Temozolomide and Survivin Long Peptide Vaccine (SurVaxM) for the Treatment of Patients With Progressing Metastatic Neuroendocrine Carcinomas

Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥ 18 years of age * Have a Karnofsky performance status ≥ 80 or Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 1 (i.e. the patient must be able to care for himself/ herself with occasional help from others) * Measurable, pathologically confirmed diagnosis of neuroendocrine tumor of gastrointestinal, pancreatic, or thoracic origin with ki67\>20% (well-differentiated G3 NETs) or neuroendocrine carcinoma of any origin excluding small cell lung carcinoma * Patients must have documented radiographic progression, determined as clinically significant by the treating provider, within the last twelve months on two CT or MRI scans performed at least four weeks apart per RECIST v1.1 criteria. In the case of retreatment, progression may be defined by the treating provider (e.g., clinical, radiographic, biochemical) * Patients must have failed at least one prior systemic therapy * Patients who have been on somatostatin analogues (SSA) may continue to take SSA while on study treatment * Archival neuroendocrine tumor tissue must test positive for survivin presence by clinical immunohistochemistry prior to study enrollment * Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 10\^9/L (obtained within 14 days prior to enrollment) * Platelets ≥ 100 x 10\^9/L (obtained within 14 days prior to enrollment) * Hemoglobin (Hgb) \> 9g/dL (obtained within 14 days prior to enrollment) * Plasma total bilirubin: ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) (obtained within 14 days prior to enrollment) * Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 4 x ULN (obtained within 14 days prior to enrollment) * Creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min (per Cockroft-Gault equation) (obtained within 14 days prior to enrollment) * Patients on full-dose anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin or low molecular weight \[LMW\] heparin) must meet the following criteria: * No active bleeding or pathological condition that carries a high risk of bleeding (e.g., tumor involving major vessels or known varices, which carries a significant risk of bleeding in investigator's opinion) * Participants of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraceptive methods (e.g., hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately * Participant must understand the investigational nature of this study and sign an independent ethics committee/institutional review board approved written informed consent form prior to receiving any study related procedure Exclusion Criteria: * Patients who have received temozolomide in the advanced disease setting either alone or as part of a combination therapy will be excluded if they progressed while on it * Has received prior treatment with SurVaxM * Received an investigational agent within 30 days prior to enrollment * Participants who have received checkpoint inhibitors within 3 months prior to study enrollment or, those who have not recovered from adverse events due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier * Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, bradycardia, tachycardia or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements and, which in the treating physicians' opinion would jeopardize the ability of the patient to receive the treatment outlined in this protocol with reasonable safety * Patients with a concurrent or prior malignancy are ineligible unless they are patients with curatively treated carcinoma-in-situ or basal cell carcinoma of the skin. Patients who have been free of disease (any prior malignancy) for at least 3 years are eligible for this study * Known history of an autoimmune disorder * Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positivity or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) related illness or other serious medical illness * Systemic corticosteroid therapy \> 2mg of dexamethasone or equivalent per day at study entry * Pregnant or nursing female participants * Unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements * Any condition which in the Investigator's opinion deems the participant an unsuitable candidate to receive study drug * Patients with Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C may be included if there are adequately controlled viral titers and no drug-drug interactions, testing not required
