A Prospective, Open Phase I Study to Investigate the Tolerability and Efficacy of Administering ALECSAT to Prostate Cancer Patients - a First Dose in Man Study
In Brief
A Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating ALECSAT for Hormone-refractory Prostate Cancer. Completed, enrolled 13 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study is a phase I study of a new cell based prostate cancer therapy (ALECSAT). In this therapy specific cells from the patient's own immune system are isolated, activated and re-administered to the patient to boost a specific immune response against the cancer cells. The aim of the study is to show safety and tolerability for this type of therapy. It is the hypothesis that the cells administered during the therapy will attack the tumour cells and in this way stop or slow down the progression of disease.
