Biological Therapy in Treating Women With Breast Cancer That Has Spread to the Liver
- Conditions
- Breast CancerMetastatic Cancer
- Interventions
- Biological: adenovirus-mediated human interleukin-12
- Registration Number
- NCT00301106
- Lead Sponsor
- Max Sung
- Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Biological therapy using a gene-modified virus that can make interleukin-12 may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of a gene-modified virus that can make interleukin-12 in treating women with breast cancer that has spread to the liver.
- Detailed Description
Direct intratumoral injection of metastatic hepatic tumors using an adenoviral vector expressing the human recombinant interleukin-12 gene (Adv.RSV-hIL12, also termed ADV-hIL-12).
OBJECTIVES:
* Study the toxicity of escalating doses of adenoviral vector expressing the human recombinant interleukin-12 gene, administered by percutaneous intratumoral injection, in women with liver metastasis secondary to breast cancer.
* Determine tumor responses produced by this regimen.
* Determine immune responses induced by this regimen.

Group Intervention Description adenovirus-mediated human interleukin-12 adenovirus-mediated human interleukin-12 starting dose of ADV-hIL12 - 1 x 10 to the 10th power vp (virus particles) per patient, escalating in half-log increments up to 1 x 10 to the 13th power vp per patient, after which dose escalation will be at lower increments of 2 x 10 to the 13th power vp, to a maximum of 3.0 x 10 to the 13th power vp per patient.
