Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a single-arm, open-label, multi-center Phase 2 clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Glypican3 (GPC3)-targeted DNA plasmid vaccine (NWRD06) in patients with GPC3-positive primary hepatocellular carcinoma after curative resection.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Eligible subjects will receive three injections of 4 mg NWRD06 at Weeks 0, 4, and 8. All enrolled subjects will be assessed by tumor imaging at Weeks 12, 24, 36, 48, and 72 after the first dose. These assessments will continue until the first occurrence of any of the following: disease recurrence, meeting withdrawal criteria, initiation of new antitumor therapy, or the completion of Week 72.

6. No residual intrahepatic lesions, no lymph node metastasis, and no extrahepatic metastasis confirmed by imaging within 4 weeks prior to the first dose.
7. For patients who underwent radical resection, the following intraoperative criteria must be met: 1) No invasion of adjacent organs, no portal lymph node or distant metastasis.

2\) Surgical margin negative. 8. No Vp4 macrovascular invasion, hepatic vein or inferior vena cava macrovascular invasion of any grade after radical resection; Notes: Patients with Vp1, Vp2, or Vp3 macrovascular invasion confirmed by imaging or pathology are eligible.

2. Has not adequately recovered from toxicities and/or complications of the prior curative procedure.
3. Presence of hepatic encephalopathy.
4. Requires regular renal dialysis.
5. Uncontrolled pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, or clinically significant ascites (defined as ascites not easily controlled by diuretic therapy).
6. History of gastrointestinal bleeding within 28 days prior to screening, or active bleeding, or bleeding tendency.
7. Received any systemic anti-tumor therapy for HCC (including chemotherapy, molecular targeted therapy, bio-immunotherapy) within 28 days prior to screening.
8. Participation in another clinical trial within 28 days prior to screening or still within the observational follow-up period of another trial.
9. Continuous systemic corticosteroid therapy (dose equivalent to \>10 mg/day prednisone) for more than one week within 28 days prior to screening (excluding hormone replacement therapy and inhaled corticosteroids).
