Brief Summary: This research is being done to look at the safety and value of a vaccine for a cancer found in the blood and skin known as Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma CTCL and Sezary Syndrome

In the laboratory researches found that special white blood cells called dendritic cells DCs are able to stimulate the immune system groups of cells that protect the body from germs and diseases in a way that helps your body fight cancer Autologous from your own body DCs will be prepared mixed together in the laboratory with your cancer cell Sezary cells to allow your DCs to pick up parts of your Sezary cells to make the vaccine for you
Detailed Description: Although the etiology of CTCL is not completely understood immunologic factors appear to play an important role

Dendritic Cell DC-tumor cell vaccines have several features that suggest applications for the immunotherapy of human tumors Importantly DC-tumor cell immunization has the potential to simultaneously stimulate CD4 and CD8 T cell-mediated immunity against multiple tumor antigens

The vaccine will be prepared from the subjects own blood obtained during leukapheresis From leukapheresed blood monocyte-derived DCs and malignant lymphocytes will be isolated The DCs will then be loaded with lymphocyte-derived tumor antigens Formulations and release criteria must be met before vaccine can be administered
