About this study

Official title: Intratumoral Genetic Therapy for Lung Cancer

The purpose of this study is to determine the dose that the vaccine can be given safely to patients when injected directly into the lung tumor, without any serious side effects.

Read the detailed description

Primary

  • to determine the safety, toxicity, and Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of autologous dendritic cell-adenovirus chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 21 (CCL21) vaccine administered as an intratumoral injection in treating patients with stage IIIB, IV, or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer

Secondary

  • to determine the biologic and clinical responses to therapy
  • to determine treatment-related toxicity using the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria
  • to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)
  • to monitor patients for evidence of autologous dendritic cell-adenovirus CCL21 vaccine-induced cytokines and antigen-specific immune responses
  • to detect immune responses to tumor-associated antigens and vector
  • to assess patients for objective signs of tumor regression (RECIST criteria)
Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing autologous dendritic cell adenovirus CCL21 vaccine in people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), run by VA Office of Research and Development at 1 site in United States.

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 17 inclusion and 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jan 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 United States. 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 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.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Estimated Primary Completion Date: March 2017 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) (time frame: 28 Days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01574222, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 18 Jan 2018.
