Primary Outcome Measure: Immunological Response; Antigen Specific Reactions Will be Measured by IFN-ELISPOT. The ELISPOT is a Quantitative Readout of Number of T Cells That React to Specific Antigenic Stimulus. [ Time Frame: Evaluated for 52 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
The endpoint is immunologic response measured by IFN-ELISPOT. Increases above pre-vaccine levels (& controls) can be assessed statistically by ANOVA. Percent patients responding to vaccine (>2 Standard Deviation increase from baseline levels pre-vaccine) as well as magnitude of responses (relative ELISPOT measures) will be compared to results obtained using DC/1650 vaccine. The number of individuals responding (> 2 SD change from baseline vaccine) will provide an approximation of biologic efficacy of the vaccine.
Primary Outcome Measure: Immunological Response [ Time Frame: Evaluated for 52 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Allogeneic Cellular Vaccine 1650-G for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Allogeneic Cellular Vaccine 1650-G for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

Rationale: Vaccines made from allogeneic tumor cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells.

The Purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of a lung cancer vaccine in patients with Stage I or Stage II Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) after completion of initial definitive therapies.

The study is an open label investigation of the cellular vaccine called 1650-G. Patients receive 2 vaccine injections intradermally in the thigh given 4 weeks apart. Patients will be followed weekly after each vaccine injection and then monthly for 4 months. Patient follow-up continues with evaluations at 6 months and 1 year after receiving the first vaccine injection. Immunologic responses to the vaccine will be assessed from blood samples obtained at each visit following immunizations.
