Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18 years) with histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced solid tumors who have exhausted standard therapy or lack viable options, and who have good performance status (ECOG 0-2) and adequate organ function.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with tumors unlikely to respond to this modality or with severe organ dysfunction may not experience benefit.

What this trial studies
This is a Phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation study evaluating the safety and tolerability of combined VSV injection solutions targeting different tumor-related markers, delivered via multiple routes. The study aims to identify the maximum tolerated dose and determine a recommended dose for the next phase, while also exploring preliminary anti-tumor activity and PK/PD characteristics. Eligible participants are adults with confirmed advanced solid tumors who have exhausted standard therapies or are ineligible for them, and who meet defined organ-function and performance status criteria. The trial is conducted at the Cancer Hospital Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences in Langfang, Hebei, with the Cancer Institute and Hospital as the lead sponsor.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience disease control or tumor responses and gain access to an innovative treatment option.
How similar studies have gone: Early-phase trials of oncolytic viruses have shown safety signals and some anti-tumor activity in various cancers; novelty exists in the multi-route, multi-target VSV approach.
