To Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Human BCMA Targeted CAR-NK Cells Injection for Subjects With R/R MM or PCL

A Early Phase 1 Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Human BCMA Targeted CAR-NK Cells Injection for Subjects With Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma or Plasma Cell Leukemia

This study is a single-arm, open-label, dose-escalation trial to explore the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamics characteristics of human BCMA targeted CAR-NK Cells injection, and to preliminarily observe the efficacy of the trial drug in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma or plasma cell leukemia.

Subjects with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma or plasma cell leukemia can participate if all eligibility criteria are met. Tests required to determine eligibility including disease assessments, a physical exam, Electrocardiograph, Computed tomography (CT)/Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)/Positron Emission Tomography (PET), liver/renal function tests, complete blood count with differential and complete metabolic profile and etc. Subjects will receive preconditioning chemotherapy prior to the first infusion of human BCMA targeted CAR-NK Cells injection. After the infusion, subjects will be followed for adverse events, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamics characteristics, efficacy of human BCMA targeted CAR-NK cells. Study procedures may be performed while hospitalized.

Inclusion Criteria:Subjects must meet all of the following criteria to be enrolled:

• Subjects volunteer to participate in clinical trials, understand and sign the informed consent document, be willing to complete all the trial procedures;

• Documented evidence of multiple myeloma at diagnosis as defined by IMWG updated criteria (2014), or plasma cell leukemia at diagnosis as defined by Diagnosis and therapeutic criteria of hematologic disease (4th edition);

• One of the following indicators is satisfied:

  1. Serum M protein: IgG M protein ≥5 g/L; or IgA M protein ≥5 g/L; or IgD M protein and IgD >ULN;
  2. Urine M protein ≥200 mg/24h;
  3. Affected serum free light chain ≥100 mg/L and Serum free light chain ratio is abnormal;
  4. Clonal bone marrow plasma cells ≥10 % for non-secretory myeloma;
