About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Clinical Trial Study on Autologous Erythrocytes Derived Microparticles Packaging Methotrexate Peritoneal Perfusion in the Treatment of Malignant Ascites

This study makes an observation over the objective response rate of autologous erythrocytes derived microparticles packaging methotrexate peritoneal perfusion and systemic therapy combination in the treatment of malignant ascites. All the participants will randomly receive the treatment of autologous erythrocytes derived microparticles packaging methotrexate peritoneal perfusion and systemic therapy combination or convention drugs peritoneal perfusion and systemic therapy combination.

Read the detailed description

As a drug carrier, erythrocytes have their own advantages, such as high biocompatibility, high immune compatibility, simple structure and easy access. In this study, microparticles released from erythrocytes are used as the carrier of chemotherapy drugs and effectively kill tumor cells in malignant ascites. These microparticles can easily reach the tumor site and bring the drug into tumor cells, which can overcome the two main problems in normal chemotherapy: damage to normal cells and drug resistance of tumor cells.

Being tested
Erythrocytes derived MPs containing MTX, convention drugs
Keywords
Microparticles, Erythrocytes, Methotrexate

What is being measured

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

  1. ORR, Objective Response Rate

    The percentage of subjects with total number of Complete Response (CR) + total number of Partial Response (PR)

    Measured: From assignment of the first subject to 2 months later after the last participant is recruited.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. DCR, Disease Control Rate

    DCR is defined as the percentage of subjects whose best response was not Progressive Disease (PD) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) (= total number of Complete Response (CR) + total number of Partial Response (PR) + total number of Stable Disease (SD)

    Measured: From assignment of the first subject to 2 months later after the last participant is recruited.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Erythrocytes derived MPs containing MTX and convention drugs in people with Malignant Ascites, run by Hui ting Xu,MD 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 9 inclusion and 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jul 2017. 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 combined 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Hui ting Xu (15307176219 ext. 86, 2891533@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ORR, Objective Response Rate (time frame: From assignment of the first subject to 2 months later after the last participant is recruited.). 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 26 Jul 2017.
