About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Dose-Escalation Phase I Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic Profile, and Preliminary Efficacy of NK Cell Injection in the Treatment of Advanced Solid Tumors

This is an open-label, single-arm, dose-escalation Phase I clinical study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic profile, and preliminary efficacy of NK Cell Injection in patients with advanced solid tumors.

Eligible participants who have signed written informed consent will be screened and, if qualified, assigned a enrollment number and sequentially assigned to the designated dose group.

Read more

The study employs a traditional "3+3" dose-escalation design. Each dose group enrolls at least 3 participants, with each participant receiving only one corresponding dose level, until the MTD or RP2D is determined.

The study consists of four periods: Screening Period, Treatment Period (including lymphodepleting chemotherapy), Safety Follow-up Period, and Survival Follow-up Period.

Each dose group must include at least 1 female participant.
Receives: Biological: NK CELLS

What is being measured

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

  1. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT)

    Incidence of DLT assessed during the single-infusion DLT observation period (14 days post single infusion) and the multiple-infusion DLT observation period (first cycle, 21 days). DLT is defined per the protocol-specified DLT criteria.

    Measured: Up to 21 days post first infusion

  2. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase II dose (RP2D)

    MTD defined as the highest dose level at which ≤33% of DLT-evaluable participants experience DLT, per protocol-specified dose-escalation rules. RP2D determined based on safety, PK, and preliminary activity across completed dose levels.

    Measured: Estimated up to 24 months from first enrollment

  3. Incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)

    All-cause AEs and SAEs, including clinically significant laboratory abnormalities, graded per NCI-CTCAE v6.0. Severity classified by CTCAE grade; relationship to study treatment assessed by investigator.

    Measured: From first infusion through end of safety follow-up (approximately 30 days after last infusion)

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Objective Response Rate

    Proportion of participants with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as best overall response per RECIST 1.1. Responses confirmed by repeat imaging ≥ 4 weeks after first documentation.

    Measured: Every 6 weeks thereafter up to 24 months.

  2. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    Time from first dose to date of first documented disease progression per RECIST 1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: From date of first dose until the date of first documented progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to approximately 24 months

  3. Duration of Response

    Time from first documented CR or PR until the date of first documented progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, among responders.

    Measured: From date of first documented response until the date of first documented progression or death, assessed up to approximately 24 months.

  4. Disease Control Rate

    Proportion of participants with CR, PR, or stable disease (SD) lasting ≥ 8 weeks per RECIST 1.1.

    Measured: every 6 weeks thereafter up to 24 months

  5. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time from first dose to date of death from any cause.

    Measured: From date of first dose until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to approximately 2 years.

  6. Quality of Life- EORTC QLQ-C30 Global Health Status and Functional Scales

    Mean change from baseline in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) global health status/quality of life and functional subscale scores. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better health-related quality of life and functioning.

    Measured: every 6 weeks thereafter,up to approximately 24 months.

  7. Change in Lymphocyte Subsets and Soluble Immune Mediators

    Dynamic changes from baseline in peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets

    Measured: At baseline (C0D1; pre-dose) through end of treatment,up to approximately 24 months.

  8. Quality of Life - EQ-5D-5L Utility Index and Visual Analog Scale

    Mean change from baseline in the EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L) utility index and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores. Utility index scores range from -0.391 to 1.000 (China value set), with higher scores indicating better health-related quality of life. VAS scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better perceived health.

    Measured: every 6 weeks thereafter, up to approximately 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing NK CELLS in people with Advanced Solid Tumors, run by BOE Technology Group Co., Ltd..

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 15 inclusion and 15 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Aug 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.

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?

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?

Contact Ning Li, MD, PhD (8610-87788495, cancergep@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) (time frame: Up to 21 days post first infusion). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 25 Aug 2026.
