Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
It has been reported that the immune status of patients with cancer were suppressed, especially those after surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy. Thus, immunotherapy may decrease the recurrence rate after surgery. CIK cells transfusion has been reported as an effect therapy in advanced cancers. In another retrospective study, investigators found that adjuvant CIK therapy would prolong the disease-free survival (DFS) for colorectal cancer patients. The purpose of this study is to determine wether adjuvant immunotherapy with CIK cells in patients with colon cancer after operation will prolong DFS, and overall survival (OS).

- synchronous CIK group
- description
- After colectomy, patients will accept chemotherapy combined with cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK) therapy synchronously for 6 months. For CapeOx regimen: 3×109 CIK cells on days 1-3; Oxaliplatin 130mg/m2 on day 7; Capecitabine 1000mg/m2 twice daily on days 7-20; Repeat every 3 weeks for 6-8 cycles. For mFolfox6 regimen: Oxaliplatin 85mg/m2 IV over 2 hours on day 1; Leucovorin 400mg/m2 IV over 2 hours on day 1; 5-FU 400mg/m2 IV bolus on day 1, then 2400mg/m2 IV continuous infusion over 46-48 hous; 3×109 CIK cells on days 9-11; Oxaliplatin 85mg/m2 IV over 2 hours on day 15; Leucovorin 400mg/m2 IV over 2 hours on day 15; 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) 400mg/m2 IV bolus on day 15, then 2400mg/m2 IV continuous infusion over 46-48 hours; Repeat every 4 weeks for 5-6 cycles.
