Brief summary
This phase I trial is to investigate the safety and the possible side effects of bi-specific antibody armed T-cell therapy when given together with low-dose IL-2 in treating patients with Her2-positive neoplasms of digestive system. Expanded autologues T cells that have been coated with bi-specific antibodies, such as anti-CD3 and anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Interleukin-2 may stimulate white blood cells to kill tumor cells.
Detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Perform a phase I clinical trial to clearly define the toxicity profile of IV HER2Bi armed T cells in patients with neoplasms of digestive system. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate phenotype, cytokine profiles and tumor markers, cytotoxicity directed at laboratory Her2 positive cancer cell lines. II. Evaluate the clinical symptoms and signs, clinical responses, imaging examination of pretherapy and post-treatment, cytokine profiles and tumor markers in serum before and after treatment, time to progression, and overall survival. OUTLINE: This is a safety study of IV infused HER2Bi-armed activated T cells. Patients receive HER2Bi armed T cells IV weekly for 4 weeks. Patients also receive low-dose Interleukin subcutaneously (SC) daily beginning 3 days before the first HER2Bi armed T cells infusion. Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Safety as measured by local and systemic toxicities | Up to 1 year |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Changes in cytokine profiles and tumor markers in serum before and after treatment | Baseline to up to 12 months | Increases or decreases in the amount of cytokine produced from the pre-immunotherapy baseline at any time point after immunotherapy will be considered as continuous outcomes. |
| Changes in phenotyping induced by immunotherapy in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) | Baseline to up to 12 months | PBMC from the patients will be obtained before and after immunotherapy to determine if there are any phenotype changes induced by immunotherapy. Paired t-test will be used to compare the difference between baseline and after any time point of armed T cells treatment in T cell subpopulation (FACS), tumor marker (CBA/ELISA) and tumor killing ability of PBMC. |
| Clinical response rate (including clinical symptoms and signs, complete response, partial response, progressive disease, and stable disease, imaging examination of pretherapy and post-treatment) will be measured by follow-up investigation. | Up to 12 months | Point and exact confidence interval estimates will be calculated for response rate. |
| Overall survival | Up to 12 months | Will be estimated with the standard Kaplan-Meier method, from which summary statistics of interest (median, 6 month, 1-year rate, etc.) will be derived. Both point and 95% confidence interval estimates will be calculated. |
| Progression free survival | From the beginning of immunotherapy to progression or death, assessed up to 12 months | Will be estimated with the standard Kaplan-Meier method, from which summary statistics of interest (median, 6 month, 1-year rate, etc.) will be derived. Both point and 95% confidence interval estimates will be calculated. |
