Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Axicabtagene Ciloleucel Injection	Axicabtagene Ciloleucel	The total blood volume circulated is recommended to be approximately 8-10 liters to obtain about (5-10)×10\^9 mononuclear cells. The collected sample will be packaged according to the study product manual and quickly transported to the cell preparation center for the preparation of Axicabtagene Ciloleucel Injection. Pre-treatment chemotherapy. Axicabtagene Ciloleucel Injection infusion.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Best Objective Response Rate (bORR) at 6 months	Up to 36 months	This is defined as the proportion of subjects in the modified Intent-To-Treat (mITT) analysis set who achieve a best response of Complete Remission (CR) or Partial Remission (PR) following infusion of Axicabtagene Ciloleucel Injection, as determined by the treating physician, and who have the opportunity to complete the 6-month assessment. Before the data cutoff date, all subjects who do not meet the criteria for objective response will be considered as having no objective response (e.g., those without valid assessments or who did not undergo efficacy evaluation).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)	Up to 36 months	Defined as the time interval from the date of Axicabtagene Ciloleucel Injection infusion to the date of disease progression or death due to any cause (whichever occurs first) in the modified Intent-To-Treat (mITT) analysis set.
Complete Response (CR) Rate	Up to 36 months	Defined as the proportion of subjects in the modified Intent-To-Treat (mITT) analysis set who achieve a best response of Complete Response (CR) as determined by the treating physician.
Partial Response (PR) Rate	Up to 36 months	Defined as the proportion of subjects in the modified Intent-To-Treat (mITT) analysis set who achieve a best response of Partial Response (PR) as determined by the treating physician.
Duration of Response (DOR)	Up to 36 months	Defined as the time interval from the first documented complete or partial response to disease progression or death due to any cause (whichever occurs first) among subjects who achieve an objective response in the modified Intent-To-Treat (mITT) analysis set.
Overall Survival (OS)	Up to 36 months	Defined as the time interval from the infusion of Axicabtagene Ciloleucel Injection to death due to any cause in the modified Intent-To-Treat (mITT) analysis set. All subjects, regardless of whether they receive any additional anti-tumor treatment after infusion, will be followed up for survival information. The causes of death will also be reported.
