Study Summary

Sarcoma patients are at high risk for their cancer to recur even when the sarcoma has been removed surgically or treated with radiation or chemotherapy. The patients in the study will be randomized (like flipping a coin) to receive either a vaccine that is combined with an immune system stimulant or the immune system stimulant alone. The immune system stimulant is called OPT-821 and is an immunological booster. The trivalent vaccine is being developed to teach the patient's immune system to recognize 3 types of sugars called GM2, GD2 and GD3 that are found primarily on the surface of sarcoma cells. If the trivalent vaccine can stimulate the patient's immune system to develop antibodies which recognize and target the GM2, GD2 and GM3 sugars, then the patient's antibodies could attack and kill any remaining sarcoma cells potentially preventing the recurrence of sarcoma.

Primary Outcome

The primary objective is to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) over time. Progression free survival is defined as the time from randomization until any evidence of tumor growth or appearance anywhere in the body or death from any cause as determined by the principal investigator at each site. The principal investigator will determine Progression-free survival by using CT scans to evaluate disease recurrence. For the purpose of this study, progression of disease is defined as the develo
