Summary

This project employs a prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled trial methodology to comparatively analyze the safety and survival outcomes of human umbilical cord blood RAK cells applied in advanced gastric cancer. Firstly, the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of RAK cell therapy for patients with advanced gastric cancer will be determined through a dose-escalation trial. Subsequently, the overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and incidence of adverse events will be compared between the RAK treatment group and the control group. This aims to explore the efficacy and safety of biotherapy for recurrent or metastatic gastric cancer where frontline therapy has failed, thereby laying the foundation and providing evidence for large-scale, multi-center clinical studies.

Conditions

  • Gastric (Stomach) Cancer
  • Biological Therapy
  • Immunotherapy

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

RetroNectin active Killer cells

RetroNectin-Activated Killer (RAK) cells, derived from autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), are induced in vitro by RetroNectin along with anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody and Interleukin-2 (IL-2). These cells consist of various cytotoxic effectors, primarily CD8+ T (cytotoxic T, Tc) cells and natural killer T cells, which exhibit minimal cytotoxicity to normal cells but substantial specificity to tumor cells, thereby demonstrating both safety and potent anti-tumor activity.

DRUG

TAS-102 (trifluridine and tipiracil, Lonsurf®)

Based on the results of the RECOURSE \[16\] and TERRA \[17\] studies, TAS-102 (Trifluridine/Tipiracil Hydrochloride) will be administered orally at a dose of 35mg/m², twice daily, Days 1-5, with each cycle lasting 3 weeks.
