Due to a strategic adjustment, the company has decided to terminate the project.

The main purpse of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of KSD-101 in patients with advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma, to evaluate the initial clinical outcomes , immune response, and to evaluate the impact of KSD-201 on the quality of life in patients with advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

This study is a single-center, single-arm, open-label, dose-confirmation clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immune response, and preliminary clinical efficacy of KSD-201 in the treatment of patients with advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma. The study is conducted in two phases: the first phase is for dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) observation and dose confirmation; the second phase is an expansion study, where the investigators may add 3 to 6 subjects based on the safety and efficacy signals obtained from the first phase.

Enrolled subjects will undergo peripheral blood mononuclear cell collection. The collected material is transported via cold chain logistics to the dendritic cell vaccine preparation site, where the dendritic cell vaccine (KSD-201) is prepared using the subject's own monocytes. Once KSD-201 is successfully prepared, subjects will return to the hospital for KSD-201 injection according to the following method.

1. KSD-201 treatment dose: The provisional dosing is set at 5.0 × 10^6 cells/dose.
2. KSD-201 treatment frequency: a total of 3-5 times. The 4th and 5th times are booster treatments, which need to be decided by the investigator according to the condition of the subjects.
3. Dosing interval: 2 weeks. The interval may be adjusted based on the subject's condition during the intensive treatment phase.
4. KSD-201 route of administration: subcutaneous injection.
5. Administration site: near the axillary lymph node or inguinal lymph node.

  4. According to RECIST v1.1 criteria, there should be at least one measurable lesion.

  5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score of 0-1. 6. Eligible for leukapheresis and has no other contraindications for cell collection.

  7. Must have adequate organ function：

  • Liver function: ALT, AST ≤ 2.5 × ULN and TBIL ≤ 1.5 × ULN [for patients with liver metastases: ALT, AST ≤ 5 × ULN and TBIL ≤ 2 × ULN]

  • Kidney function: Creatinine ≤ 1.5 × ULN

  • Cardiac function: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50%

    9. Male and female subjects of reproductive age agree to take non-pharmacological contraceptive measures from signing the ICF until 6 months after the last dose.

Exclusion Criteria:

• 1. Within 4 weeks prior to apheresis, patients have received any chemotherapy, immunosuppressive drugs, or other medicinal treatments, or have undergone less than 5 drug half-lives (whichever is shorter), and within 2 weeks prior to apheresis, they have undergone systemic radiation therapy.

  2. Underwent allogeneic transplantation prior to enrollment. 3. Received (attenuated) live vaccines within 4 weeks prior to enrollment. 4. Participated in other clinical studies within 4 weeks prior to enrollment and received at least one dose of the investigational product.

  5. Underwent therapeutic surgery within 4 weeks prior to enrollment, or plan to undergo major surgery during the study, except diagnostic, biopsy and drainage procedures.

  6. Presence of uncontrolled infectious disease within 4 weeks prior to enrollment.

  7. Receiving systemic corticosteroid therapy prior to screening and require long-term systemic corticosteroids during the treatment period (except inhalation or topical application) as judged by the investigator, or received systemic corticosteroid therapy (except inhalation or topical application) within 72 hours prior to administration.

  8. Active central nervous system metastases/lesions (e.g., brain edema requiring hormone intervention or brain metastases).
