Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 75 with advanced malignant solid tumors who have failed standard treatment options.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with active herpes simplex virus infections or those who have received other investigational drugs within 4 weeks prior to the study may not benefit from this trial.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This Phase 1 open-label clinical trial aims to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of VG2025, a recombinant human IL12/15 dual-regulated oncolytic HSV-1 injection, in patients with advanced malignant solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The study will utilize a dose-escalation design to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). Participants will be monitored for dose-limiting toxicities over a 4-week evaluation period following the initial treatment.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced solid tumors that are resistant to conventional therapies.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is novel, similar studies using oncolytic viruses have shown promising results in treating solid tumors.
