About this study

Official title: Phase I Clinical Study of Autologous CIK Cell Immunotherapy Combination With PD-1 Inhibitor and Chemotherapy in the First-line Treatment of IIIB/IIIC/IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This prospective, unicentric, open-labe phase I study is to evaluate the effects of autologous cytokine-induced killer cell immunotherapy combination with PD-1 inhibitor and chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of IIIB/IIIC/IV non-small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

In the non-squamous NSCLC, patients received sintilimab Injection (PD-1 inhibitor) 200mg, d1; pemetrexed injection 500mg/m2, d1; carboplatin injection AUC 5, d1; CIK cells venous re-transfusion >=1x10^10, d14; Q3W, for 4 cycles. Then sintilimab and pemetrexed maintenance treatment for 2 years. In the squamous NSCLC, patients received sintilimab Injection (PD-1 inhibitor) 200mg, d1; liposome paclitaxel injection 135mg/m2, d1; carboplatin injection AUC 5, d1; CIK cells venous re-transfusion >=1x10^10, d14; Q3W, for 4 cycles. Then sintilimab maintenance treatment for 2 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    ORR was calculated by the percentage of patients with a confirmed complete (CR) or partial response (PR).

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CIK cell, Sintilimab Injection and Pemetrexed in people with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and First-line Treatment, run by Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and 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 12 inclusion and 18 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 7 Jul 2020. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Xiubao Ren, MD. PhD. (86-22-23340123 ext. 3173, liangcoh@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective response rate (ORR) (time frame: 2 years). 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 NCT03987867, 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 7 Jul 2020.
