About

This project intends to investigate the clinical efficacy of intra-tumoural injection of chemotherapeutic agents (e.g. cisplatin, oxaliplatin, etc.)via fine needle aspiration guided by CT or ultrasound in patients with advanced solid cancers to validate the safety and efficacy.

Full description

Malignant solid tumours including lung and liver cancers are the most common malignant tumours worldwide and have a very high mortality rate. Currently,the clinical practice mainly relies on systemic administration of chemotherapeutic agents usually by intravenous infusion for patients with solid cancer with multiple metastases,but the overall efficiency is not high.Single or multiple chemotherapeutic agents are infused intratumourally to increase the local drug concentration in the tumour, improve efficacy and reduce drug resistance and systemic adverse effects. This project intends to investigate the clinical efficacy of intra-tumoural injection of chemotherapeutic agents (e.g. cisplatin, oxaliplatin, etc.)via fine needle aspiration guided by CT or ultrasound in patients with advanced solid cancers to validate the safety and efficacy.

Inclusion criteria

1. Male or female aged 18-75 years;
2. Subjects must have histologically- or cytologically-confirmed diagnosis of advanced solid tumor(s) and have progressed on or is not eligible for available standard therapy;
3. Subjects have at least one measurable lesion according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) (non-nodal lesions with longest diameter ≥ 10 mm, or nodal lesions with short diameter ≥ 15 mm);

5. Patients with diseases of the central nervous system or autoimmune central nervous system lesions, Including stroke, epilepsy, dementia;
6. Patients have myocardial infection, cardiac angiography or stents, active angina or other obvious clinical symptoms, or have cardiopathic asthma or cardiovascular lymphocytic infiltrates，within 12 months;
7. Patients are on anticoagulation or have severe coagulopathy (APTT>70);
8. Patients in any condition requiring systemic treatment with corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive agents within 2weeks prior to investigational drug administration;
9. Subjects having any serious uncontrolled disease or in other conditions that would preclude them from receiving study treatment and are considered unsuitable for this study in the opinion of the investigator;
10. Subjects in other conditions that are considered unsuitable for this study by the investigator.

Intratumoral Injection of Chemotherapy

Experimental group

Description:

Fine-needle puncture guided by CT or ultrasound and infusion of chemotherapeutic agents (e.g. cisplatin, oxaliplatin, etc.) via the tumour increases the local drug concentration in the tumour, improves therapeutic efficacy and reduces drug resistance and systemic adverse effects.

Treatment:

Procedure: Intratumoral Injection of Chemotherapy
