TCR-T Cell Therapy for KRAS Mutation in Advanced Solid Tumors

January 14, 2026 updated by: Yuhong Li, Sun Yat-sen University

A Cliniacl Study of T Cell Receptor-engineered T-Cell (TCR-T) Injection in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors Induced by Kirsten Rat Sarcoma Viral Oncogene Homolog (KRAS) Mutations.

This is a single-arm, Multicenter, open-label clinical study aimed at evaluating the safety and efficacy of TCR-T injection in patients with advanced solid tumors induced by KRAS mutations.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This study is planned to enroll patients with advanced solid tumors who have KRAS G12V or G12D mutations and matching Human Leukocyte Antigen(HLA)-A*11:01 or HLA-C*01:02 subtypes. The study consists of screening period, leukapheresis period, lymphodepletion period, treatment period, observation period and follow-up period. The patients were treated lymphodepletion treatment with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine and than infused TCR-T. All subjects who have received TCR-T injection will be followed for safety and efficacy up to 1 years.
