Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

"Immuncell-LC" in aspects of therapeutic efficacy and safety when administered with Nexavar to advanced Hepatocellular carcinoma patients when compared with the control group who did not receive administration of the drug.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

  • primary outcome Compare clinical efficacy of group treated with cell therapeutic Immuncell-LC evaluated by progression free survival with that of untreated group

  • secondary outcome compare clinical efficacy of group treated with Immuncell-LC, a drug for treating advanced hepatocellular carcinoma evaluated by overall survival, disease control rate, changes of Alpha Feto Protein(AFP) figures from baseline to the last observation date and that of untreated group and evaluate adverse reactions, clinical pathological tests and its safety.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
No Intervention: control group

The study subjects randomly assigned to the control group is given Nexavar chemotherapy according to the clinical test plans.

Experimental: Immuncell-LC group

The study subjects assigned to the test group blood is drawn before minimum 2 weeks in order to manufacture the test drug. Test group is compared its progression free survival rate after baseline by administering Nexavar chemotherapy same as control group with Immuncell-LC (10 times).

Drug: Immuncell-LC
intravenous dripping of 200ml(10^9~2x10^10 lymphocytes/60kg adult) for 1 hour
Other Names:
  • Activated T lymphocyte
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. To assess progression-free survival (PFS) [up to 2 years]

      CT, PET-CT, MRI

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. To assess the overall survival (OS) [up to 2 years]

    2. To evaluate the Disease control rate [up to 2 years]

      to determine response rate (CR, PR, SD rate) from the baseline to the late observation date using mRECIST

    3. To assess the changes of Alpha Feto Protein(AFP)figures from baseline to the last observation date [up to 2 years]

      analysing the changes of AFP before and after combination Nexavar plus Immuncell-LC

    4. Number of participants with adverse events [up to 2 years]
