Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Label
Cellgram-DC-PC
Arm Description
Cellgram-DC-PC is injected subcutaneously near the inguinal lymph nodes
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
The Measure CTCAE of Safety
The level of Adverse Event (AE) is described in accordance with the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Event (CTCAE) (Version 5.0).
Secondary Outcome Measures
Immune response evaluation (INF-r)
The tumor antigen-specific immune response induced after administration compared to before Investigational Product(IP) administration was confirmed by measuring changes in the secretion of cytokines INF-r in serum (ELISA).
Immune response evaluation (IL-12)
The tumor antigen-specific immune response induced after administration compared to before Investigational Product(IP) administration was confirmed by measuring changes in the secretion of cytokines IL-12 in serum (ELISA).
Measurement of changes in tumor marker test results (PSA)
Changes in tumor marker test results (PSA) are measured at each time point (V4, V5, V6, V7, V8) after administration compared to before (V3) Investigational Product(IP) administration.
