SL-28 for Advanced Solid Tumours

Second Life Therapeutics is developing SL-28, an allogeneic, non-genetically modified cell-based therapy for the treatment of advanced solid tumours. The company has recently demonstrated a novel, non-genetic approach to modulate immune cell activity through targeted manipulation of the Universal Receptive System. The purpose of this open label, multi-center clinical trial is to evaluate the anti-tumor activity, safety, and pharmacokinetics, single-agent SL-28 in patients with a diverse array of solid tumors. The study includes an initial Phase 1 dose escalation to determine recommended dose(s) for expansion of SL-28 as a monotherapy and Phase 2 expansion cohorts. The study will enroll patients with advanced solid tumours, including those who failed previous lines of chemo- and immunotherapies.

Non-Operative Management and Following Immunotherapy for Colorectal Cancer and Other GI Cancers

This is a single-center, bidirectional (retrospective and prospective) registry study aimed at evaluating the safety and efficacy of Non-Operative Management (NOM) and Organ-Preserving Functional Surgery (OPFS) in patients with mismatch repair-deficient/microsatellite instability-high (dMMR/MSI-H) or POLE-mutated gastrointestinal (GI) cancers who received neoadjuvant immunotherapy.Patients achieving a clinical complete response (cCR) or near-cCR may undergo a "Watch \& Wait" (W\&W) strategy, while those with near-cCR or non-cCR ($\\le ymrT2N0$) may undergo local excision (LE) or endoscopic resection (ESD/EMR). Patients undergoing radical operation (RO) will serve as the control cohort to compare oncological outcomes and safety data.

PROGAIN Trial in Gastric Cancer Surgery

This randomized study will evaluate whether protein-enriched parenteral nutrition improves early postoperative recovery in patients undergoing gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Participants will be assigned to receive either protein-enriched parenteral nutrition or standard parenteral nutrition during the perioperative period. The primary outcome is nitrogen balance on postoperative day 5. Secondary outcomes include postoperative complications, recovery of oral intake, and short-term changes in nutritional status and body composition.
