A Multicenter, Open-Label, Non-Randomized, Single-Arm Investigator-Initiated Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of IL13Rα2 CAR-T Cells Secreting Anti-PD-L1 Antibody in Patients With Recurrent Malignant Glioma
This clinical study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IL13Rα2 CAR-T cells secreting anti-PD-L1 antibody in patients with recurrent malignant glioma. This trial is a multicenter, open-label, non-randomized, single-arm investigator-initiated trial (IIT). Patients who have recurrent malignant glioma will receive IL13Rα2 CAR-T cell therapy and will be monitored for safety, adverse events (AEs), and efficacy outcomes, including overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). The study will help assess the potential of this innovative therapy in the treatment of glioma and its ability to control tumor growth by targeting both IL13Rα2 and PD-L1.
The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IL13Rα2 CAR-T cells secreting anti-PD-L1 antibody for the treatment of recurrent malignant glioma. Malignant gliomas are aggressive brain tumors with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. Immunotherapy, including CAR-T cells, has shown promise in various cancers, but its application in glioma treatment remains under investigation.
This study will involve patients with recurrent glioma who have failed prior treatments. Participants will receive a single infusion of IL13Rα2 CAR-T cells, which are engineered to recognize and target tumor cells expressing IL13Rα2. The CAR-T cells will be combined with the secretion of anti-PD-L1 antibodies, aimed at overcoming the immune checkpoint inhibition in the tumor microenvironment.
Safety will be assessed by monitoring adverse events (AEs) and cytokine release syndrome (CRS). The efficacy will be evaluated by measuring tumor response, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) over a follow-up period of several months. The study will also assess changes in the immune microenvironment, including immune cell infiltration and expression of immune checkpoint markers.
The trial will be conducted across multiple centers, including major hospitals in China. It aims to provide valuable data on the potential of this dual-target CAR-T therapy in treating gliomas and to assess its feasibility as a clinical treatment option.
