Peripheral Blood ETASTs for Predicting Efficacy of Chemoimmunotherapy in NSCLC

The goal of this observational study is to explore whether changes in peripheral blood effector tumor antigen-specific T cells (ETASTs) can predict treatment outcomes in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving chemoimmunotherapy. The study aims to: * Evaluate the relationship between ΔETAST levels (baseline to cycle 2) and progression-free survival * Compare the predictive performance of ΔETASTs with traditional biomarkers (PD-L1, TMB) * Assess whether ΔETASTs can identify patients more likely to benefit from PD-1 inhibitor plus chemotherapy Participants will: * Provide peripheral blood samples at baseline and after cycle 2 of treatment * Undergo ETAST quantification using the CTT-NanoDT technology with TATAN nanoparticles * Have standard tumor assessments every 2 cycles according to RECIST 1.1 criteria * Be followed for progression-free survival and overall survival up to 24 months

Recombinant EphB4-HSA Fusion Protein With Standard Chemotherapy Regimens in Treating Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

This pilot phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein when given together with standard chemotherapy regimens in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced) or have spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein, paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, gemcitabine hydrochloride, docetaxel, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether standard chemotherapy regimens are more effective with recombinant ephB4-HSA fusion protein in treating advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
