Using NV-001 vaccine to treat advanced solid tumors

Official title: A Phase I Study to Explore the Safety and Efficacy of NV-001 in the Treatment of Advanced Solid Tumors

Run by Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences · NCT06051760 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study is testing a new vaccine made from patients' own tumor tissues to see if it can safely help people with advanced solid tumors who haven't had success with other treatments.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include patients with advanced, non-surgically resectable solid tumors who have progressed on or are intolerant to prior treatments.

Probably not a fit

Patients with resectable tumors or those who have not yet undergone any standard treatment may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a single-center, open, dose-escalation Phase I clinical study aimed at evaluating the safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy, and immunogenicity of NV-001, a hybrid-membrane-based tumor vaccine, in patients with advanced solid tumors. Participants will receive vaccines tailored from their tumor tissues, with various doses tested to gather initial safety and efficacy data. The study focuses on patients who have not responded to standard treatments or are unable to tolerate them.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new immunotherapy option for patients with advanced solid tumors.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies using tumor vaccines have shown promise, indicating potential for success with this novel approach.

* have an expected survival of more than 12 weeks.
* the patient understands and complies with the study protocol and has signed the appropriate Informed Consent Form (ICF), which must be signed prior to the study procedure. 11. for patients of childbearing potential, the patient must be able to understand and comply with the study protocol.
* For patients of childbearing potential: Patients should agree to use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 90 days after the last dose of study treatment, including double-barrier contraception, condoms, contraceptive pills or injectables, and intrauterine devices (IUDs). Male patients should agree to avoid sperm donation.

Exclusion Criteria:

* has received radiotherapy within 14 days prior to the first dose.
* has received a live or live attenuated vaccine within 30 days prior to the first dose.
* use of immunosuppressive drugs currently or within 14 days prior to the first dose.
* has had major surgery within 28 days or non-study related minor surgery within 7 days prior to the first dose.
* the patient has a history of allergic or hypersensitivity reactions to any of the components of NV-001.
* female patients who are breastfeeding or have a positive serum pregnancy test at the time of the screening visit.
* insufficient biopsy to complete the experiment
* any Grade 4 immune-related AE (irAE) on prior immunotherapy (patients with endocrine disorders receiving replacement therapy or experiencing asymptomatic elevations in serum amylase or lipase are eligible for enrollment), any irAE on prior immunotherapy that resulted in permanent discontinuation of therapy, or any Grade 3 irAE within ≤ 6 months prior to initiation of treatment.
* prior toxicity from antineoplastic therapy that remains at NCI-CTCAE ≥ Grade 2 (except for alopecia, vitiligo, and experimental indications of Grade 2 or higher as defined in the Inclusion Criteria); subjects with neurotoxicity ≥ Grade 2 may be eligible for enrollment at the discretion of the Investigator; subjects with irreversible toxicity may be eligible for enrollment at the discretion of the Investigator.
