Brief Summary

This is an open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of multiple doses of SapRNA™-MICA/B Tumor Vaccine in patients with advanced solid tumors. Eligible patients will receive the monotherapy with SapRNA™-MICA/B Tumor Vaccine, which will be administered by intramuscular injection on Day 1, Day 14, and Day 28 respectively. Follow-up visits will be performed as scheduled after the end of treatment.

Detailed Description

This is an open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of multiple doses of SapRNA™-MICA/B Tumor Vaccine in patients with advanced solid tumors. The primary study objective is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of a single dose of SapRNA™-MICA/B Tumor Vaccine in patients. Eligible patients will receive the monotherapy with SapRNA™-MICA/B Tumor Vaccine, which will be administered by intramuscular injection on Day 1, Day 14, and Day 28 respectively. Follow-up visits will be performed as scheduled after the end of treatment. The patients will be followed up until disease progression, occurrence of intolerable toxicity, initiation of a new antitumor therapy, withdrawal of informed consent, loss to follow-up, death, or any other protocol-specified conditions for which the treatment should be discontinued, whichever earlier. Throughout the study, the safety after multiple doses will be evaluated as per the schedule of activities. Endpoints like objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and progression-free survival (PFS) will be evaluated as per the RECIST v1.1 by the investigator. After discontinuation or completion of the study treatment, the end of treatment visit, safety follow-up visit (6 months after end of the last dose), and survival follow-up visit will be performed for the patients.

The dose escalation and tolerability study is proposed to be conducted in the two dose groups of 5×106 and 5×107 active nanoparticles. The patients will receive the treatment at a fixed dose in the study. The dose escalation will be performed with reference to the 3+3 design during the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) observation period, with 3 patients enrolled first and observed for DLTs from Day 1 to Day 35. If none of the first 3 patients experience DLTs, the study will proceed to the next higher dose level; if 2/3 patients experience DLTs, the study will be stopped; if 1/3 patients experiences DLTs, additional 3 patients will be enrolled: if 1/6 patients experiences DLTs, the study will proceed to the next higher dose level; otherwise, the study will be stopped.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

• Age ≥18 years, male or female;
• Expected survival ≥12 weeks;
• Patients with advanced solid tumors as confirmed by cytology or histology who fail standard of care (progressed after treatment or intolerant to the treatment) and have no effective treatment available, or have no standard of care available, or unable to receive standard of care due to limitation of objective conditions;
• Patients with at least 1 measurable lesion as per RECIST v1.1;
• Patients with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) score of 0 or 1;
• Patients with adequate organ and bone marrow function. Definitions are as follows:
• Hematology: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5×109/L; platelet count (PLT) ≥100×109/L; haemoglobin (HGB) ≥9.0 g/dL. No treatment with granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), red blood cell transfusion, and platelet transfusion within 14 days prior to the assessment.
• Liver function:
• Patients with liver metastases: aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤5×upper limit of normal (ULN), and total bilirubin ≤1.5×ULN (exception: for patients with Gilbert's syndrome, total bilirubin ≤3.0×ULN is acceptable if direct bilirubin ≤35%).
• Patients without liver metastases: AST and ALT ≤2.5×ULN, and total bilirubin ≤1.5×ULN (exception: for patients with Gilbert's syndrome, total bilirubin ≤3.0×ULN is acceptable if direct bilirubin ≤35%).
• Kidney function: Serum creatinine (Scr) ≤1.5×ULN;
• Adequate coagulation function: International normalized ratio (INR) ≤1.5 or prothrombin time (PT) ≤1.5×ULN; it's acceptable to enroll patients who are on anticoagulant therapy as long as the PT is within the established therapeutic range for anticoagulants;
• Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50% as shown by an echocardiogram (ECHO) or a multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan;
• Willing to sign a written informed consent form and complete the visits and related procedures as required by the protocol.

Exclusion Criteria

• Patients with autoimmune disease or who are immunosuppressed; requiring treatment with systemic corticosteroids (≥10 mg prednisone, or equivalent dose of other corticosteroids) or immunosuppressants within 14 days prior to the first dose; inhaled and topical steroids are acceptable, or physiological replacement doses of steroids for adrenal insufficiency are acceptable;
• Patients who received major surgery (such as major transabdominal and transthoracic surgeries, excluding diagnostic aspiration or replacement of peripheral intravenous catheters) within 28 days prior to the first dose;
• Patients who received other antitumor therapies within 28 days prior to the first dose or 5 half-lives of the prior antitumor drug (whichever shorter);
• Female patients who are breastfeeding or have positive serum pregnancy test results at screening;
• Patients who experienced any grade 4 immune-related adverse events (irAEs) after receiving prior immunotherapy (patients with endocrine disorders may be enrolled if receiving replacement therapy or experiencing asymptomatic serum amylase and lipase increased), experienced any irAEs leading to permanent discontinuation of treatment after receiving prior immunotherapy, or experienced any grade 3 irAEs within ≤6 months prior to the dose;
