NCT07784777

Brief Summary

This is an open-label, single-arm, dose-escalation Phase I clinical study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic profile, and preliminary efficacy of NK Cell Injection in patients with advanced solid tumors. Eligible participants who have signed written informed consent will be screened and, if qualified, assigned a enrollment number and sequentially assigned to the designated dose group. The study employs a traditional "3+3" dose-escalation design. Each dose group enrolls at least 3 participants, with each participant receiving only one corresponding dose level, until the MTD or RP2D is determined. The study consists of four periods: Screening Period, Treatment Period (including lymphodepleting chemotherapy), Safety Follow-up Period, and Survival Follow-up Period.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT)

    Incidence of DLT assessed during the single-infusion DLT observation period (14 days post single infusion) and the multiple-infusion DLT observation period (first cycle, 21 days). DLT is defined per the protocol-specified DLT criteria.

    Up to 21 days post first infusion

  • Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase II dose (RP2D)

    MTD defined as the highest dose level at which ≤33% of DLT-evaluable participants experience DLT, per protocol-specified dose-escalation rules. RP2D determined based on safety, PK, and preliminary activity across completed dose levels.

    Estimated up to 24 months from first enrollment

  • Incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)

    All-cause AEs and SAEs, including clinically significant laboratory abnormalities, graded per NCI-CTCAE v6.0. Severity classified by CTCAE grade; relationship to study treatment assessed by investigator.

    From first infusion through end of safety follow-up (approximately 30 days after last infusion)

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Objective Response Rate

    Every 6 weeks thereafter up to 24 months.

  • Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to approximately 24 months

  • Duration of Response

    From date of first documented response until the date of first documented progression or death, assessed up to approximately 24 months.

  • Disease Control Rate

    every 6 weeks thereafter up to 24 months

  • Overall Survival (OS)

    From date of first dose until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to approximately 2 years.

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (3)

  • Pharmacokinetic Parameters-Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Up to 21 days post each infusion

  • Immunogenicity

    From baseline (C0D1; pre-dose) to the end-of-treatment visit,up to approximately 24 months.

  • Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax)

    Up to 21 days post each infusion
