SINGLE_GROUP
Arm && Interventions
GroupInterventionDescription
The investigational drug into the Intratumoral administrationMSC11FCDThe investigational drug in the amount of 1x10\^7, 3x10\^7cells per dose into the tumor or the tumor removal site using a syringe during surgery
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum tolerated dose (MTD)after treatment discontinuation for approximately 1 years

Assessment of the maximum tolerated dose based on the 3+3 method

* Blood concentrations of 5-FC and 5-FU(Day 1, Day 3, Day 7)

* MSC11FCD concentrations (MSCCD detection) (Day 0, 3months, 6months, 12months)

Number Of Adverse Events related to the treatmentBaseline, Day0, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months

Evaluate the number of adverse event related to the treatment according to CTCAE V4.0 during the trial (including clinically significant changes in physical examination, radiographic images, safety lab tests, vital signs)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall Survival improvement (OS)Study entry through the end of the study, up to 12 months

OS is defined as the time from the date of MSC injection to the date of death due to any cause.

Progression Free Survival (PFS)Study entry through the end of the study, up to 12 months

The progress-free survival analysis shall be based on the RANO criteria.

Tumor assessment in regard to the investigational drug based on the RANO criteriaAt Baseline, 1month, 3months, 6months, 12months

Assess the treatment groups participating in this clinical trial based on the RANO criteria.

Compare and present the disease control rates by calculating the ratio of the number of subjects responding to treatment (complete response: CR, partial response: PR, stable disease: SD) among the treatment groups and control group assessed based on the RANO criteria.

Clinical efficacy assessmentAt Baseline, 1month, 3months, 6months, 12months
