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.

Drug: adenovirus-mediated human interleukin-12 |
Phase I |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Treatment |
Official Title: | Phase I Trial of Adenoviral Vector Delivery of the Human Interleukin-12 cDNA by Intratumoral Injection in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer to the Liver |
Estimated Enrollment: | 36 |
Study Start Date: | October 2005 |
OBJECTIVES:
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.
Patients receive adenovirus-mediated human interleukin-12 via percutaneous intratumoral needle puncture under ultrasound guidance on day 1.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of adenovirus-mediated human interleukin-12 until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 36 patients will be accrued for this study.
Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years to 85 Years |

DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
Histologically or cytologically confirmed* breast adenocarcinoma metastatic to the liver
Solitary or multiple hepatic metastases
PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
No systemic immunosuppressive drugs, including corticosteroids, within 2 months prior to study entry
