Squamous Cell Lung Cancer

The purpose of this study is to find out whether ZEN003694 is an effective treatment for people with advanced squamous cell lung cancer with a mutation in the NSD3 gene. ZEN003694 is a type of drug called a BET inhibitor. Researchers think ZEN003694 may help here because the drug works by blocking a group of proteins called bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) proteins, which may counteract the effect of NSD3 on tumor growth. Blocking these proteins may slow or stop the growth of the cancer.

This single-arm, open-label, multicenter, Phase I study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, anti-tumor activity, pharmacokinetics (PK)/pharmacodynamics (PD), biomarker, and immunogenicity of C-CAR031 in adult participants with GPC3+ advanced/metastatic squamous cell lung cancer, who are not amenable to curative therapy and have progressed or are intolerant to no more than 3 lines of prior systemic treatment including immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) and platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, concurrently or sequentially.

This is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center, phase Ⅱ trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Polymeric Micelles paclitaxel(pm-Pac), platinum (cisplatin/carboplatin) in combination with Ivonescimab as first-line treatment in metastatic squamous NSCLC patients.

The third/fourth generation of CAR-T cells that target GPC3 (GPC3-CART cell) and/or soluble TGFβ (GPC3/TGFβ-CART )have been constructed and their anti-HCC function has been verified by multiple in vitro and in vivo studies. Clinical studies will be performed to test the anti-cancer function by the GPC3/TGFβ-CAR-T cells in human HCC patients with GPC3 expression. In this phase I study, the safety, tolerance, and preliminary efficacy of the GPC3/TGFβ-CAR-T cell immunotherapy on human will firstly be tested.

APOLLO 11 main aim is to build a strong Italian long-lasting lung cancer network (in around 48 Italian centres) on real world data and translational research by creating a decentralized long-term national database (settle locally in each centre) and a "virtual" multilevel biobank in each centre. Besides, APOLLO 11 will take advantage of the translational research joint effort with the credo "unity is strength".
