Trial summary

Non - small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC ) accounts for more than 80% of lung cancer. The main treatment for early stage patients is surgical resection, but about 30% -70% patients will relapse. Postoperative chemotherapy is the major systemic treatment for surgical resection NSCLC patients. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase 2,Open-label Study of Autologous Cytokine-Induced Killer Cell Transfusion Plus Chemotherapy as Adjuvant Therapy for Stage IB-IIIA Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Non - small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC ) accounts for more than 80% of lung cancer. The main treatment for early stage patients is surgical resection, but about 30% -70% patients will relapse. Postoperative chemotherapy is the major systemic treatment for surgical resection NSCLC patients. However, data show only 5-10% improvement in overall survival with systemic adjuvant chemotherapy. It is necessary to further improve the survival time of patients with lung cancer. Biological treatment is becoming a new treatment modality for Cancer following with surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and has been confirmed as an effective adjuvant treatment in comprehensive cancer treatment. Cytokine induced killer cells ( CIK) characterized as fast amplification, strong anti-cancer activity and broad anti-tumor spectrum is most widely used and thought to be the first choice for the new generation of anti-tumor adoptive immunotherapy. This Phase II study is investigating the efficacy of Autologous Cytokine-Induced Killer Cell Transfusion plus Chemotherapy as adjuvant therapy for stage IB-IIIA NSCLC.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the relapse rate

    Measured: 30 months

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted15 Feb 2012 (estimated)
  2. Study startAug 2011
  3. Primary completionDec 2017 (estimated)
  4. Study completionDec 2020 (estimated)

Why it stopped: Few patients would like to participate ,since CIK cell transfusion was a new treatment and its efficacy was doubted.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Autologous CIK Transfusion plus Chemotherapy and chemotherapy alone in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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 9 Dec 2013. 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 China. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

the relapse rate (time frame: 30 months). 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 9 Dec 2013.
