Anti-CD3 x Anti-Erbitux® Armed Activated T Cells (Phase Ib) for Gastrointestinal (GI Cancer)

NCT ID: NCT01420874

Last Updated: 2023-05-06

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE1
• Total Enrollment: 15 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2011-08-17
• Study Completion Date: 2020-10-19

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is for the participant to give their own T cells (a type of blood cell in the body that can fight infections and possibly cancer) to them after they have been removed, grown in a lab, and then coated with an experimental drug.

This study will determine the highest dose of EGFR2Bi coated T cells that can be given without causing severe side effects. Initially a group of 3 participants will receive the same dose of study drug. If no serious side effects occur, the next group of participants will receive a slightly higher dose of study agent. The following groups of participants will receive higher doses of the study drug until a dose is reached where there are unacceptable side effects and maximum tolerated dose is found, or the planned highest dose level is reached with no side effects.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to determine in a dose-escalation phase Ib trial the safety of 3 infusions of EGFR2Bi armed activated T cells (aATC), after chemotherapy, for patients with advanced colorectal and pancreatic cancer

Conditions

Study Groups

FOLFOX6 & EGFRBi armed ATC Infusions

FOLFOX6: IV administration of 85 mb/m(2) oxaliplatin and 400 mg/m(2) leucovorin over 120 mins, followed by 400 mg/m(2) 5-fluorouracil (FU) bolus then 2400 mg/m(2) 5-FU as a 46 hr infusion. All patients must have central intravenous acess (e.g. mediport, PICC line) for continuous infusion of 5-FU. Adv. colorectal and pancreatic pts. w/no other standard chemo available, & in pts who cannot receive FOLFOX chemo, immunotherapy may be given w/o antecedent chemo.

EGFRBi armed ATC Infusions: Armed ATC will be infused intravenously (IV) with the rate of infusion based on the endotoxin content of the product. All patients will be observed for at least 4 hours after an infusion. Armed ATC infusions will begin 3 weeks after chemotherapy and subsequent doses will be administered once weekly, for 3 weeks, then 12 weeks post aATC#1. Dose escalation level(per infusion): Level 0-5 billion; Level 1-10 billion; Level 2-20 billion; Level 3-40 billion

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

FOLFOX6

Intervention Type: DRUG

All patients must have central intravenous acess (e.g. mediport, PICC line) for continuous infusion of 5-FU. Adv. colorectal and pancreatic pts. w/no other standard chemo available, \& in pts who cannot receive FOLFOX chemo, immunotherapy may be given w/o antecedent chemo.

EGFRBi armed ATC Infusions

Intervention Type: BIOLOGICAL

Armed ATC will be infused intravenously (IV) with the rate of infusion based on the endotoxin content of the product. All patients will be observed for at least 4 hours after an infusion. Armed ATC infusions will begin 3 weeks after chemotherapy and subsequent doses will be administered once weekly, for 3 weeks, then 12 weeks post aATC#1. Dose escalation level(per infusion): Level 0-5 billion; Level 1-10 billion; Level 2-20 billion; Level 3-40 billion
