Immunotherapy Using Precision T Cells Specific to Multiple Common Tumor-Associated Antigen Combined With Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization for the Treatment of Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

December 30, 2015 updated by: Second Military Medical University

A Controlled Clinic Trial of Immunotherapy Using Precision T Cells Specific to Multiple Common Tumor-Associated Antigen in Combination With Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization in Treating Patients With Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Objectives:

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dendritic cell-precision multiple antigen T cells with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Methods: This study designs a novel therapy using dendritic cell-precision multiple antigen T cells. 60 patients will be enrolled. They are randomly divided into transcatheter arterial chemoembolization group and dendritic cell-precision multiple antigen T cells combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization group. Treatments will be performed every 3 weeks with a total of three periods. The mail clinical indicators are Progression-Free-Survival and Overall Survival.
