Biological Therapy in Treating Women With Breast Cancer That Has Spread to the Liver

Phase 1
Terminated
Conditions
Breast Cancer
Metastatic Cancer
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.
