Treatment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma with SCG101 TCR-T Cell Therapy

A Phase 1, Multicenter Study of SCG101 in the Treatment of Subjects With Hepatitis B Virus-Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Phase 1 Interventional SCG Cell Therapy Pte. Ltd. · NCT06617000

This study is testing a new treatment called SCG101 for people with liver cancer related to Hepatitis B who haven't had success with other therapies to see if it helps them.

What this trial studies

This Phase I clinical study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of SCG101 monotherapy in patients diagnosed with Hepatitis B Virus-related Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HBV-HCC). The study focuses on patients who have previously undergone standard systemic therapies and meet specific eligibility criteria, including certain HLA types and disease stages. Participants will receive SCG101 treatment, and their responses will be monitored to assess the potential benefits of this innovative therapy.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include patients with histologically confirmed HCC who have received prior systemic therapies and meet specific health criteria.

Not a fit: Patients with a history of other primary cancers, central nervous system metastasis, or poorly controlled hypertension may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with HBV-related HCC who have limited treatment alternatives.

How similar studies have performed: While this approach is novel, similar TCR-T cell therapies have shown promise in other cancer types, indicating potential for success.
