NY-ESO-1 TCR-T Cells for NY-ESO-1 Positive Subjects With Advanced Solid Tumors

This is a single-center, open-label, Phase I clinical study of TCR-T cells for the treatment of the recurrent/metastatic solid tumors patients who had failed standard therapy.

Objective:

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of TCR-T cells for the treatment of advanced solid tumors.

Eligibility:

Adults aging 18-70 with advanced solid tumors

Design:

Patients will undergo screening tests, including imaging procedures, heart and lung tests, and lab tests.

Patients will have leukapheresis. Blood will be removed through a needle in the arm. A machine separates the white blood cells. The rest of the blood is returned through a needle in the other arm.

Engineered T cells will be re-infused into the patient. Patients will stay in hospital and be evaluated
