Trial Outcomes & Findings for Cryotherapy and GM-CSF in Treating Patients With Lung Metastases or Primary Lung Cancer (NCT NCT00514215)

NCT ID: NCT00514215

Last Updated: 2020-03-05

Results Overview

CT-guided biopsy \& Peritumoral GM-CSF. a CR was defined as involution of the prior tumor and/or ablation site to only a thin, non-enhancing scar within the pulmonary parenchyma on enhanced chest CT. A PR was defined as incomplete resolution of an otherwise thoroughly hypovascular resolving ablation zone which had reached a diameter smaller than the original tumor size. Stable disease (SD) reflects no significant change in size of ablation site and/or overall tumor burden, while the standard definition for progressive disease (PD) remains as evidence of neTw or growing tumors.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Days 1 & 32

Population: Patients who had metastatic Renal Cell carcinoma

CT-guided biopsy \& Peritumoral GM-CSF. a CR was defined as involution of the prior tumor and/or ablation site to only a thin, non-enhancing scar within the pulmonary parenchyma on enhanced chest CT. A PR was defined as incomplete resolution of an otherwise thoroughly hypovascular resolving ablation zone which had reached a diameter smaller than the original tumor size. Stable disease (SD) reflects no significant change in size of ablation site and/or overall tumor burden, while the standard definition for progressive disease (PD) remains as evidence of neTw or growing tumors.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Days 1 & 63

Population: only those with metastatic Renal Cell carcinoma

Number of Participants with CT-guided biopsy \& Peritumoral GM-CSF. The number of IFNγ secreting T-cells was measured by a direct EliSpots at 10:1 E:T ratio to define the kinetics of the CTL responses from pre-CI to day 63 post CI.
