    iNeo-Vac-T01 group

    iNeo-Vac-T01

    Biological: iNeo-Vac-T01

Interventions

  • BiologicaliNeo-Vac-T01

    iNeo-Vac-T01 Injection is an individually customized tumor neoantigen-specific T cell injection. DNA and RNA sequencing is performed on the tumor tissue of each subject to analyze and predict the tumor neoantigens presented by tumor cells. Meanwhile, the subject's own peripheral blood is collected, and neoantigen-specific T cells are obtained through isolation and culture, then reinfused into the subject. These specific T cells recognize and kill tumor cells expressing the corresponding neoantigens, thereby achieving the goal of inhibiting tumor growth.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Feasibility:Ratio of patients receiving iNeo-Vac-T01 infusion to total enrolled patients

    Ratio of patients receiving iNeo-Vac-T01 infusion to total enrolled patients.

    Time frame: 36months

  2. Safety and tolerable dose

    Number of subjects with adverse events and/or dose-limiting toxicities in accordance with the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.0, which serves as an indicator for evaluating the safety and tolerable dose of iNeo-Vac-T01 injection, with an observation period of approximately 6 months during the dose-escalation phase.

    Time frame: 36 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall Response Rate (ORR)

    Evaluation of overall response (OR) based on changes in target lesions per RECIST v1.1, including Complete Response (CR, proportion of patients with disappearance of all target lesions) and Partial Response (PR, proportion of patients with a ≥30% reduction in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions).

    Time frame: 36 months

  2. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    Time from the date of the first iNeo-Vac-T01 injection infusion to the date of disease progression or death due to any cause, with an evaluation period of 3 years.

    Time frame: 36 months

  3. Neoantigen-specific T-cell immune response

    Detection of the secretion level of specific TNF-γ in peripheral blood of subjects by ELISpot assay, mainly for observing specific T-cell responses, with an evaluation period of 6 months.

    Time frame: 6 months

  4. T-cell subset analysis

    Proportions of CD8+, CD4+ and other T-cell subsets within T cells, detected by flow cytometry, mainly for assessing the immune status of patients, with an evaluation period of 6 months.

    Time frame: 6 months

  5. Cytokines analysis

    Changes in interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in peripheral blood, with an evaluation period of 6 months.

    Time frame: 6 months
