Super1 TCR-T for NY-ESO-1–positive advanced solid tumors
Official title: An Open-label, Phase I Clinical Trial of Autologous T Cells Transduced With NY-ESO-1 Antigen-specific High-affinity T Cell Receptors in NY-ESO-1-positive Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
Run by Guangzhou FineImmune Biotechnology Co., LTD. · NCT06942143 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This trial tests whether a single infusion of Super1 TCR-T can help people with advanced sarcoma, lung cancer, or melanoma whose tumors are HLA-A*02 positive and express NY-ESO-1.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults (18–75) with advanced sarcoma, lung cancer, or melanoma who have failed first-line therapy, are HLA-A*02 positive, have NY-ESO-1 IHC ≥20%, ECOG 0–1, and meet specified laboratory and cardiac criteria.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who are not HLA-A*02, whose tumors lack significant NY-ESO-1 expression, who have poor performance status, active uncontrolled comorbidities, recent antineoplastic therapy, or inadequate labs are unlikely to benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This was a Phase I, open-label, single-center dose-escalation (3+3) trial of Super1 TCR-T in patients with advanced solid tumors. After consent, participants underwent HLA genotyping and tumor immunohistochemistry, and only HLA-A*02 patients with NY-ESO-1 IHC ≥20% proceeded. Eligible patients (ECOG 0–1, measurable disease per RECIST 1.1, adequate labs and cardiac function) received a single autologous Super1 TCR-T infusion following a washout from prior antineoplastic therapy. The primary focus was safety and tolerability with dose escalation to define a recommended dose level.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could produce tumor responses or durable control for a subset of antigen-positive, HLA-A*02 patients who have exhausted first-line options.
How similar studies have gone: Prior early-phase TCR-T programs targeting NY-ESO-1 have produced objective responses in sarcoma and melanoma cohorts, though outcomes have varied across studies.
