About this trial
This study was a prospective, single-center, open-label, single-arm, multi-dose ascending phase Ⅰ clinical trial. The investigators constructed a TM10-LNP mRNA preparation encoding CTLA-4 antibody and TGF-β trap bifunction protein (YMN-A02 bifunction RNA preparation). The aim of this study is to provide a new strategy for overcoming the immune tolerance of liver tumors and improving the response rate of immunotherapy. The investigators planned to enroll patients with advanced pMMR liver metastasis from colorectal cancer who failed standard treatment. A modified "3+3" design was used, and 10 patients were expected to be enrolled. There were four dose groups of 100μg, 250μg, 500μg and 1000μg. The trial used a modified "3+3" dose climbing design, in which one subject was set as a sentinel patient in the initial 100μg dose group. If the subject did not experience DLT during the DLT observation period, the dose was judged safe and escalation to the next group occurred. If DLT occurred, 3 additional subjects in this group would be required for further evaluation. In the subsequent 250μg, 500μg, and 1000μg dose groups, three subjects were enrolled first in each group: if there was no DLT, the number of subjects was increased. If ≥2 of the 3 cases had DLT, the escalation was terminated. If DLT occurred in 1 out of 3 subjects, 3 additional observations would be made in the same dose group. If the incidence of DLT in the total 6 subjects did not exceed 1/6 after the supplement, the escalation could be escalated. Otherwise, the escalation was terminated and the dose was considered as intolerable.

Treatments tested in this trial
YMN-A02 100μg
Biological/VaccineEnrolled subjects will receive a 100 μg intravenous infusion according to their assigned dose group. The dosing regimen includes 5 doses of primary immunization followed by subsequent individualized treatment. The first 4 doses of primary immunization are administered once weekly (Q1W), and the 5th dose is administered one month after the 4th dose. The DLT observation period is from the first infusion to 14 days after the third infusion.
YMN-A02 250μg
Biological/VaccineEnrolled subjects will receive a 250 μg intravenous infusion according to their assigned dose group. The dosing regimen includes 5 doses of primary immunization followed by subsequent individualized treatment. The first 4 doses of primary immunization are administered once weekly (Q1W), and the 5th dose is administered one month after the 4th dose. The DLT observation period is from the first infusion to 14 days after the third infusion.
YMN-A02 500μg
Biological/VaccineEnrolled subjects will receive a 500 μg intravenous infusion according to their assigned dose group. The dosing regimen includes 5 doses of primary immunization followed by subsequent individualized treatment. The first 4 doses of primary immunization are administered once weekly (Q1W), and the 5th dose is administered one month after the 4th dose. The DLT observation period is from the first infusion to 14 days after the third infusion.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Occurrence of Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT)
Observe and record the occurrence of DLTs. DLT is defined as treatment-related adverse events or clinically significant laboratory abnormalities occurring during the DLT observation period, graded according to NCI CTCAE v5.0.
Secondary outcomes
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
Assess disease progression per RECIST v1.1, calculating the time from start of treatment to first documented disease progression or death from any cause.
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Tumor response assessed per RECIST v1.1 for solid tumors. ORR is the proportion of patients whose tumor volume reduction reaches a predefined value and is maintained for a minimum required duration, calculated as the sum of complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) rates.
Other outcomes
Changes in Peripheral Blood Lymphocyte Subsets
Peripheral blood lymphocytes will be isolated from whole blood using lymphocyte separation medium. Flow cytometry will be used to detect T cells, B cells, macrophages, NK cells, and regulatory T cells (Tregs).
Percentage of Dendritic Cells Expressing Maturation/Activation Markers
Dendritic cells (DCs) will be isolated from peripheral blood and labeled with antibodies against surface markers CD80, CD86, and MHC class II molecules. Flow cytometry will be performed to determine the percentage of DCs positive for each marker. Maturation and activation status are assessed based on these percentages
Tumor-Infiltrating CD8+ T Cells
Tumor tissue sections will be stained to identify CD8+ T cells, including stem-like and exhausted CD8+ T cell subsets. Confocal microscopy and flow cytometry (using single-cell suspensions from tumor tissue) will be used to observe the infiltration status of these cells.
Cytokine Levels Associated with Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity (DTH)
Plasma will be collected 24-72 hours after administration. ELISA kits will be used to measure the levels of cytokines including IL-12, IFN-γ, IL-2, and IL-10 to assess the cellular immune response and the impact of the product on immune function.
