  • Patients with a mental disorder that is difficult to control
Show all 19Show fewer
  • Pregnant women, lactating women, and potentially pregnant women
  • Lactating women may be enrolled in the study if they discontinue lactation during the period from trans-plantation to confirmed wound healing.
  • Women of childbearing potential must agree to use the following birth control methods or completely ab-stain from sexual intercourse during the period from consent to participate in the study to the end of study participation.
  • Principal birth control methods: oral contraceptives, intrauterine contraceptive devices including intrauterine luteal hormone-releasing systems, tubal occlusion, and vasectomized partner
  • Supportive birth control methods: condoms and diaphragms
  • The use of principal birth control methods is essential. Supportive birth control methods should not be used alone and must be used together with the principal birth control methods. For oral contraceptives, changes in the birth control methods or other strategies should be considered because it is known that their effect is reduced if they are missed or concomitantly taken with certain types of drugs or dietary supplements.
  • Patients who have participated in another clinical study within 6 months, those who are participating in another clinical study, and those who plan to participate in another clinical study during participation in Study CLS2702-ESO-01

About this study

Official title: A Phase III, Multicenter, Open-label Study to Evaluate the Esophageal Stenosis Inhibition Effects and Safety of CLS2702C/CLS2702D After Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD) in Patients With Superficial Esophageal Cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of esophageal epithelial regenerative treatment by the transplantation of the product, CLS2702C, to the esophageal wound site after extensive ESD for superficial esophageal cancer.

Read the detailed description

This study is a multicenter, single-arm, open-label study of CLS2702C/D in patients who plan to undergo ESD for superficial esophageal cancer.

In this study, the efficacy and safety of CLS2702C (cell sheet) transplanted (applied) to the wound site after ESD using CLS2702D (transplantation device) will be evaluated.

Being tested
CLS2702C/CLS2702D

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of participants without stenosis until 8 weeks after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD)

    Measured: Up to 8 weeks after ESD

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Time to wound healing

    Wound healing is defined as re-epithelized state with no white coat, erosion, or ulcer in the process of healing. The time to wound healing will be assessed endoscopically.

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks after ESD

  2. Number of esophageal balloon dilatations (investigated until wound healing is confirmed)

    Number of esophageal balloon dilatations will be counted.

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

  3. Number of participants reporting one or more adverse events and product deficiencies

    An adverse event is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject who has used the product or received the study treatment, regardless of the causal relationship with the product.

    An adverse event can therefore be any untoward and unintended sign (including abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new disease or worsening of an existing disease) temporally associated with the use of the product or implementation of the study treatment.

    Measured: From day -16 to 24 weeks

  4. Quality of Life (QOL) measured with the EORTC QLQ-C30

    The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer QLQ-C30 is a quality-of-life instrument for use in international clinical trials in oncology. The QLQ-C30 incorporates nine multi-item scales: five functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social); three symptom scales (fatigue, pain, and nausea and vomiting); and a global health and quality-of-life scale.

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

  5. QOL assessed by the EORTC QLQ-OG 25

    EORTC QLQ-OG25 questionnaire is a quality-of-life instrument for use in patients with esophagogastric cancers. The QLQ-OG25 has six scales, dysphagia, eating restrictions, reflux, odynophagia, pain and anxiety.

    Measured: Up to 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing CLS2702C/CLS2702D in people with Superficial Esophageal Cancer, run by CellSeed Inc. at 3 sites in Japan.

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 20 inclusion and 19 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Japan. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Proportion of participants without stenosis until 8 weeks after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) (time frame: Up to 8 weeks after ESD). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 7 Mar 2019.
