Overview
Brief Summary
This is a single arm, open-label, dose escalation clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of infused autologous GPC3-directed CAR-T in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma refractory to prior systematic treatments.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Rate of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)
Time Frame: 28 days
Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as an adverse event that occurred within 28 days after JWATM204 infusion that met any of the following criteria. Any grade ≥3 nonhematologic toxicity associated with JWATM204 that has not resolved to ≤ grade 2 within 7 days, excluding clinically insignificant abnormalities in laboratory indicators Hematologic toxicity Grade ≥3 anaphylaxis Grade ≥3 infection did not resolve to grade ≤2 within 7 days after anti-infective treatment. ≥ grade 3 autoimmune toxicity during treatment Grade ≥3 cytokine release syndrome (CRS) during treatment that did not resolve to grade ≤2 within 72 hours. Grade ≥3 CAR-T cell-associated encephalopathy syndrome/immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (CRES/ICANS) that did not resolve to grade ≤2 within 72 hours. Grade 5 events of any nonmalignant cause.
Rate and severity of adverse events (AEs) and severe adverse events (SAEs)
Time Frame: 2 years
An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease (new or worsening) temporally associated with the use of study therapy, regardless of whether or not a causal relationship with the study therapy can be determined.
Rate and severity of clinically-significant abnormalities in laboratory testings
Time Frame: 2 years
Clinically-significant abnormalities in laboratory testings.
