ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05394714
What this study is testing
What is Magicell-NK contains NK cells suspended in 100 mL normal saline?
Magicell-NK contains NK cells suspended in 100 mL normal saline is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for colon cancer stage i.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a Phase I, open-label study to explore the safety profile and to find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum feasible dose (MFD) of Magicell-NK in subjects diagnosed with stage I or stage IIa colon cancer post resection from a single site in Taiwan. During this study, 3 dose levels of Magicell-NK will be tested with a 3+3 design to determine the MTD/MFD: Cohort 1, low dose (2×10\^8 cells), Cohort 2, middle dose (6×10\^8 cells), and Cohort 3, high dose (12\~18 ×10\^8 cells).
