Personalized DC Vaccine for Postoperative Cancer

February 25, 2025 updated by: Zhen-Yu Ding, Sichuan University

Adjuvant Treatment in Cancer Patients with Neoantigen-primed DC Vaccine : a Single-arm, Open-label, Prospective Clinical Trial

The study is aimed to the test efficacy and safety of neoantigen-primed dendritic cell (DC) cell vaccine therapy for postoperative locally advanced gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, lung cancer and colorectal cancer, and to explore the biomarkers related to efficacy and adverse event.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Postoperative patients with pathological confirmed locally advanced gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer and colorectal cancer with standard adjuvant treatment are enrolled. This is a prospective exploratory trial. Patients' tumor tissues are subsequent to whole exosome sequencing and possible neoantigens are identified. DC is in vitro primed with synthesized peptides. Both adverse events and responses are recorded.
