NCT02419677

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether combining of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK) transfusion can prolong survival of patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLM).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Recurrence-free survival

    Recurrence-free survival (RFS) was defined as the time from the date of RFA to the date of recurrence or the date of the last follow-up.

    One year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Adverse events

    4 weeks

Study Arms (2)

RFA alone

OTHER

Patients undergo radiofrequency ablation alone.

Procedure: Radiofrequency ablation

RFA+CIK

EXPERIMENTAL

Autologous cytokine-induced killer cells were transfer via venous one week after RFA.

Procedure: Radiofrequency ablationBiological: Cytokine-induced killer cells

Interventions

Radiofrequency ablation is performed percutaneously under CT/US guidance.

Also known as: RFA
RFA aloneRFA+CIK

The patients received autologous cytokine-induced killer cells transfusion one week after RFA treatment.

Also known as: CIK
RFA+CIK

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma
  • Primary lesions (colorectal cancer) are resected
  • Must have undergone prior complete resection of the primary tumor; liver metastases
  • Must be resectable or accessible for radiofrequency ablation (Five or less lung metastases measuring 5 cm or smaller).
  • Serum bilirubin level of 2.0 mg/dl or less.
  • Performance status of 0 or 1.
  • Expected survival of 1 year or more.
  • Informed consent from the patient.

You may not qualify if:
