TROP2-targeted CAR-NK cell therapy for advanced solid tumors
Official title: A Phase 1/2, Open-Label, Dose-Escalation and Dose-Expansion Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Preliminary Anti-tumor Activity of EB-NK-301 (Allogeneic TROP2-Targeted CAR NK Cells) Following Lymphodepleting Chemotherapy in Adults With Advanced or Metastatic TROP2-Expressing Solid Tumors
Run by Beijing Biotech · NCT07589530 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests EB-NK-301, an off-the-shelf CAR-NK cell therapy, in adults with advanced or metastatic TROP2-expressing solid tumors after standard treatments have failed.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults aged 18-75 with advanced or metastatic TROP2-expressing solid tumors that progressed after standard therapy and with measurable disease.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients whose tumors do not respond to CAR-NK cell therapy or who experience intolerable toxicity may not benefit.

What this trial studies
This is a Phase 1/2 interventional trial evaluating safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of EB-NK-301, an allogeneic CAR-NK cell product targeting TROP2. The study uses a two-part design: a dose-escalation phase to identify a recommended Phase 2 dose after lymphodepleting chemotherapy, followed by a dose-expansion phase in selected tumor cohorts. Participants receive lymphodepletion followed by intravenous EB-NK-301 infusions and are monitored for adverse events, including CRS and ICANS, with tumor imaging every 8-12 weeks and biomarker assessments to understand persistence and immune response. Follow-up continues for up to 24 months after first infusion.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience tumor shrinkage or slowed disease progression and longer survival with a novel off-the-shelf immunotherapy.
How similar studies have gone: Early CAR-NK studies in solid tumors have shown potential safety and signs of activity, but results vary by target and tumor type.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age 18 to 75 years at the time of informed consent. * Histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic solid tumor with documented TROP2 expression (per local testing or central confirmation). * Disease progression on, intolerance to, or ineligibility for available standard therapy. * At least one measurable lesion per RECIST 1.1. * ECOG performance status 0 to 1. * Adequate organ function (hematologic, renal, hepatic) within protocol-defined limits. * Life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks. * Willingness to use effective contraception during study participation and for a protocol-defined period after last infusion (if of childbearing potential). * Ability to understand and willingness to sign written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Active central nervous system (CNS) metastases or leptomeningeal disease (unless treated and clinically stable for ≥ 4 weeks). * Prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant or solid organ transplant. * Uncontrolled active infection, including uncontrolled hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or HIV infection. * Active autoimmune disease requiring systemic immunosuppression. * Clinically significant cardiovascular disease (e.g., recent myocardial infarction or stroke within 6 months, uncontrolled arrhythmia). * Receipt of another investigational agent within 2 weeks (or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer) prior to lymphodepleting chemotherapy. * Prior gene-modified cellular therapy within 3 months prior to enrollment. * Systemic corticosteroid therapy \> 10 mg/day prednisone equivalent within 7 days prior to lymphodepletion (excluding physiologic replacement). * Pregnant or breastfeeding.
