About this trial

The purpose of this study is: 1) to evaluate the effectiveness and extended safety of the Plasmodium immunotherapy for the advanced malignant solid tumors. 2) To explore the safe and effective course of the Plasmodium immunotherapy for the advanced malignant solid tumors. 3) To explore the possible indications of Plasmodium immunotherapy for advanced malignant solid tumors.

The treatment will last 5-10 weeks from the day of successful infection and will be terminated by antimalarial drugs.
