ET 140202 -T Cell Combined With TAE or Sorafenib in the Treatment of Liver Cancer

Early Phase 1
Conditions
Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Liver Neoplasms
Liver Cancer
Metastatic Liver Cancer
Interventions
Biological: ET140202-T cell
Combination Product: Sorafenib combined with ET140202-T cell
Combination Product: TAE combined with ET140202-T cell
Registration Number
NCT03965546
Lead Sponsor
First Affiliated Hospital Xi'an Jiaotong University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ET 140202 -T cell combined With TAE or Sorafenib in the treatment of liver cancer

Detailed Description

The molecular target for ET140202-T cells is HLA-A02 complexed with a HLA-A02-restricted peptide of alpha fetoprotein (AFP), which is expressed on 60-80 percent of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This clinical study evaluates the safety and pharmacokinetics of ET140202-T cells with TAE or Sorafenib in patients with HCC who have no available curative therapeutic options and a poor overall prognosis.
