Study Overview

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

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.

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

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group/ArmIntervention/Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: 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, P

DRUG: 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)

BIOLOGICAL: 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 subse
Primary Outcome MeasuresMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Determining in a dose-escalation phase Ib trial the safety of 3 infusions of EGFR2Bi aATC, and a booster infusion after 3 months, for patients with advanced colorectal or pancreatic cancer.Participants will be assessed for changes in lab values (CBC, Sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, bicarbonate, glucose,BUN, creatinine, total Protein, albumin, total bilirubin, ALP, AST,ALT, CEA or CA 19-9.4 wks after chemo, prior to ATC infusion #2; 1 wk later prior to ATC infusion #3; Wks 2, 4 & 9 post ATC infusion #3; Wk 8 post ATC #4 (booster)
Secondary Outcome MeasuresMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Determining whether IMT enhances anti-tumor immunity;Cytokine resp., phenotypic markers, anti-tumor cytotoxicity, in vivo and in vitro specific anti-tumor antibody prod. & molecular signaling markers of T-cell activation assessed before chemo & after IMTImmune studies: Serum cytokine responses will be quantified focus on the levels of those factors known to be important regulators of T cell responses. Phenotype analysis will measure the percent of T, B, NKT and NK cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) and tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) samples. T cell proportions would be further analyzed by subset (CD4, CD8, CD25+). Cytotoxicity is measured in percentage in PBMC.3 weeks after chemo prior to ATC infusion #1; At wks 4(ATC #2) & 5 (ATC #3) post chemo; wks 2 , 4 & 9 post ATC #3 infusion; Day of ATC #4 (booster infusion), then wks 2, 4 & 8; & mon 6 and 1yr post ATC #4 (booster infusion)
