Study Summary

RATIONALE: Interleukin-2 may stimulate a person's white blood cells including natural killer cells to kill prostate cancer cells. Interferon gamma may interfere with the growth of the cancer cells. Combining interferon gamma with interleukin-2 may be a more effective treatment for prostate cancer. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of biological therapy using interleukin-2 and interferon gamma in treating patients with advanced prostate cancer.

Interventions

  • BIOLOGICAL aldesleukin
  • BIOLOGICAL recombinant interferon gamma
  • BIOLOGICAL gene-modified tumor cell vaccine therapy
