Cancer antigen (CA)-125 ≤ upper limit of normal with a prior history of an elevated CA-125.
Able and willing to undergo mononuclear cell collection.
Not more than 12 weeks between enrollment and the last dose of chemotherapy that resulted in complete remission.
No prior surgery to the peritoneum or pleural space within 28 days of enrollment, excluding removal of catheters used for chemotherapy administration.

It should be noted that complete blood count results, including monocyte count ≥ 0.2 × 10^9/L, will be needed prior to leukapheresis to determine if sufficient dendritic cells can be obtained for Cvac™ manufacture.)
