Summary

Primary Objectives: 1. To determine the patient's tumor response rate that this protocol will produce. 2. To determine the 1 year progression-free survival that this protocol will produce. Secondary Objective: 1. To determine whether antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) is the mechanism of overcoming Herceptin-resistance by use of Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Histological confirmation of invasive carcinoma of the breast.
  • HER-2/neu overexpression: 3+ by immunohistochemical staining or Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) (+).
  • Stage IV breast cancer with measurable disease.
  • Patient receiving progressive disease after Herceptin plus chemotherapy or Herceptin alone. No more than two Herceptin containing regimens.
  • Zubrod performance status 0 or 1.
  • Adequate hematological parameters (White Blood cells-WBC > 3,000/mm3, platelet count > 100,000/mm3), adequate renal function (serum creatinine < 2.0 mg/dl), adequate liver function (total bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase (AST or SGOT) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT or SGPT) < 3 x normal).

Exclusion Criteria

  • Active Brain metastasis.
  • No measurable disease at the time of registration (e.g. bone only, leptomeningeal disease alone or pleural effusion alone).
  • More than 2 Herceptin containing regimens in metastatic breast cancer.
  • Known history of HIV positive.
