Chemotherapy Combined With CIK Treating Colon Cancer

March 14, 2017 updated by: Hao Peng, China Meitan General Hospital

Clinical Efficacy of Chemotherapy Combined With Cytokine-induced Killer in Treatment of Patients With Colon Cancer

Cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK) is an auxiliary antitumor treatment. The investigators aim to evaluate the clinical efficacy of chemotherapy combined with CIK in the treatment of postoperative colorectal cancer patients. And to provide useful reference for the clinical application of CIK in colorectal cancer patients.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Over the past decade, advances in combination chemotherapy regimens for colorectal cancer have led to significant improvement in progression-free and overall survival. Cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK) is an auxiliary antitumor treatment. Research has demonstrated the median overall survival (OS) in patients received CIK combined with chemotherapy (5-Fluorouridine, leucovorin and oxaliplatin [FOLFOX4] plan) was significantly increased compared with that in patients received chemotherapy alone. Furthermore, there was a trend toward superior progression-free survival time (PFS) in patients received CIK combined with chemotherapy compared with that in patients received chemotherapy alone. The investigators aim to evaluate the clinical efficacy of chemotherapy (FOLFOX4) combined with CIK in the treatment of postoperative colorectal cancer patients. And to provide useful reference for the clinical application of CIK in colorectal cancer patients.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
