Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="cam4449-abs-0002"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>This Phase I dose‐escalation trial determined that interleukin‐13‐<italic>Pseudomonas</italic> exotoxin (IL‐13‐PE) could be safely administered via systemic intravenous infusion at 1 <italic>μ</italic>g/kg in patients with metastatic adrenocortical carcinoma. However, patients developed high levels of neutralizing antibodies during the treatment, which suggested that in future clinical trials strategies for immunodepletion before IL‐13‐PE treatment should be considered.<boxed-text content-type="graphic" id="cam4449-blkfxd-0001" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj1smkc1z1" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
