Trial summary

This is a phase I/II study of interleukin-1, G-CSF and high dose ICE chemotherapy with autologous bone marrow transplant in patients with relapsed breast, testicular and lymphoid cancers. The initial goal of this study was to define the toxicity of interleukin-1 administered for 7 days prior to ICE chemotherapy. Read more about this study

A history of pathologically documented (clinical documentation may be acceptable at relapse):

Breast cancer: metastatic or locally advanced (Stage III/IV) with stable minimal (less than or equal to 2 cm) residual disease after 2 cycles of appropriate combination chemotherapy may start BMT.

Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas: all stages of relapsed or induction failure (FSC, FM, FL, DSC, DL, DM, DIDL, IBL, LBL, SNC) after appropriate chemotherapy.

Hodgkin's lymphomas: all stages of chemotherapy induction failures, first relapse less than or equal to 1 year from chemotherapy induced remission, first relapse greater than 1 year from chemotherapy induced remission if there is extranodal involvement at relapse, greater than or equal to 2 relapses (one may be after radiation) following appropriate combination chemotherapy, or relapse at any time from radiation therapy with stage IIB, IIIB, IV A/B.

Testicular cancer: all stages of relapsed or induction failure following appropriate combination chemotherapy.

No evidence of central nervous system cancer.

Patients must be between 18 and 65 years old.

Normal cardiac function: no history of angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure or ejection fraction less than 40 percent.

Negative HIV serology and hepatitis B surface antigen.

Adequate pulmonary function (PFTs are only obtained in patients with clinical evidence of pulmonary dysfunction): DLCO greater than 50 percent, compensated for Hgb, FEV 1 greater than 55 percent and PO2 greater than 60.

Negative bilateral bone marrow biopsies prior to bone marrow harvest.

No evidence of metastatic disease to the pelvis on plain film or bone scan.

About this study

This is a phase I/II study of interleukin-1, G-CSF and high dose ICE chemotherapy with autologous bone marrow transplant in patients with relapsed breast, testicular and lymphoid cancers. The initial goal of this study was to define the toxicity of interleukin-1 administered for 7 days prior to ICE chemotherapy. A total of 22 patients have been treated with IL-1 and ICE and results showed a more rapid engraftment (4.5 days) with IL-1. A second cohort of 18 patients also received G-CSF and engraftment was further shortened in some subgroups. Overall, the median time to engraftment was 16 days with both IL-1 and G-CSF. Accrual will continue to further define the toxicity and efficacy of this regimen.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing interleukin-1 in people with Breast Neoplasms and Lymphoma, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Mar 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00001270, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Mar 2008.
