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.

* 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.
