Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities
Every 3 weeks for 9 weeks and every 3 months for 1 year

The primary objective of this protocol is to determine the safety of immunization with Ad5 \[E1-, E2b-\]-CEA(6D) in patients with advanced or metastatic CEA-expressing malignancies. A dosing scheme will be considered safe if \<33% of patients treated at a dosage level experience DLT (e.g., 0 of 3, ≤1 of 6, ≤3 of 12 or ≤5 of 18 patients).

Number of Participants With Adverse Events
from the time of first dose to the 30 days past last dose of study drug, up to 330 days

Secondary Endpoints

Clinical Response Rate
from first dose up to a year follow up
Immune Response Against CEA - IFN-gamma Secreting Cells by Visit
Baseline (Week 0) up to Week 9
CEA Antibody (ng/mL) by Visit
Baseline (Week 0) to Week 9
