GPC3-targeting CART Cell in Treatment of Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

A Phase I Clinical Trial for Evaluating the Safety, Tolerance and Efficacy of GPC3-targeting CART Cell in Treatment of Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

A Phase I Clinical Trial for Evaluating the Safety, Tolerance and Efficacy of GPC3-targeting CART Cell in Treatment of Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

This is an open-label, dose escalation/expansion study to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of CART cell in patients ≥ 18 years of age with relapsed or refractory advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Patients who meet the eligibility criteria will receive cell infusion. The study will include the following sequential phases: screening, pre-treatment (cell product preparation; lymphodepleting chemotherapy), treatment and follow up

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Subjects have fully understood the possible risks and benefits of participating in this study, are willing to follow and able to complete all trial procedures, and have signed informed consent;
2. Age 18-75 years;
3. Patients diagnosed as advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) histopathologically or cytologically; Progression or intolerance after previous standard systemic therapy;
4. GPC3 is detected positive by immunohistochemistry (IHC);
5. Child-Pugh score ≤ 7;
6. At least one assessable tumor lesion;
7. ECOG score: 0-1;
8. Expected survival ≥ 3 months;
9. Clinical laboratory values meet screening visit criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Previous CAR-T cell, TCR-T cell or other cell therapies or therapeutic tumor vaccination directed at any target;
2. Any previous GPC3 targeted therapy;
3. Prior antitumor therapy with insufficient washout period;
4. Brain metastases with central nervous system symptoms;
5. Pregnant or lactating women
6. HCV-Ab or/and HIV-Ab positive; active syphilis;
7. Severe underlying diseases
8. Any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, will make the subject unsuitable for participation in this study.
