About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of Peptide Vaccine and S-1 Plus CPT-11 Chemotherapy in Patients With Unresectable Recurrent or Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immune response of different doses of RNF43-721 emulsified with Montanide ISA 51 in combination with S-1/CPT-11 chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

RNF43 is a cancer testis antigen which express widely in colorectal cancer tissue but not in normal organs. RNF43-721 induces HLA A24 restricted specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) against RNF43 expressed target. S-1/CPT-11 chemotherapy is performed unresectable advanced colorectal cancer in Japan and is reported to be obtained almost the same result compared with FOLFOX or FOLFIRI as first-line chemotherapy for advanced colorectal cancer. Because synergistic effect between vaccine therapy and chemotherapy will be expected, we plan phase I study to evaluate the safety and immune response of different doses of RNF43-721 emulsified with Montanide ISA 51 in combination with S-1/CPT-11 chemotherapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing RNF43-721 in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Kazuhiko Yoshimatsu at 1 site in Japan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety (toxicities as assessed by NCI CTCAE version 3) (time frame: 2 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00641615, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 May 2015.
