We aren't doctors. Always consult your mD about T-Cell-Depleted Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation Followed By Donor Lymphocytes Given After Induction Chemotherapy and Reduced-Intensity Transplantation Conditioning in Treating Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a website dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. T-Cell-Depleted Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation Followed By Donor Lymphocytes Given After Induction Chemotherapy and Reduced-Intensity Transplantation Conditioning in Treating Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer Clinical research trials and T-Cell-Depleted Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation Followed By Donor Lymphocytes Given After Induction Chemotherapy and Reduced-Intensity Transplantation Conditioning in Treating Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer health trials occur in a lot of of places throughout the United States of America. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials typically assess the effectivity of new does drugs. The role of the studies / projects is to resolve certain human healthcare questions. Clinical trials are a popular way for doctors, government agencies, and private sector corporations to detect remedies for all varieties of circumstances, such as T-Cell-Depleted Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation Followed By Donor Lymphocytes Given After Induction Chemotherapy and Reduced-Intensity Transplantation Conditioning in Treating Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer. T-Cell-Depleted Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation Followed By Donor Lymphocytes Given After Induction Chemotherapy and Reduced-Intensity Transplantation Conditioning in Treating Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow volunteers to obtain health treatment choices before they are available to the general public. Most times the human subjects recieve professional assistance for free of charge, and every now and again they are paid for their time. Sometimes there is a cost for a T-Cell-Depleted Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation Followed By Donor Lymphocytes Given After Induction Chemotherapy and Reduced-Intensity Transplantation Conditioning in Treating Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer clinical trial. Human subjects frequently get the finest healthcare available for their T-Cell-Depleted Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation Followed By Donor Lymphocytes Given After Induction Chemotherapy and Reduced-Intensity Transplantation Conditioning in Treating Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer condition. Risks are a reality, however, and may include extra or frequent physician visits, medical dangers (possibly life-threatening), and/or the treatment being uneffective. Trials are federally governed with strict guidelines to protect clinical trials patients.

T-Cell-Depleted Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation Followed By Donor Lymphocytes Given After Induction Chemotherapy and Reduced-Intensity Transplantation Conditioning in Treating Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer
For Condition: stage 4 breast cancer,Male Breast Cancer,recurrent breast cancer
Status: Recruiting
Sponsor(s): National Cancer Institute (NCI) ,
Synopsis: RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Reducing the dose of drugs used in chemotherapy may decrease side effects. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation may be effective in killing metastatic tumor cells. Sometimes the transplanted cells can make an immune response against the body's normal tissues. Eliminating the T cells from the donor cells before transplanting them may prevent this from happening. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining T-cell-depleted (T-cells removed) donor stem cell transplantation followed by treated donor lymphocytes given after induction chemotherapy and reduced-intensity conditioning (low doses of chemotherapy given before the transplant) in treating patients who have metastatic breast cancer.
Details: OBJECTIVES: Primary - Determine the safety, in terms of the incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease, and feasibility of using in vitro-generated donor T cells of Th2/Tc2 phenotype to augment a T-cell-depleted allogeneic stem cell transplantation after immunoablative induction chemotherapy and reduced-intensity transplantation conditioning in patients with metastatic breast cancer. Secondary - Determine the effect of this treatment regimen on donor chimerism in these patients. - Determine the effect of this treatment regimen on clinical response in these patients. - Determine the progression-free and overall survival of patients treated with this regimen. OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of Th2/Tc2 cells. - Immunoablative induction chemotherapy: Patients receive fludarabine IV over 30 minutes and cyclophosphamide IV over 2 hours on days 1-4. Patients also receive filgrastim (G-CSF) subcutaneously (SC) beginning on day 5 and continuing until blood counts recover. In order to achieve the greatest immunosuppression before transplantation, patients may receive a second course of immunoablative induction chemotherapy beginning on day 21 depending on CD4+ count. - Transplantation preparative regimen: Beginning 7-21 days after recovery from induction chemotherapy, patients receive fludarabine IV over 30 minutes and cyclophosphamide IV over 2 hours on days -6 to -3 before transplantation. - Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis: Patients receive cyclosporine IV over 2 hours or orally every 12 hours beginning on day -1 and continuing until day 28, followed by a taper until day 40. - Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT): Patients undergo T-cell-depleted allogeneic peripheral blood SCT on day 0. Patients receive G-CSF SC beginning on day 0 and continuing until blood counts recover. - Donor Th2/Tc2 cell administration: Patients receive donor Th2/Tc2 cells IV on day 0 after SCT. Cohorts of 6-12 patients receive escalating doses of donor Th2/Tc2 cells until feasibility is determined. Feasibility is defined as the dose level at which no more than 6 of 12 patients experience grade II-IV acute GVHD by day 42 post-transplantation. - Donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI): Patients with progressive malignant disease and less than grade II acute GVHD at day 42 post-transplantation may receive DLI on days 42, 70, and 98. Patients are followed every 2 weeks until approximately day 100 and then at 6, 9, 12, 18 and 24 months. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 45 patients will be accrued for this study within 2-3 years.
