale: Vaccines made from allogeneic tumor cells may help the body build an effective
immune response to kill tumor cells.

The Purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of a lung cancer vaccine in patients
with Stage I or Stage II Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) after completion of initial
definitive therapies.

The study is an open label investigation of the cellular vaccine called 1650-G. Patients
receive 2 vaccine injections intradermally in the thigh given 4 weeks apart. Patients will be
followed weekly after each vaccine injection and then monthly for 4 months. Patient follow-up
continues with evaluations at 6 months and 1 year after receiving the first vaccine
injection. Immunologic responses to the vaccine will be assessed from blood samples obtained
at each visit following immunizations.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Histologically confirmed Stage I or Stage II Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

- Surgically resected at least 4 weeks ago but not more than 6 months ago

- Bronchoalveolar carcinomas allowed

- Completion of any chemotherapy or radiation given in conjunction with Surgery
(neoadjuvant or adjuvant)

- No evidence of disease following initial therapy evidenced by a CXR, CT or PET scan
within 6 weeks of enrollment

- ECOG performance status of 0 to 2

- Adequate organ and marrow function defined as follows:

use acceptable methods of contraception through week 16.

Exclusion Criteria:

failure

after study treatment

- Female patients must not be pregnant or breastfeeding.

- History of participation in any investigational drug study within 4 weeks preceding
initiation of study treatment.
