Brief Summary:
T regulatory lymphocytes were shown to be partly responsible for immune tolerance to cancer cells. In that respect these cells oppose to the mounting of an efficacious immune response needed to cure cancer. To treat advanced metastatic colorectal cancer, the investigators propose an immunotherapy consisting in autologous lymphocytes infusion depleted from T-regulatory cells, associated with a 5-day prior lymphoid-ablative chemotherapy associating cyclophosphamide (day 1 \& 2) with fludarabine (day 1 to 5). To administer treatment and monitor chemotherapy safety, patients will be hospitalized for 3 weeks until complete recovery from chemotherapy. Patients will then be followed-up ambulatory for 9 months during which time they will be assessed for tumor size with computed tomography (CT) - scan (primary criteria).
Detailed Description:
The primary goal of the proposed clinical trial is to eliminate cancer tumor using an autologous cell therapy aiming at mounting an efficient immune anti-tumor response by selectively depleting regulatory T-cell during a controlled amount of time. This strategy will be tested in patients with hepatic metastases from colorectal who are not eligible for surgery.
This is an open-label single cohort phase I-II therapeutic trial. Patients with hepatic metastases from primary colorectal cancer, not eligible to surgery and relapsing from conventional chemotherapy and/or targeted therapy, will be included.
Following patient inclusion:
1. A lymphapheresis will be performed at D-15 which will be subjected to cell sorting /purification of regulatory T cells on the one hand and T lymphocytes depleted from regulatory T cells (effectors T-cells) on the other, and subsequently frozen and stored (The procedures for ex vivo regulatory T cell depletion has been validated in a previous study - AFSSAPS- TC 192) ;
2. A lymphoid-ablative chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide + fludarabine) will be perform from D1 to D5,
3. Autologous effector T-cells administration will be performed at D7. Efficacy will be assessed through tumor size change. Change in tumor size will be assessed with CTscans (RECIST criteria), MRIs (functional criteria following injection: DCEMRI and diffusion MRI to assess change in cellularity and tumor necrosis and morphological criteria RECIST), and sonography with contrast injection (to assess vascular microcirculation). Assessments will be done prior to lymphoid-ablation and then monthly for 9 months. Safety will be systematically assessed daily during in-patient period using the World Health Organisation - Common Toxicity Criteria (WHO-CTC).
