About this study

Official title: Recombinant Human Granulocyte-macrophage Colony-stimulating Factor as Adjuvant Immunotherapy in Treating Resectable Stage III Colon Cancer: A Randomized, Placebo-controlled Clinical Trial

This study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of rhGM-CSF as adjuvant immunotherapy for patients with resectable stage III colon cancers.

Read the detailed description

This study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of rhGM-CSF as adjuvant immunotherapy for patients with resectable stage III colon cancers. Patients were randomly assigned to rhGM-CSF group or placebo group and treated with rhGM-CSF or placebo perioperation and during the adjuvant chemotherapy. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the antitumor immune effect of rhGM-CSF before surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy through DFS of 5 years and to observe the safety during the treatment in order to provide evidence for improvement in treating resectable colon cancer patients.

What participants receive

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

  • rhGM-CSFDrug

    rhGM-CSF was injected subcutaneously of 3± 0.3ug/kg/d per day for 5 days before and 2 days after surgery. During adjuvant therapy of XELOX, rhGM-CSF was continuous injected for 6 days when finishing each cycle of chemotherapy (from d15) or stopped when ANC>20.0X109/L.

  • placeboDrug

    Placebo was injected subcutaneously of 3± 0.3ug/kg/d per day for 5 days before and 2 days after surgery. . During adjuvant therapy of XELOX, placebo was continuous injected for 6 days when finishing each cycle of chemotherapy (from d15).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing rhGM-CSF in people with Colon Cancer, run by The Affiliated Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Military Medical Sciences 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 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jan 2016. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xu jianming, M.D. (+861051128358, jmxu2003@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease-free survival(DFS) (time frame: 5 years). 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 20 Jan 2016.
