This is a single-center, single-arm phase I study to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of autologous dendritic cells (DCs) loaded with multiple tumor neoantigen peptides administered as a cancer-treatment vaccination for the treatment of newly-diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM). The subjects are adult GBM patients who have undergone surgical resection. After the completion of TMZ concurrent chemoradiation, and, during conventional adjuvant TMZ chemotherapy, subjects will receive autologous DC vaccine treatments as scheduled. Ten subjects will be enrolled. The autologous genetic-modification-free DC cells will be loaded with multiple tumor neoantigen peptides and administered (i.d) to subjects. After 5 injections, the investigator will review subject's tolerance and compliance, and decide whether or not to administer more DC vaccines up to 8 injections. For certain patients with good tolerance and clinical response of the DC vaccine, peripheral blood is extracted after completion of TMZ adjuvant chemotherapy to assess patient's immune response. According to the result, investigators will be decided whether to perform more 1-2 treatment cycles (5-8 infections/cycle) to strengthen the effectiveness.

Arms

Experimental: DC vaccine group

Subjects will receive five to eight doses of the DC vaccine through i.d. injection into regions near to the groin and axillary during they receive TMZ adjuvant chemotherapy

Interventions

Biological: - Autologous dendritic cells pulsed with multiple neoantigen peptides.

Each dosage of Dendritic Cells (DC) vaccine contains 2-10 million DC cells, loaded with 5-20 tumor neoantigen peptides. DC vaccine will be administered (i.d) around lymph nodes of the groin and Axillary at 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 7th and 11th week after the completion of concurrent Temozolomide chemoradiation. After 5 injections, the investigator will review subject's tolerance and compliance; and, decide whether to administer more DC vaccines up to 8 injections. For certain patients with good tolerance and clinical response of the DC vaccine, peripheral blood is extracted after completion of Temozolomide adjuvant chemotherapy to assess the patient's immune response. According to the result, investigators will decide whether to perform 1-2 more treatment cycles (5-8 injections/cycle) to strengthen the effectiveness

Drug: - Temozolomide adjuvant chemotherapy

Temozolomide is administered as the standard-of-care adjuvant chemotherapy, in combination with the DC vaccines to treat the enrolled patients.
