NCT ID: NCT06395844

Last Updated: 2024-05-02

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: RECRUITING
• Clinical Phase: PHASE1/PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 28 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2024-05-01
• Study Completion Date: 2026-12-31

Brief Summary

The goal of this type of clinical trial study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of metabolic remodeling nature killer cells as neoadjuvant therapy in newly diagnosed patients with advanced ovarian cancer

Detailed Description

Peripheral blood will be collected from a vein of arm. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMc) will be isolated and purified for NK manufacturing. The addition of key metabolic molecules in the medium remodeled the metabolic network of NK cells, significantly reduced the aging phenomenon of NK cells in the culture process, improved the cell activity of NK cells and enhanced the cytotoxicity of NK cells. After 14 days cultivation, activated METR-NK will be harvested and formulated for clinical administration.

Conditions

Ovarian Cancer

Study Design

• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

METR-NK cell（metabolic remodeling nature killer cells）

Intraperitoneal allogeneic METR-NK cells infusion ： Dilute 200 mL of METR-NK cells in 1500 mL of 0.9% saline solution at 37°C. The minimum amount of METR-NK cells infused each time should be no less than 7.5×10\^7 cells per kilogram. Continuous infusion for 2 days constitutes one course, with 4 courses, with 13-day interval between each course

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

METR-NK cell(Metabolic Remodeling Nature Killer Cells)

Intervention Type: DRUG
