Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participants or their legal representatives voluntarily sign a written informed consent form, are willing and able to comply with the procedures of this study.
  • Aged 18 to 65 years old (inclusive) when signing the informed consent, regardless of gender.

  • Participants must meet the following criteria:

    1. The subjects are allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) recipients with active chronic graft-versus-host disease (active cGVHD) requiring systemic immunosuppressive therapy.
    2. The subjects are patients with refractory or relapsed active cGVHD after receiving at least two lines of systemic treatment.

  • The laboratory test results during the screening period must meet the following criteria (except for indicators related to the study disease):

    1. Neutrophil count ≥ 1.0×10⁹/L;
    2. Hemoglobin ≥ 80g/L; Platelet count ≥ 30×10⁹/L;
    3. Alanine transaminase ≤ 3×upper limit of normal (ULN); Aspartate transaminase ≤ 3×ULN; Total bilirubin (TBIL) < 2×ULN;
    4. Creatinine clearance rate ≥ 30 mL/min.
  • Women of childbearing age must:

At the time of screening, as confirmed by the investigator, the result of the serum β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) pregnancy test is negative.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Evidence of recurrence of underlying malignant tumors or post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) at the time of screening
  • Having a history of severe hypersensitivity or allergies

  • Suffering from the following heart diseases:

    1. New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV congestive heart failure;
    2. A myocardial infarction occurred or coronary artery bypass surgery was performed within 6 months before the screening period.
  • Participants with clinically significant bleeding symptoms or a clear bleeding tendency within the 6 months prior to screening;
  • Participants with severe underlying medical conditions at the time of screening;
  • Participants who have undergone major surgery within 8 weeks prior to screening or are scheduled to undergo surgery during the study period;
  • History of organ transplantation;
  • According to the investigator's judgment, there are circumstances that would prevent the participant from completing the entire trial, confuse the trial results, or make participation in the trial not in the best interest of the participant.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of participants experiencing dose limiting toxicity
Time Frame: 28 days
Proportion of participants experiencing dose limiting toxicity (DLT) within 28 days after cell infusion
28 days
Incidence of adverse events
Time Frame: From infusion to the end of the treatment at 24 months
Incidence of adverse events per NCI-CTCAE version 5.0
From infusion to the end of the treatment at 24 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall response rate (ORR)
Time Frame: Up to 6 months post infusion
To evaluate the percentage of participants who have a confirmed partial response or complete response among total number of evaluable participants as assessed by the investigator
Up to 6 months post infusion
