Thymalfasin-based PRaG Mode for Advanced Refractory Solid Tumors

Overview

This is an open-label, single-arm, Phase II investigator-initiated trial of precise thymalfasin-regulated therapy combined with hypofractionated radiotherapy, PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor sequential GM-CSF for treatment of advanced refractory solid tumors.

Description

One cycle of activation cycle includes： Loading dose with thymalfasin was administrated based on the absolute number of T lymphocytes.

Radiotherapy (5 or 8Gy three fractions)was administrated to a metastatic lesion.

GM-CSF 200ug was subcutaneous injected for seven days from the first day of radiotherapy PD-1/L1 inhibitor was intravenous injected within one week after radiotherapy.

At least two activation cycles were administrated. Then maintenance treatment includes： Loading dose with thymalfasin was administrated based on the absolute number of T lymphocytes.

GM-CSF 200ug was subcutaneous injected for seven days. PD-1/L1 inhibitor was intravenous injected.
