Using HV-101 to treat advanced solid tumors

A Phase I/II Clinical Study on the Safety, Tolerability, and Preliminary Efficacy of HV-101 Injection for the Patients With Recurrent or Metastatic Solid Tumors

Phase 1 Interventional Hervor Therapeutics · NCT05868915

This study is testing a new treatment called HV-101 that uses the patient's own immune cells to see if it can help people with advanced solid tumors feel better and improve their treatment results.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of HV-101, a form of tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy, for patients with advanced solid tumors. The approach involves harvesting lymphocytes from the patient's tumor, culturing and amplifying them in the lab, and then reinfusing them back into the patient. Eligible participants will undergo a series of screening tests to ensure they meet the criteria for the trial. The study aims to assess the potential of HV-101 to improve treatment outcomes for patients with refractory solid tumors.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18-75 with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard therapies.

Not a fit: Patients with early-stage tumors or those who are not eligible for tumor resection or biopsy may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced solid tumors that are resistant to standard treatments.

How similar studies have performed: Previous studies utilizing TIL therapy have shown promising results in treating various solid tumors, indicating a potential for success with this approach.
