ARYA-3 Trial Summary

This trial will test a new T-cell therapy to treat advanced liver cancer that has failed other treatments. The goal is to find the safe dose and to see if the treatment works.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced liver cancer (HCC) who have tried at least two treatments without success can join this trial. They should have a life expectancy of 4+ months, good organ function, and their cancer must show GPC3-positive expression. A score indicating mild liver disease (Child-Pugh A6 or better) and a performance status showing they're mostly independent are also required.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The ECT204 T-cell therapy is being tested in adults with HCC that's not removable by surgery or has spread. This Phase I/II trial will determine the safest dose to use while checking how well it works against liver cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects for ECT204 T cells aren't listed here, similar therapies often cause immune reactions, fatigue, fever, and potential harm to healthy tissues due to an overactive immune response.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
To assess the safety and tolerability of ECT204 in adult subjects with advanced HCC
To determine the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) of ECT204 (Concluded During Phase 1 of the study)
Secondary outcome measures
To assess the efficacy of ECT204 in adult subjects with advanced HCC using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) as the primary criterion.
To characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of ECT204, including the expansion and persistence of ECT204, in our study subject population

ARYA-3 Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Arm BExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Approximately 10-15 subjects will receive ECT204 at the RP2D by intravenous infusion and preceded by cyclophosphamide and fludarabine chemotherapy for lymphodepletion. Arm B subjects will also receive pre-treatment with regorafenib (STIVARGA®) before ECT204 administration.
Group II: Arm AExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Approximately 10-15 subjects will receive ECT204 at the RP2D by intravenous infusion and preceded by cyclophosphamide and fludarabine chemotherapy for lymphodepletion.
