简要总结
This study is a single-arm, open-label early exploratory clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of GC012F injection in subjects with refractory GMG. Additionally, the study aims to assess the pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD) characteristics, and immunogenicity of GC012F injection in subjects.
详细描述
This study is a single-arm, open-label early exploratory clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of GC012F injection in subjects with refractory GMG. Additionally, the study aims to assess the pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD) characteristics, and immunogenicity of GC012F injection in subjects.
The trial consists of several phases: screening period, apheresis day, baseline period, lymphodepletion period, pre-infusion assessment period, GC012F infusion period, safety and efficacy follow-up period, long-term follow-up period, and study discontinuation visit (if applicable).
Qualified subjects will undergo apheresis and receive the infusion after the production of CAR-T products. Subjects will undergo lymphodepletion before CAR-T cell infusion and assessment before infusion. Subjects meeting the cell infusion criteria will receive CAR-T cell infusion according to the dose specified in the protocol. Dose adjustments may occur based on safety and clinical efficacy for subjects in the same group or subsequent trial groups.
