Trial summary

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is one of the most common liver malignancies. Surgical treatment is the first choice. However, for patients without surgical indications, the benefits of conventional chemoradiotherapy are limited. CART is one of the fastest developed treatments in recent years.

About this study

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is one of the most common liver malignancies. Surgical treatment is the first choice. However, for patients without surgical indications, the benefits of conventional chemoradiotherapy are limited. CART is one of the fastest developed treatments in recent years. MUC-1 CART can target abnormal glycosylation of MUC-1 and then killing tumor specifically. Here, investigators intend to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MUC-1 CART in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.

Read the detailed description

Investigators chose MUC-1 positive intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma patients with one measurable lesion at least. After general assessment, MUC-1 CART treatment was given to the participants. Objective remission rate, disease control rate, duration of overall response, progression-free survival, overall survival, drugs related side effects and other endpoints events were recorded and analyzed, to assess the MUC-1 CART could or couldn't effectively control the progress of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing MUC-1 CART cell immunotherapy in people with Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine 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 11 inclusion and 19 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 22 Aug 2018. 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 combined 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.

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 Tingbo Liang, MD PhD (8613666676128, liangtingbo@zju.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease control rate (time frame: Up to approximately 12 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 22 Aug 2018.
