About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Study of MAGE-A4 TCR Gene-Modified T Cells to Treat Malignant Tumors

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical safety and preliminary efficacy of MAGE-A4 TCR Gene-Modified T lymphocytes in the treatment of malignant solid tumor patients, such as malignant melanoma and lung cancer.

Being tested
MAGE-A4 TCR Gene-Modified T Cells

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MAGE-A4 TCR Gene-Modified T CellsBiological

    The study consists of a 2-dose escalation scheme, and the patient receives twice in each dose. The starting dose is 1-3 x 10^9 cells of each TCR gene-modified cells and the second one is 3-8 x 10^9 cells of each TCR gene-modified cells. Two weeks after the first infusion the patient receives the same dose again, followed by infusions of IL-2 for 5 days. Thereafter, the patient receives peptide vaccinations on days 21 and 28.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MAGE-A4 TCR Gene-Modified T Cells in people with Malignant Solid Tumors, run by Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 12 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Dec 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective response rate (time frame: Up to 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Dec 2015.
