Brief Summary: RATIONALE Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of vaccine therapy in treating patients who have stage IV head and neck cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxic effects of recombinant fowlpox-TRICOM vaccine in patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity or oropharynx or nodal or dermal metastases
Determine the safety profile of this regimen in these patients
Determine the clinical activity of this regimen in terms of inflammation at injection sites and disease regression or stabilization in these patients

OUTLINE This is a dose-escalation study

Patients receive recombinant fowlpox-TRICOM vaccine rF-TRI intralesionally once on weeks 0 3 and 8 Beginning on week 16 patients may receive additional rF-TRI once every 8 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of rF-TRI until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which at least 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity

Patients are followed at 1 year

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 20 patients will be accrued for this study
