Intratumoral injection of GM103 for advanced solid tumors
Official title: A Phase I/II, Open-label, Dose-escalation With Expansion Study of GM103 Via Intratumoral Injection, Alone and in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Adult Patients With Locally Advanced, Unresectable, Refractory and/or Metastatic Solid Tumors
Run by GeneMedicine Co., Ltd. · NCT06265025 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing a new virus treatment called GM103, alone and with another drug, to see if it can help people with advanced solid tumors that are hard to treat.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and over with locally advanced, unresectable, refractory, and/or metastatic solid tumors that are accessible for biopsy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with tumors that are not accessible for injection or those who do not meet the inclusion criteria 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 evaluates the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor efficacy of GM103, an oncolytic virus, administered alone and in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with locally advanced, unresectable, refractory, and/or metastatic solid tumors. The trial is divided into three parts: Part A and B focus on GM103 as a monotherapy, while Part C assesses its efficacy in combination with pembrolizumab. The study aims to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) based on safety profiles and to evaluate anti-tumor responses using imaging techniques. Participants will undergo tumor biopsies and imaging assessments to monitor disease progression and treatment response.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with difficult-to-treat solid tumors.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies using oncolytic viruses have shown promising results, indicating potential for success with this approach.
