About this study

Official title: Chemotherapy Combined Autologous Cytokine-induced Killer Cells in Naive Stage IV EGFR-wild Type Lung Adenocarcinoma: A Prospective, Randomised, Open, Multicenter Phase Ⅱ Study

This is a prospective, randomized, open, multicenter phase Ⅱ study to evaluate the efficacy of cytokine-induced killer cells combined chemotherapy in stage Ⅳ naive EGFR wild-type lung adenocarcinoma.

Read the detailed description

There is still no great improvement in advanced EGFR wild-type lung adenocarcinoma although great progress was made in treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. It's necessary to explore the treatment mode of this kind of patients. As the progress was made in tumor immunity and immunotherapy, more and more cancer therapists accept the treatment model of chemotherapy combined immunotherapy. And now chemotherapy combined autologous CIK cells is one kind of common treatment model in some countries. Investigators try to evaluate the efficacy and safety of this kind of treatment model in patients with stage Ⅳ naive EGFR wild-type lung adenocarcinoma.

Being tested
CIK, chemotherapy
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CIKBiological

    Also called autologous cytokine-induced killer cells

    platinum combined doublets: Paclitaxel 175mg/m2 D1, or Docetaxel75mg/m2 D1, or Pemetrexed Disodium 500mg/m2,D1;combined cisplatin 25mg/m2,D1-3 or carboplatin AUC=5, D1. After 3 or 4 days of chemotherapy, about 5×109 autologous cytokine-induced killer cells are transfused into the vein of patients in one hour.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. overall survival time

    overall survival time aims at from date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, up to 36 months

    Measured: from the day of randomization to the day of death, up to 36 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. time to progression

    time to progression points to from date of randomization until the date of first documented progression, up to 24 months

    Measured: from the day of randomization to the day of first detecting progression, up to 24 months

  2. objective response rate

    the partion of overall remission in total proportion

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CIK and chemotherapy in people with Lung Adenocarcinoma, run by Henan Cancer Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 13 inclusion and 11 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 12 May 2021. 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 China. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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: As there are so many clinical trials in progress and the number of patients enrolled limited.). 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?

overall survival time (time frame: from the day of randomization to the day of death, up to 36 months). 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 NCT02621333, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 12 May 2021.
