About this study

A Study of Metabolically Armed Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes (Meta10-TIL) Therapy for Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label study. This study is indicated for advanced solid tumors. The selections of dose levels and the number of subjects are based on clinical trials of similar products and the outcomes of our preliminary clinical studies.

  1. Main research objectives: To evaluate the safety of metabolically armed tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in patients with advanced solid tumors.
  2. Secondary research objectives: (1)To evaluate the objective response rate (ORR),duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and disease control rate (DCR) of metabolically armed tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (Meta10-TIL) with RECIST V1.1; (2) To evaluate the overall survival (OS); (3) Characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles of Meta10-TILs.

What is being measured

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

  1. Adverse Events(AEs)

    To characterize the safety profile of Meta10-TIL in patients with advanced solid tumor as assessed by incidence of adverse events. Adverse events will be graded by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events(NCI CTCAE) version 5.0.

    Measured: 1 year post Meta10-TIL infusion

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Objective response rate(ORR)

    To evaluate the proportion of participants who have a confirmed partial response (PR) and complete response (CR) per RECIST v1.1 as assessed by the investigator.

    Measured: 1 year post Meta10-TIL infusion

  2. Overall survival(OS)

    OS is measured from the date of the infusion of Meta10-TIL to the date of the subjects' death.

    Measured: 1year post Meta10-TIL infusion

  3. Duration of Response(DOR)

    To evaluate the duration from the time that criteria are met for CR or PR per RECIST v1.1 as assessed by the investigator until disease progression or death due to any cause.

    Measured: 1 year post Meta10-TIL infusion

  4. Progression-free survival(PFS)

    The time from the start of Meta10-TIL treatment for the subjects to the first disease progression or death for any reason.

    Measured: 1 year post Meta10-TIL infusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Metabolically Armed TIL cells in people with Advanced Solid Tumors, run by Anhui Provincial 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 37 inclusion and 18 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Sep 2025. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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 Fanzheng Meng, Ph.D (86+15244606128, mengfz@ustc.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Adverse Events(AEs) (time frame: 1 year post Meta10-TIL infusion). 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 15 Sep 2025.
