Safety and Efficacy of BCMA-Targeted CAR-T Therapy for Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma

This is a single arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BCMA-targeted CAR-T cells therapy for patients with relapsed/refractory Multiple Myeloma.

Study Overview

• Status: Recruiting
• Conditions: Multiple Myeloma; Multiple Myeloma in Relapse; Neoplasm, Plasma Cell
• Intervention / Treatment: Biological: BCMA CAR-T cells

Detailed Description

There are limited options for treatment of relapse/refractory Multiple Myeloma. BCMA is expressed on most Multiple Myeloma cells so it is an ideal target for CAR-T. In this study, investigators will evaluate the safety and efficacy of CAR-T targeting BCMA in patients with relapsed/refractory Multiple Myeloma. The primary goal is safety and efficiency assessment, including adverse events and disease status after treatment.
