Cytokine-induced Killer Cell Immunotherapy for Surgical Resected Stage III Colorectal Cancer Patients After Chemotherapy

Phase 3
Conditions
Stage III Colon Cancer
Interventions
Procedure: Radical surgery
Drug: Adjuvant chemotherapy
Biological: Cytokine-induced killer cell immunotherapy
Registration Number
NCT02280278
Lead Sponsor
Sun Yat-sen University
Brief Summary

We hypothesize through this randomized, prospective, single center adjuvant study, that cytokine-induced killer cell in patients with stage III colon cancer can improve survival in this patient population over control. Stage III colon cancer patients can benefit most from adjuvant chemotherapy, but the 5 year survival rate is still around 60%. We wish CIK cell therapy can improve the survival rate of stage III colon cancer patients.
