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.

Treatments tested in this trial
recombinant human endostatin adenovirus
Biological/VaccineRecombinant Human Endostatin Adenovirus: Administered via intratumoral injection twice every 3 weeks for a total of eight doses, or until disease progression, the occurrence of unacceptable toxicity, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
PD-1 Inhibitor
DrugPD-1 inhibitor: Administered via intravenous infusion once every 3 weeks.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
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.
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.
Secondary outcomes
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.
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.
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
Time from the start of treatment to the first documentation of disease progression based on RECIST 1.1.
Overall Survival (OS)
Time from the start of treatment to death from any cause
