About this study

Official title: Open-label, Single Center, Phase Ⅱ Clinical Trial to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Immuncell-LC in the Patients for Refractory Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Immuncell-LC, the adoptive immuntherapeutic agent composed of a CIK cell agent, to treat patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, which are refractory to the 3rd-line chemotherapeutic agents.

All enrolled patients received the 12 times of Immuncell-LC therapy: 8 times in every 1 week and 4 times in every 2 weeks.

Read the detailed description

Stage IV colorectal cancer(CRC) has poor survival rate in spite of the development of chemotherapeutic agents. It is regarded as a standard palliative chemotherapy using with both targeted agents and cytototic chemotherpeutic agents. However, it is still demanding to treat stage IV CRC patients, who are refractory responses in these chemotherapeutics. In addition, patients were suffered from the various adverse events by the repetive cytotoxic chemotherapies.

What participants receive

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

  • Immuncell-LC intravenous infusion using a CIK cell agentBiological

    Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, which is refractory to the 3rd-line chemotherapy are enrolled in this study. Enrolled patients receive a total of 12 times of Immuncell-LC therapy: 8 times in every 1 week and the next 4 times in every 2 weeks. The treatment responses of immuncell-LC are evaluated by radiologic findings (Abdomin-pelvic CT and Chest CT), immune-markers and a selorogic tumor marker (Carcinoembryologic antigen (CEA)) at the 8th week and 17th week. The safety of Immuncell-LC is evaluated by the results of serologic tests, vital signs, ECOG-PS and adverse events. The follow-up period is the 1 year after the enrolled date.

What is being measured

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

  1. the disease control rate (DCR)

    To evaluate the disease control rate (DCR) : complete reponse(CR), partial response(PR), stable disease(SD).

    Measured: 4 months (17 weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Immuncell-LC intravenous infusion using a CIK cell agent in people with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, run by Gangnam Severance Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 10 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 21 Jul 2017. 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 South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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 disease control rate (DCR) (time frame: 4 months (17 weeks)). 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 21 Jul 2017.
