Condition/Disease

Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

Objectives

In our recently completed single arm Phase 2 trial of first-line gemcitabine and carboplatin (GC) for four cycles followed by autologous EBV-specific CTLs in 38 patients, we showed that such an approach is feasible and has comparably very good efficacy with a favorable toxicity profile (52). This is, to date, the largest T cell therapy study for NPC and has achieved the best survival outcome for patients with advanced stage disease. It is only logical that a randomized trial be carried out to accurately assess if combined gemcitabine-carboplatin followed by adoptive T cell therapy would improve clinical outcome for patients with advanced NPC.

Test Drug

Epstein-Barr virus-specific autologous cytotoxic T lymphocytes

Active Ingredient

Epstein-Barr virus-specific autologous cytotoxic T lymphocytes

Dosage Form

細胞培養注射液

Dosage

1毫升細胞液內含2 x 10^7個細胞

Endpoints

Primary:
Assess the efficacy of CTL following first line
chemotherapy in prolonging Overall Survival (OS) of
patients with advanced NPC
Secondary:
• Assess the efficacy of CTL in delaying disease
progression (PFS) in patients with advanced NPC
• Compare the Overall Response Rate, Clinical
Benefit Rate and Quality of Life of patients
undergoing the 2 treatment arms
Exploratory:
• Demonstrate persistence of EBV specific immune
response in Arm A
• Evaluate biomarkers of response to therapy and in
relation to outcome indices
