About this study

Official title: A Clinical Study of Safety, Immunogenicity and Preliminary Efficacy of mKRAS Antigen-Loaded eDCs (CAT-101) Monotherapy or Plus Tislelizumab (Anti-PD-1 mAb) in KRAS-G12C/D/R/V-Mutated Advanced Pancreatic Cancer and Other Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity and preliminary efficacy of engineered dendritic cells(eDCs)loaded with mKRAS antigen (CAT-101) alone or in combination with Tislelizumab (anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody) among participants with KRAS-G12C/D/R/V mutated advanced pancreatic cancer and other solid tumors.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of this study is to systematically evaluate the safety profile, immunogenicity, and preliminary clinical efficacy of mKRAS antigen-loaded engineered dendritic cells (eDCs, designated as CAT-101), administered either as monotherapy or in combination with Tislelizumab (an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody), in patients with KRAS-G12C/D/R/V-mutated advanced pancreatic cancer and other refractory solid tumors. Secondary objectives include exploring the correlation between treatment-induced immune responses and clinical outcomes, as well as characterizing the optimal administration regimen for this combination therapy.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Adverse events

    Adverse events defined as the number of participants with adverse events according to CTCAE v5.0.

    Measured: up to 24 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Objective Response Rate

    The proportion of patients achieving a predefined reduction in tumor burden as assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1). Responses are categorized as complete response (CR, disappearance of all target lesions) or partial response (PR, ≥30% reduction in the sum of target lesion diameters), with ORR calculated as the percentage of patients with CR or PR relative to the total evaluable cohort.

    Measured: up to 24 months

  2. Immunogenicity of eDC-KRAS vaccine

    Measure vaccine-induced immune response (e.g., antigen-specific T-cell/cytokine responses /lymphocyte subsets changes).

    Measured: up to 24 months

  3. Rate of MRD Clearance

    The percentage of patients who achieve minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity following treatment, defined as the absence of detectable tumor-specific biomarkers (e.g., circulating tumor DNA, tumor-associated antigens) or malignant cells in peripheral blood, bone marrow, or other relevant biological samples, using a validated, high-sensitivity detection assay.

    Measured: up to 24 months

  4. Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    The percentage of patients whose disease is controlled, encompassing those with complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and stable disease (SD, no significant increase or decrease in target lesion size per RECIST v1.1 criteria) for a minimum of the predefined evaluation period. DCR reflects the treatment's ability to inhibit tumor progression in the evaluable patient population.

    Measured: up to 24 months

  5. Duration of Relief

    The time interval from the first documentation of a clinically meaningful reduction in cancer-related symptoms (e.g., pain, fatigue, dyspnea) to the recurrence of symptoms or initiation of subsequent anti-tumor therapy. Symptom assessment is based on validated patient-reported outcome (PRO) scales or clinician-administered symptom rating tools, with relief defined by a predefined threshold of symptom improvement.

    Measured: up to 24 months

  6. Progress-Free Survival (PFS)

    The time from treatment initiation to the first documentation of tumor progression (per RECIST v1.1) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. PFS is measured using standardized imaging assessments performed at predefined time points and is a key endpoint reflecting the treatment's ability to delay disease progression.

    Measured: up to 24 months

  7. Overall Survival (OS)

    The time from treatment initiation to death from any cause. OS is a definitive endpoint that evaluates the treatment's impact on patient survival, with follow-up conducted until patient death or the end of the study's observation period.

    Measured: up to 24 months

  8. Tumor Markers Changes

    The dynamic alterations in the levels of tumor-associated serological or tissue biomarkers (e.g., CA 19-9, CEA, CA 125) measured at baseline and at predefined post-treatment time points. Changes are quantified as the percentage reduction or increase from baseline, with a predefined threshold (e.g., ≥50% reduction) used to define a clinically significant change. These data are analyzed to explore correlations with clinical response and disease progression.

    Measured: up to 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing eDC-KRAS vaccine and Tislelizumab in people with Advanced Solid Tumor, run by Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Feb 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Adverse events (time frame: up to 24 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 9 Feb 2026.
