Recruiting PHASE1 Head & Neck Cancer

New treatment option for Head & Neck Cancer

Official title Intratumoral Injection of Recombinant Human Endostatin Adenovirus (EDS01) for the Treatment of Recurrent or Metastatic Head and Neck Tumors

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07625423

What this study is testing

What is EDS01 1.0×10^11 VP + Toripalimab?

EDS01 1.0×10^11 VP + Toripalimab is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for head & neck cancer.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This single-center, Phase 1 study is evaluating the safety, tolerability, and preliminary antitumor activity of recombinant human endostatin adenovirus injection (EDS01) given by intratumoral injection in combination with toripalimab in adults with recurrent or metastatic head and neck tumors, including nasopharyngeal carcinoma, whose disease has progressed after platinum-based systemic therapy or who are not suitable for further platinum treatment. A total of 9 participants will be enrolled in 3 planned dose groups of EDS01.
