Brief Summary: RATIONALE Vaccines made from a persons white blood cells and cancer cells may make the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells

PURPOSE This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vaccine therapy in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the maximum tolerated dose of autologous dendritic and leukemic fusion cell vaccine in patients with acute myeloid leukemia
Determine the toxicity of this vaccine in these patients

Secondary

Determine whether cellular immunity can be induced by this vaccine in these patients

OUTLINE This is a dose-escalation study

At the time of diagnosis patients undergo tumor cell harvest Patients also undergo bone marrow aspiration to collect mononuclear cells to obtain dendritic cells DC If insufficient DCs are obtained patients undergo leukapheresis to obtain a sufficient number of peripheral blood mononuclear cells PBMC The PBMC are treated in the laboratory with sargramostim GM-CSF and interleukin-4 for 5-7 days to produce DC Leukemic blasts are fused to DC to generate the dendriticleukemic fusion cell vaccine

Patients then undergo standard induction chemotherapy to obtain a remission followed by standard consolidation chemotherapy

After completing consolidation chemotherapy patients receive autologous dendritic and leukemic fusion cell vaccine subcutaneously every 2 weeks for a total of 4 doses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Cohorts of 3 patients receive escalating doses of autologous dendritic and leukemic fusion cell vaccine until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity

Patients are followed every 3 months for 5 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 3-9 patients will be accrued for this study
