Cytokine-induced Killer Cell Immunotherapy for Surgical Resected Stage III Colorectal Cancer Patients After Chemotherapy

November 3, 2014 updated by: Xiao-Jun Wu, Sun Yat-sen University

The Effectiveness and Safety of Adjuvant Cytokine-induced Killer Cell Immunotherapy for Stage III Colorectal Cancer Patients After Chemotherapy

We hypothesize through this randomized, prospective, single center adjuvant study, that cytokine-induced killer cell in patients with stage III colon cancer can improve survival in this patient population over control. Stage III colon cancer patients can benefit most from adjuvant chemotherapy, but the 5 year survival rate is still around 60%. We wish CIK cell therapy can improve the survival rate of stage III colon cancer patients.
