About this trial
This is a prospective, single-center, open-label, real-world clinical study designed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and immunogenicity of Personalized neoantigen-pulsed autologous dendritic cell Injections (ZSNeo-DC)in patients with malignant solid tumors. The study protocol received approval from the institutional review board and ethics committee of Beidaihe Hospital, adhering to ethical guidelines. Written informed consent was obtained from all participants in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. Approximately 100 patients will be enrolled in multiple tumor-specific cohorts which will be independently statistically analyzed. ZSNeo-DC will be manufactured by Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP). Participants will receive seven subcutaneous injections of personalized DCs administered on Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 36, 50, and 64, either as monotherapy or in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors according to routine clinical practice. Tumor response, progression-free survival, overall survival, safety, and antigen-specific immune responses will be evaluated throughout the study.

Treatments tested in this trial
Personalized neoantigen-pulsed autologous dendritic cell Injections (ZSNeo-DC)
Biological/VaccinePersonalized neoantigen-pulsed autologous dendritic cell Injections (ZSNeo-DC)will be manufactured by Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP). Mature dendritic cells are administered by subcutaneous injection to induce tumor-specific immune responses.
Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors
DrugApproved immune checkpoint inhibitors may be administered according to the approved prescribing information and institutional clinical practice.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Objective tumor response will be evaluated according to RECIST version 1.1 or other disease-specific response criteria, as applicable.
Secondary outcomes
Overall Survival
Disease Control Rate
Best Overall Response
Clinical Benefit Rate
Other outcomes
Antigen-specific T-cell Response
Antigen-specific T-cell activation will be evaluated using immunological assays including ELISPOT and flow cytometry.
Change in Peripheral Immune Cell Subsets
Changes in peripheral immune cell populations, including T-cell subsets and other immune-related cell populations, following personalized dendritic cell therapy will be assessed. Results will be reported as changes from baseline in immune cell proportions or absolute counts.
