Evaluating NK510 for treating advanced non-small cell lung cancer

Official title: First-in-Human Phase I Study of TIGIT-Blocked NK510 Cells in Patients With PD-1 Refractory Advanced NSCLC

Run by Base Therapeutics (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. · NCT06097962 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study is testing a new treatment called NK510 combined with other therapies to see if it can help people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that hasn't responded to previous treatments.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with advanced NSCLC that is not operable or treatable with radiotherapy, and who have specific genetic profiles.

Probably not a fit

Patients with operable NSCLC or those with positive EGFR, ROS1, or ALK mutations may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study assesses the safety and efficacy of NK510 in patients with relapsed and refractory advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Participants will receive NK510 in combination with PD-1 blockade therapies such as Tislelizumab, Atezolizumab, or Sugemalimab. A biopsy is required to confirm tumor PD-L1 expression, and patients must be negative for EGFR, ROS1, and ALK gene mutations. The study aims to evaluate treatment outcomes in this specific patient population.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced NSCLC who have limited treatment alternatives.

How similar studies have gone: While this approach is novel, similar studies targeting PD-L1 expression in NSCLC have shown promising results.

* At least one CT or MRI measurable lesion according to RECIST v1.1.
* ECOG performance status 0-2.
* Expected survival ≥3 months.
* All toxicities from previous anti-tumor therapy (except alopecia and fatigue) resolved to grade 1 (CTCAE v5.0) or baseline; subjects with long-term sequelae from previous therapy (e.g., neuropathy after platinum-based therapy) are acceptable.
* Fertile females must be non-lactating and have a negative serum pregnancy test within 1 week before enrollment; all subjects (male or female) must agree to use contraception from signing informed consent until 6 months after the last NK510 infusion.
* Able to comply with the study protocol and follow-up procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastasis and/or carcinomatous meningitis.
* Active, known or suspected autoimmune diseases (excluding type 1 diabetes, hypothyroidism requiring only hormone replacement therapy, skin diseases not requiring systemic treatment \[e.g., vitiligo, psoriasis, alopecia\] or diseases not expected to recur without external triggers).
* History of severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, including but not limited to: severe cardiac arrhythmia or conduction abnormalities requiring clinical intervention (e.g., ventricular arrhythmia, grade III atrioventricular block); QTc interval \>480 ms on 12-lead ECG at rest; acute coronary syndrome, congestive heart failure, aortic dissection, stroke or other grade ≥3 cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events within 6 months before enrollment; NYHA cardiac function class ≥II or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \<50%; clinically uncontrolled hypertension.
* Blood transfusion, erythropoietin, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) or granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor treatment within 2 weeks before enrollment.
* Systemic treatment with corticosteroids (prednisone \>10 mg/day or equivalent) or other immunosuppressive/immunomodulatory drugs (e.g., thymosin, interleukin-2, interferon) within 2 weeks before enrollment; inhalation or topical corticosteroids are allowed in subjects without active autoimmune diseases.
* Known allergy or intolerance to PD-(L)1 blockade.
* Meeting any of the following laboratory criteria:

  1. Hematology: Neutrophils \<1.5×10⁹/L; Platelets \<75×10⁹/L; Hemoglobin \<90 g/L.

  3. Renal function: Serum creatinine \>1.5×ULN or creatinine clearance \<50 mL/min.
* Any other severe or uncontrollable medical diseases, active infections, physical examination abnormalities, laboratory test abnormalities, mental status changes or mental illnesses that increase subject risk or affect study results (assessed by investigator).
