A Study of the RNA Tumor Vaccine Targeting MICA/B in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Inclusion Criteria:

* Age ≥18 years, male or female;
* Expected survival ≥12 weeks;
* Patients with advanced solid tumors as confirmed by cytology or histology who fail standard of care (progressed after treatment or intolerant to the treatment) and have no effective treatment available, or have no standard of care available, or unable to receive standard of care due to limitation of objective conditions;
* Patients with at least 1 measurable lesion as per RECIST v1.1;
* Patients with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) score of 0 or 1;
* Patients with adequate organ and bone marrow function. Definitions are as follows:
* Hematology: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5×109/L; platelet count (PLT) ≥100×109/L; haemoglobin (HGB) ≥9.0 g/dL. No treatment with granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), red blood cell transfusion, and platelet transfusion within 14 days prior to the assessment.
* Liver function:
* Patients with liver metastases: aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤5×upper limit of normal (ULN), and total bilirubin ≤1.5×ULN (exception: for patients with Gilbert's syndrome, total bilirubin ≤3.0×ULN is acceptable if direct bilirubin ≤35%).
* Patients without liver metastases: AST and ALT ≤2.5×ULN, and total bilirubin ≤1.5×ULN (exception: for patients with Gilbert's syndrome, total bilirubin ≤3.0×ULN is acceptable if direct bilirubin ≤35%).
* Kidney function: Serum creatinine (Scr) ≤1.5×ULN;
* Adequate coagulation function: International normalized ratio (INR) ≤1.5 or prothrombin time (PT) ≤1.5×ULN; it's acceptable to enroll patients who are on anticoagulant therapy as long as the PT is within the established therapeutic range for anticoagulants;
* Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50% as shown by an echocardiogram (ECHO) or a multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan;
* Willing to sign a written informed consent form and complete the visits and related procedures as required by the protocol.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with autoimmune disease or who are immunosuppressed; requiring treatment with systemic corticosteroids (≥10 mg prednisone, or equivalent dose of other corticosteroids) or immunosuppressants within 14 days prior to the first dose; inhaled and topical steroids are acceptable, or physiological replacement doses of steroids for adrenal insufficiency are acceptable;
* Patients who received major surgery (such as major transabdominal and transthoracic surgeries, excluding diagnostic aspiration or replacement of peripheral intravenous catheters) within 28 days prior to the first dose;
* Patients who received other antitumor therapies within 28 days prior to the first dose or 5 half-lives of the prior antitumor drug (whichever shorter);
* Female patients who are breastfeeding or have positive serum pregnancy test results at screening;
* Patients who experienced any grade 4 immune-related adverse events (irAEs) after receiving prior immunotherapy (patients with endocrine disorders may be enrolled if receiving replacement therapy or experiencing asymptomatic serum amylase and lipase increased), experienced any irAEs leading to permanent discontinuation of treatment after receiving prior immunotherapy, or experienced any grade 3 irAEs within ≤6 months prior to the dose;
* Patients known to have or diagnosed with active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis at screening. However, the following patients may be enrolled: 1) patients with asymptomatic brain metastases (i.e., without progressive CNS symptoms caused by brain metastases, nor requiring treatment with corticosteroids). 2) patients who are treated with stable brain metastases for at least 2 months, without evidence indicating new or enlarged brain metastases;
* Patients with serious cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disorders: inadequately controlled hypertension (systolic blood pressure \>160 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure \>95 mmHg) after standard of care, symptomatic cardiac insufficiency (NYHA II- IV), unstable angina or myocardial infarction within 6 months, or patients with risks of QTc interval prolongation or arrhythmia (QTcF \>470 ms at baseline, uncorrected hypokalaemia, long QT syndrome, atrial fibrillation with heart rate \>100 bpm at rest, or serious cardiac valve disease);
* Patients with uncontrolled pleural effusion, ascites, and pericardial effusion;
* Patients with active infections requiring treatment: active Hepatitis B virus (HBV) or Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection; known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS); active tuberculosis, etc.;
* Patients with toxicities from prior antitumor therapies which fail to return to CTCAE grade ≤1 (NCI-CTCAE v5.0) or baseline level, excluding atrichia and skin pigmentation (any grades);
* Patients with a history of severe allergic reactions to biologics;
