IX001 TCR-T

Details and patient eligibility

About

This is a single-arm, open-label clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of IX001 TCR-T injection in advanced pancreatic cancer patients with KRAS G12V mutation.

Full description

This study will enroll participants with advanced pancreatic cancer patients with KRAS G12V mutation. The study consists of screening period, leukapheresis period, lymphodepletion period, treatment period, observation period and follow-up period. A total of 9-12 evaluable patients are planned to be recruited. The study is planned to be conducted using the "3 + 3" dose escalation design in two dose groups, and a single dose of the study drug will be administered at the dose levels of 3 × 10^9 ± 30% cells and 1 × 10^10 ± 30% cells. Subjects will be enrolled sequentially and treated by IX001 TCR-T injection at the corresponding planned dose level. All subjects who have received IX001 TCR-T injection will be followed for safety and efficacy up to 2 years.

Inclusion criteria

1. Voluntary signing of an informed consent form (for Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) typing and tumor gene mutation test, and main screening)
1. Males or females, aged 18-75 years (inclusive)
1. Patients with pathologically (histopathologically) or cytologically confirmed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
1. Patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic disease who fail standard of care, i.e., patients who have progression after prior gemcitabine-containing chemotherapy or FOLFIRINOX (oxaliplatin + irinotecan + calcium folinate + 5-FU) or NALIRIFOX (irinotecan liposome + oxaliplatin + calcium folinate + 5-FU) regimen, including those who have progression within 6 months after the end of neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy
1. At least one measurable lesion (according to RECIST 1.1 criteria), specifically: longest diameter of ≥10 mm for non lymph node lesions or shortest diameter of ≥15 mm for lymph node lesions (tumor lesions situated in a previously irradiated area, or in an area subjected to other loco-regional therapy, are usually not considered measurable, unless unequivocal progression of the lesion is demonstrated by an evidence)
1. Patients with tumor tissue or peripheral blood tested positive for KRAS-G12V mutation and expression of matching HLA-A*11:01 subtype
1. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) ≤ 1
1. Life expectancy ≥3 months
1. Adequate functional reserve of organs: A) Hematology requirements (no blood transfusion or hematopoietic stimulating factor treatment within 14 days): Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5×10^9/L; Platelet count ≥ 75×10^9/L, hemoglobin > 90 g/dL; Absolute lymphocyte count ≥ 0.5×10^9/L; B) Blood Biochemistry Requirements: Alanine aminotransferase ≤ 3 × upper limit of normal（ULN） (≤ 5 × ULN for patients with liver metastases); Aspartate aminotransferase ≤ 3 × ULN (≤ 5 × ULN for patients with liver metastases); Creatinine ≤ 1.5 × ULN or creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min; Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN; C) Coagulation requirements: Partial thromboplastin activity time (APTT) ≤ 1.5 × ULN; International normalized ratio (INR) ≤1.5 × ULN; D) Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50% and no clinically significant pericardial effusion as diagnosed by echocardiography; E) No clinically significant electrocardiographic abnormality; F) Basic oxygen saturation is >92% under the indoor natural air environment.
1. Women of childbearing age must be negative for blood Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) pregnancy test (by immunofluorescence method) at screening and baseline periods, and agree to use effective contraception for at least 1 year after infusion; and male subjects whose partners are women of childbearing age must agree to use effective barrier contraception methods and avoid sperm donation for at least 1 year after infusion.

Exclusion criteria

1. History of organ transplantation
1. A history of mental disorders, which may affect compliance with this protocol or lead to failure in signing the Informed Consent Forms(ICF)
1. A history of autoimmune diseases (e.g., Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus) requiring systemic immunosuppressive/systemic disease-modulating drugs
1. Poorly controlled hypertension with drug (systolic blood pressure >160 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure >100 mmHg) or occurrence of grade III-IV heart failure or myocardial infarction, cardiac angioplasty or stent placement, unstable angina pectoris, or other clinically significant heart diseases within one year prior to signing the ICF; QTc interval >450 ms for males or QTc interval >470 ms for females during screening (QTc interval calculated using the Fridericia formula)

1. Symptomatic intracranial metastases, or moderate to severe ascites or pleural effusion requiring drainage to relieve symptoms
1. A history of or any central nervous system disorders, such as epileptic seizure, cerebrovascular ischemia/hemorrhage, dementia, cerebellar disease, or any autoimmune disease involving the central nervous system within the past 6 months
1. A positive result obtained in any of the following virological tests: A) Antibody to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV antibody); B) Hepatitis C virus antibody (HCV antibody), with a positive result for hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid (HCV RNA); C) Positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg); or positive for hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) and positive for hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid (HBV DNA) copies ≥2000 IU/mL; D) Treponema pallidum antibody (TP antibody) and positive for unheated serum reagin test;
