A Study of the Safety and Tolerance of Three Doses of G17DT in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (CC1C)

August 28, 2014 updated by: Cancer Advances Inc.

Study of the Safety and Tolerance of Three Doses of G17DT in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.

This study was designed to investigate the safety and tolerance of three doses (100µg, 200µg, 500µg) of G17DT for the treatment of patients with colorectal cancer.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Antibody Levels
Time Frame: Through Week 12
Gastrin-17 antibodies are produced as a result of treatment with G17DT and the proportion of patients producing gastrin-17 antibodies was considered to be an appropriate measure of the immunogenicity of the dosing schedule under study.
Through Week 12
Injection Site Reaction
Time Frame: Through Week 12
An examination was performed to assess injection site tolerability at every posttreatment visit.
Through Week 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Intra-gastric pH
Time Frame: Through Week 8
Compare the pre-immunization 24-hour intra-gastric pH with post-immunization profiles.
Through Week 8
