Overview

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of personalized mRNA vaccine iNeo-Vac-R01 in combination with first-line treatment in subjects with advanced digestive system neoplasms.

Description

This is a single-center, open-label, single-arm clinical study of personalized mRNA vaccine iNeo-Vac-R01 in combination with first-line treatment in subjects with advanced digestive system neoplasms.

  2. Subjects must have one of the histologically- or cytologically-confirmed advanced (locally advanced or metastatic) digestive system neoplasms, have measurable disease at study entry defined by RECIST v1.1.

  8. For women of childbearing potential: having a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 7 days prior to study initiation, agreement to remain abstinent or use contraceptive measures during the treatment period.
  9. For men: agreement to remain abstinent or use contraceptive measures during the treatment period.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Subjects with cancer requiring anti-tumor treatment within the 5 years prior to enrollment in the study (except stage I prostate cancer, cervical cancer in situ, breast cancer in situ, papillary thyroid cancer and non-melanoma skin cancer that have been treated).
  2. Subjects who received major surgery, or had obvious traumatic injury or long-term untreated wounds or fractures within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of iNeo-Vac-R01.
  3. Subjects whose sequencing data was found that there are no new antigens available for individualized immunotherapy after analysis.
  4. Subjects who prepare to undergo or have previously received bone marrow transplantation, allogeneic organ transplantation, or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Subjects who receive other anti-tumor treatments within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of iNeo-Vac-R01, including surgical treatment, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, endocrine therapy, immunotherapy, biological therapy, interventional therapy, or other clinical trial related treatments.
  5. Subjects who need to use immunosuppressants, or systemic or absorbable local glucocorticoids therapy to achieve immunosuppressive effects and continue to use them within 7 days before the first administration (excluding those with daily doses of glucocorticoids less than 10mg of prednisone or doses of other therapeutic glucocorticoids equal to 10mg of prednisone).
  6. Subjects with symptomatic or untreated central nervous system metastases, except those underwent complete resection and/or radiotherapy and proven to be stable or improved (confirmed to be stable or improved for at least 4 weeks before the first dose of iNeo-Vac-R01 by CT or MRI, with no evidence of brain edema and no need for glucocorticoids or anticonvulsants.
  7. Subjects who received other vaccines within 4 weeks before the first dose of iNeo-Vac-R01, and are expected to receive other vaccines during treatment period of the study or within 60 days after the last dose of iNeo-Vac-R01.
  8. Subjects who have an active infection or uncontrollable infection requiring systemic treatment, including fungi, bacteria, viruses, or other infections; subjects with active tuberculosis;
  9. Subjects with positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and/or positive hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) and positive hepatitis B virus DNA titer detection greater than normal range; positive hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody and HCV RNA detection greater than normal range; positive human immunodeficiency virus antibody; positive treponema pallidum-specific antibody.
  10. Subjects with autoimmune diseases or immune deficiencies treated with immunosuppressive drugs, except vitiligo, type 1 diabetes, autoimmune hypothyroidism requiring hormone treatment and psoriasis not requiring systemic treatment; known history of primary immunodeficiency.
  11. Subjects with cardiocerebrovascular events: previously or currently heart valve disease >/= grade 3, heart failure within 8 weeks before the first dose of iNeo-Vac-R01 (New York Heart Association [NYHA] cardiac function >/= grade II, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, stroke, transient ischemic attack, cardiac surgery (including coronary artery bypass grafting or percutaneous coronary intervention) within 8 weeks before the first dose of iNeo-Vac-R01, concomitant severe electrocardiogram abnormalities (such as ventricular flutter, ventricular fibrillation, multiform ventricular tachycardia, sick sinus syndrome, third degree atrioventricular block without pacemaker treatment, QTc >/= 480ms, and other conditions evaluated by the investigators as severe abnormalities), hypertension with poor drug control (systolic blood pressure >/= 160mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure >/= 100mmHg), or other cardiocerebrovascular diseases that have been evaluated by the investigators as unsuitable for participation in this trial.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
