About this study

Official title: T-cell Based Immunotherapy for Treatment of Patients Squamous Cell Carcinoma in the Oral Cavity. A Pilot Study.

The aim of this study is to investigate the toxicity and immune response of therapy with tumor infiltrating lymphocytes as adjuvant treatment for head and neck cancer after primary operation and radiotherapy.

Patient will receive a single treatment consisting of conditioning chemotherapy for seven days (cyclophosphamide for two days and fludarabine for five days), intravenous infusion of high number of in vitro expanded tumor infiltrating lymphocytes followed by two weeks with daily low-dose interleukine-2. Patients will be evaluated for toxicity and immune response.

Being tested
cyclophosphamide, fludarabine, T-cell infusion, and Interleukin-2
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Squamous Cell, Head and Neck Neoplasms

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • cyclophosphamide, fludarabine, T-cell infusion, and Interleukin-2Biological

    Also called Cyclophosphamide, Sendoxan®, Baxter A/S, Fludarabine, Fludara®, Bayer Shering, Interleukin-2, Proleukin®, Chiron B.V.

    Two days of cyclophosphamide (60 mg/kg i.v.) and five days of fludarabine (25 mg/m2 i.v.). Infusion of Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (10e9-10e10 cells). Followed by daily sc injections of 2 MIE Interleukin-2 for two weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing cyclophosphamide, fludarabine, T-cell infusion, and Interleukin-2 in people with Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Head and Neck Cancer, run by Inge Marie Svane at 1 site in Denmark.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Nov 2011. 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 Denmark. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

toxicity (time frame: week 0 to 20). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 23 Nov 2011.
