Gene Therapy for Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) with ST002

Официальное название

An Open- Label, Single-arm, Dose-escalation Pilot Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Preliminary Efficacy of ST002 in the Treatment of Patients with NF2 Mutation-related Solid Tumors

Обзор

This is an open-label, single-arm, dose-escalation pilot study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of ST002 in the treatment of patients with NF2 mutation-related solid tumors. ST002 injection is a gene therapy product designed for NF2. By reinserting the normal XXX gene into genetically deficient tumor cells, the product expresses Merlin. This regulates gene transcription in tumor cells, controls the tumor microenvironment, and inhibits tumor growth and invasion, achieving therapeutic effects.

Подробное описание

This is an open-label, single-arm, dose-escalation pilot study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of ST002 in the treatment of patients with NF2 mutation-related solid tumors. Using a 3+3 dose escalation design, three dose groups are formulated, and three to six patients are expected to be enrolled in each dose group. A total of nine to eighteen - patients with NF2 gene mutation related solid tumors will be enrolled.

Вмешательства

• Генная терапия ST002
  Single multi-point intra-tumoral injection of ST002, a lentiviral vector designed to drive expression of the NF2 protein product, Merlin.

Первичные конечные точки
