Study summary

This is a prospective, single-center, open-label, real-world clinical study designed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and immunogenicity of Personalized neoantigen-pulsed autologous dendritic cell Injections (ZSNeo-DC)in patients with malignant solid tumors. The study protocol received approval from the institutional review board and ethics committee of Beidaihe Hospital, adhering to ethical guidelines. Written informed consent was obtained from all participants in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. Approximately 100 patients will be enrolled in multiple tumor-specific cohorts which will be independently statistically analyzed. ZSNeo-DC will be manufactured by Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP). Participants will receive seven subcutaneous injections of personalized DCs administered on Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 36, 50, and 64, either as monotherapy or in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors according to routine clinical practice. Tumor response, progression-free survival, overall survival, safety, and antigen-specific immune responses will be evaluated throughout the study.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants meeting any of the following criteria will be excluded:

    1. T-cell-derived malignant tumors.
    2. Previous allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or solid organ transplantation.
    3. Active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Personalized Dendritic Cell Injection

    Participants will receive personalized neoantigen-pulsed autologous dendritic cell Injections administered subcutaneously at a fixed dose of 1×10\^7 cells per injection on Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 36, 50, and 64. Immune checkpoint inhibitors may be administered concomitantly according to routine clinical practice and investigator judgment.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Objective tumor response will be evaluated according to RECIST version 1.1 or other disease-specific response criteria, as applicable.

    Time frame: From first study treatment until 12 months after treatment initiation

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall Survival

    Time frame: From first treatment until death from any cause, assessed up to 24 months.

  2. Disease Control Rate

    Time frame: Up to 12 months.

  3. Best Overall Response

    Time frame: Up to 12 months.

  4. Clinical Benefit Rate

    Time frame: Up to 12 months.

  5. Incidence of Adverse Events

    Adverse events will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), Version 5.0.

    Time frame: From informed consent until 30 days after the last administration of study treatment.

  6. Progression-Free Survival

    Time frame: From first study treatment until disease progression or death, assessed up to 24 months
