Brief summary

This clinical study was planned in order to assess the superiority of INNOCELL Corp. Immuncell-LC in aspects of therapeutic efficacy and safety when administered with Temozolomide to glioblastoma patients when compared with the control group who did not receive administration of the drug.

Detailed description

\<Primary Purpose\> Compare clinical efficacy of group treated with cell theraputic INNOCELL Immuncell-LC evaluated by progression free survival with that of untreated group. \<Secondary Purpose\> Compare clinical efficacy of group treated with INNOCELL Immuncell-LC, a drug for treating glioblastoma evaluated by overall survival, therapy reaction, EORTC QLQ-C30, and Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) and that of untreated group, and evaluate adverse reactions, clinical pathological tests, and its safety.

Interventions

DRUGActivated T lymphocyte(Immuncell-LC)

Efficacy/Effects: Removal of minimal residual cancer after removal of brain tumors and relapse prevention Method of administration and quantity: Test Drug: Per 60kg of average adult body weight, administer 100mg that contains 109\ 2x1010 lymphocytes for one hour intravenously. (Duration of administration can be controlled based on patient conditions)

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progression-free Survival(PFS)From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 46 months.Progression-free survival was assessed locally by investigators on the basis of enhanced MRI was performed approximately 4 weeks after chemoradiotherapy, then at 10, 22, 34 and 46 weeks after randomization, and every 3\ 12 months thereafter during the follow-up phase.

Control Group
The study subjects randomly assigned to the control group is given Temozolomide chemotherapy and radiation therapy for 6 weeks according to the clinical test plans, and then administers Temozolomide only for 6 weeks.

CIK Immunotherapy Group
The study subjects assigned to the test group blood is drawn before minimum 2 weeks in order to manufacture the test drug. Test group is compared its progression free survival rate after surgery by administering Temozolomide chemotherapy and radiation therapy same as control group with Immuncell-LC (14 times).
