Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
1. To induce immunity-mediated tumor response outside the radiation field (abscopal effect) after chemo-radiation of a metastatic site in metastatic breast cancer patients. 2. To monitor the induction of a T cell response. 3. To explore the role of PET scanning to assess tumor responses/abscopal effect.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with histologically confirmed breast cancer or other cancer which is persistent and metastatic or recurrent and metastatic. * Patients with a history of treatment for other prior malignancy will be eligible, provided they remain disease-free \> 2 years after initial treatment, or were treated for non-melanoma skin cancer, or in situ cervical cancer. * Patients must have at least 3 distinct measurable metastatic sites at least 1 cm of larger in their largest diameter. * Age \>18 years. * ECOG performance status \<2 (Karnofsky \>50%). * Life expectancy \> 3 months. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients who have had immunotherapy within 4 weeks prior to entering the study. * Patients who have had prior allergic reaction to GM-CSF * Patients on steroid therapy or other immunosuppressive therapy. * Patients undergoing therapy with other investigational agents. * Patients with known brain metastases can be included in this clinical trial but brain lesions are not eligible as target or non target lesion. * Uncontrolled inter-current illness including, but not limited to ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction within the past 6 months, unstable angina pectoris, or unstable cardiac arrhythmia requiring assessment for clinical intervention.
