A Study of TCR-Redirected T Cell Infusion in Subject With Recurrent HBV-related HCC Post Liver Transplantation
- Conditions
- Recurrent Hepatocellular Carcinoma
- Registration Number
- NCT02719782
- Lead Sponsor
- Lion TCR Pte. Ltd.
- Brief Summary
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence rate is high among liver transplant patients, while treatment measures are limited. This study plans to recruit 10 patients with Hepatitis B virus (HBV) related HCC who underwent liver transplantation and are confirmed to have recurrent HCC. The objective of the study is to assess the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of the HBV specific T cell receptor (HBV/TCR) redirected T cell in the target population.
- Detailed Description
This is a phase I, single armed and open labelled trial in patients with recurrent HBV related HCC after liver transplantation. Subjects who meet eligibility criteria will receive escalating doses of HBV specific T cell receptor (TCR-T) on Day 1, Day 8, Day 15 and Day 22 of the first 28-day treatment cycle, followed by every 2-week dosing on Day 1, Day 15, Day 29 and Day 43 of repeated cycle. A 21-day treatment break will be given between each cycle. Treatment will be continued until disease progression unless otherwise specified per investigator's discretion. Subjects will be followed up post treatment for safety monitoring, including monthly follow up for the first three month and every 2-monthly follow up up to 24 months post treatment.
