Injection of HS-IT101 for advanced solid tumors

Single Arm, Phase I Clinical Study of HS-IT101 Injection in the Treatment of Advanced Solid Tumors

This study is testing a new treatment using patients' own immune cells to see if it can help people with advanced solid tumors feel better.

Quick facts

• Phase: PHASE1
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 44 (estimated)
• Ages: 18 Days to 75 Days
• Sex: All
• Sponsor: Qingdao Sino-Cell Biomedicine Co., Ltd. (industry)
• Drugs / interventions: cyclophosphamide, fludarabine

• Trial ID: NCT06342336 on ClinicalTrials.gov

What this trial studies

This interventional study evaluates the effectiveness of HS-IT101, an adoptive cell therapy using autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), in treating patients with advanced solid tumors. Participants will undergo a lymphodepletion regimen with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide before receiving the TIL infusion, followed by interleukin-2 (IL-2) administration. The study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of this treatment approach in a single-arm, open-label format.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 75 with histologically confirmed advanced solid tumors and specific measurable lesions.

Not a fit: Patients with non-resectable tumors or those who have received recent local therapies may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

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

How similar studies have performed: Other studies utilizing adoptive cell therapy approaches have shown promising results, indicating potential for success in this novel treatment.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with any of the following criteria will not be allowed to participation:
