Study of CAR-T Cell Therapy in the Treatment of Relapsed/Refractory Hematological Malignancies

Safety and Efficacy Study of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T (CAR-T) Cells in the Treatment of Relapsed/Refractory Hematological Malignancies

The primary purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of novel autologous CAR-T cells in patients with relapsed/refractory hematological malignancies.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

CAR-T cells targeted CD19 have demonstrated unprecedented successes. Besides CD19, many other molecules such as CD123, BCMA, and CD7 may be potential in developing the corresponding CAR-T cells to treat patients with hematopoietic and lymphoid malignancies. UTC Therapeutics Inc. have developed an efficient platform for constructing CAR-T cells that can remodel of tumor microenvironment and enhance the anti-tumor immune response and persistence of CAR-T cells. In this study, all eligible subjects will receive a conditioning chemotherapy regimen of fludarabine and cyclophosphamide followed by investigational treatment, CAR-T cells. Safety and efficacy of the CAR-T cells will be assessed.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall survival (OS)
Time Frame: 12 months
OS was defined as the time from CAR-T infusion to the date of death. Participants who did not die by the analysis data cutoff date were censored at their last contact date.
12 months
Objective Response Rate (ORR) (PR+CR)
Time Frame: 12 months
The proportion of patients with complete response(CR) or partial response(PR)
12 months
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame: 12 months

PFS was defined as the time from CAR-T infusion to the date of disease progression or death from any cause.

Participants not meeting the criteria for progression by the analysis data cutoff date were censored at their last evaluable disease assessment date.
