Clinical Trial Summary

This research will study how to activate the immune system by using gene transfer. Gene transfer involves inserting a specially designed gene into cancer cells. A gene is a part of the genetic code that instructs the cells of our bodies to produce specific compounds (proteins) important for the makeup or function of the cell. The study hypothesis is that repeated doses of SCH 721015 given over a three day interval would result in gene transfer.


Clinical Trial Description

Ad.hIFN-α (SCH 721015, adenoviral-mediated interferon alpha) is a replication-defective recombinant adenoviral vector containing the human interferon-alpha (hIFN-alpha) gene. This Phase I study is designed to evaluate the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of two doses of Ad.hIFN-alpha injected into the pleural (intrapleural, IP) and given 4 days apart in subjects with pleural mesothelioma.

Subjects who meet eligibility will have a pleural catheter placed 2 weeks prior to the first dose. Subjects are then admitted to the research center on Days 1 and 4 for dosing and overnight observation. Subjects are then followed-up as outpatients for a total of 6 months. Radiographic evaluations are repeated on Day 64 and at 6 months. The pleural catheter is removed once it is not necessary. ;
