Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ET 140202 -T cell combined With TAE or Sorafenib in the treatment of liver cancer
Detailed description
The molecular target for ET140202-T cells is HLA-A02 complexed with a HLA-A02-restricted peptide of alpha fetoprotein (AFP), which is expressed on 60-80 percent of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This clinical study evaluates the safety and pharmacokinetics of ET140202-T cells with TAE or Sorafenib in patients with HCC who have no available curative therapeutic options and a poor overall prognosis.
Interventions
1. Sorafenib starting dose of 400mg b.i.d. a.c. 2. Autologous T cells transduced with lentivirus encoding an anti-AFP (ET140202) expression construct by intravenous (IV) infusion
1. Transarterial embolization(TAE) treatment 2. Autologous T cells transduced with lentivirus encoding an anti-AFP (ET140202) expression construct -intravenous (i.v.)
Autologous T cells transduced with lentivirus encoding an anti-AFP (ET140202) - expression construct -intravenous (i.v.)
