Combining Oncolytic Adenovirus with PD-1 Inhibitors for Advanced Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

Observation of the Efficacy and Safety of Oncolytic Adenovirus Injection Combined With Programmed Death Receptor Inhibitors in Treatment of Advanced Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma : a Single Center, Prospective, Case Registration Study

Observational Tianjin Medical University Second Hospital · NCT06031636

This study is testing if a new virus treatment combined with PD-1 inhibitors can help people with advanced malignant pleural mesothelioma who didn't respond to previous PD-1 treatments feel better and improve their quality of life.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of Oncolytic Adenovirus H101 in combination with PD-1 inhibitors in patients with advanced malignant pleural mesothelioma who have previously shown resistance to PD-1 inhibitors. It involves monitoring clinical symptoms and analyzing the effectiveness of this combination therapy. The study also aims to explore factors influencing the reversal of immune resistance in these patients and assess the overall quality of life following treatment.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18-75 with late-stage malignant pleural mesothelioma who have failed prior immunotherapy.

Not a fit: Patients with severe comorbidities or contraindications to the study drugs may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could provide a new treatment option for patients with advanced malignant pleural mesothelioma who have not responded to existing therapies.

How similar studies have performed: While the combination of oncolytic viruses and PD-1 inhibitors is a novel approach, similar studies have shown promise in other cancer types, indicating potential for success.
