About this trial

This is a Phase I, open-label, dual-cohort clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of intratumoral injection of recombinant human endostatin adenovirus in combination with a PD-1 inhibitor in patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck cancer, or in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) with superficial lymph node metastasis.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Incidence of treatment-related adverse effects (TRAEs)

This study will collected any adverse medical events that occurred during the study drug treatment, and the treatment related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0.

Time frame
Through study completion, an average of 1.5 year
2

Incidence of Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)

DLTs are defined as treatment-related adverse events occurring during the DLT evaluation period that meet protocol-specified criteria for severity and duration, as assessed by NCI CTCAE v5.0.

Time frame
During the first cycle of treatment (21 days)

Secondary outcomes

1

Objective Response Rate (ORR)

It is defined as the proportion of patients with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), as assessed by RECIST 1.1.

Time frame
up to 12 months
2

Disease Control Rate (DCR)

DCR refers to the proportion of patients who achieve complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) for a specified minimum duration after treatment, based on RECIST 1.1.

Time frame
up to 12 months
3

Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

Time from the start of treatment to the first documentation of disease progression based on RECIST 1.1.

Time frame
up to 12 months
4

Overall Survival (OS)

Time from the start of treatment to death from any cause

Time frame
up to 24 months
