NCT00131586
Cisplatin is a widely used anti-tumor agent for the treatment of testicular and ovarian cancers. Carboplatin is used extensively for small cell, non small cell lung cancer and ovarian cancer. Oxaliplatin has recently been approved in the United States (US) for treatment of colorectal cancer. A large portion (in the range of 65% to 98%) of cisplatin in the blood plasma was bound to protein within a day after intravenous administration. The binding of cisplatin and other analogues to proteins and enzymes is generally believed to be the cause of several severe side effects such as ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. The interactions between platinum based chemotherapy drugs and proteins is proposed to play important roles in both drug activity and toxicity. Therefore, a better understanding of the molecular mechanism of platinum-protein interactions may have an impact on optimization of strategies for treatment. The objective is to develop novel approaches and techniques to provide detailed mechanistic, kinetic and high-resolution structural information on the binding of platinum analogues to blood proteins, and to improve treatment efficacy and reduce side effects.
NCT02688686
The purpose of this Phase I/II study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dendritic cells(DC) vaccine combined with cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells in patients with Advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer with bone metastases. Experimental DC was transfected Ad5 vector coding mRNAs including suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) 1, MUC1 and Survivin,are used for DC-based immunotherapy. Based on the results of our previously preclinical study with DC vaccine combined with CIK cells, the investigators plan to perform the clinical trial.
