Clinical Trial: Immunotherapy of Cancer Using Donor Lymphocytes Labelled with in-Vitro Bispecific Antibodies.
This study is currently recruiting patients.
Verified by Hadassah Medical Organization September 2005
|
Purpose
Patients with resistant metastatic solid tumors failing all conventional modalities who are eligible for immunotherapy by bispecific antibodies.
First step: NST Second step: Patients with tumor cells expressing positive Her-2Neu and/or EpCAM with residual or recurrent disease following NST will be candidates for donor lymphocytes immunotherapy using bispecific antibodies.
Patients with no matched donor available, expressing positive Her-2Neu and/or EpCAM tumor cells, will be eligible for donor mismatched lymphocytes using in-vitro rIL-2 activated allogeneic lymphocytes targeted to the tumor by bispecific antibodies, Her-2Neu and/or EpCAM.
