简要总结
The investigational product used in this study, UCLH801 cells, is a CAR-T cell therapy specifically targeting CDH17. The proposed indication includes CDH17-positive advanced solid tumors, such as but not limited to colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, biliary tract tumors, neuroendocrine tumors, ovarian cancer, and lung cancer. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of UCLH801 cells in patients with CDH17-positive advanced malignant solid tumors. The secondary objectives include assessing the preliminary efficacy of UCLH801 cells, their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in the body, and their immunogenicity.
This study aims to observe how the infusion of UCLH801 cells affects patients 's body, including any discomfort or changes in laboratory test results. Additionally, it will evaluate whether UCLH801 cells have any effect on tumor. Furthermore, the study will investigate how UCLH801 cells are metabolized; the mechanisms through which they exert their effects, and how to develops any immune response or rejection against UCLH801 cells.
详细描述
The trial progresses through sequential Phase Ia (dose-finding) and Phase Ib (dose-expansion) stages. Phase Ia cessation triggers include either confirmation of Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) or investigator-verified favorable therapeutic index at any dose level. Post-Phase Ia completion, protocol amendment submission to the Institutional Review Board precedes Phase Ib initiation, featuring multi-cohort expansion (n=9-18/cohort) across specified malignancies: colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC), gastric carcinoma (GC), high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC), breast cancer (BC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), SCLC, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), and cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC), etc.
This is a single-center, open-label, dose-escalation study consisting of two distinct treatment cohorts for patients with CDH17-positive advanced malignant solid tumors: Cohort 1 (CDH17 CART): A dose-escalating (3+3 design) study with 3 dose levels: 1.0×10^6, 3.0×10^6, and 6.0×10^6 CAR+ cells/kg. Cohort 2 (FAST LACO-Stim CDH17 CART): A dose-escalating (3+3 design) study with 2 dose levels: 3.0×10^4, and 1.0×10^5 CAR+ cells/kg. During dose escalation, the investigator may adjust the dose level as appropriate based on the accumulated human safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic data.
The final sample size will depend on the occurrence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), the number of dose escalation groups before observing DLTs, and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). The observation period for dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is set from the start of cell infusion to 4 weeks after the completion of cell infusion (D0 to D28).
