PA3-17 Injection Treatment of Adult Patients With CD7-positive Relapsed/Refractory Lymphoid Hematologic Malignancies
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a Phase I, open-label, dose-escalation clinical study with the primary objective of evaluating the safety and tolerability of PA3-17 injection in adult subjects with CD7-positive relapsed/refractory lymphoid hematologic malignancies. The secondary objectives are as follows: to evaluate the proliferation and in vivo persistence of CD7-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells after injection of PA3-17; to evaluate the proportion of CD7-positive cells in peripheral blood after injection of PA3-17; to preliminarily evaluate the efficacy of PA3-17 injection in adult subjects with CD7-positive relapsed/refractory lymphoid hematologic malignancies; to evaluate the immunogenicity of PA3-17 injection; and to explore the applicable dose in Phase II trial.

Detailed Description
Approximately 5 sites are planned to be selected for the clinical trial. The subjects, who sign the informed consent forms and been screened by inclusion/exclusion criteria, will be assigned into 0.5 × 106, 2.0 × 106 and 4.0 × 10^6 CAR-T/kg groups in order of sequence. And the subjects will be administered once. Dose escalation will follow 3 + 3 design and 3-6 subjects in each group will complete a single dose. Within the same dose group, the next subject will be administered after the previous subject has completed at least 14 days of safety observation. After the last subject in each dose group has completed the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) assessment window of 28 days after single dose, the enrollment and treatment for the next dose group may be initiated after the Safety Review Committee (SRC) agrees to enter the next dose group based on clinical safety data assessment.
When DLT occurs in 1 of 3 subjects in a dose group, 3 additional subjects in the same dose group will be required (up to 6 subjects in the dose group have completed DLT assessment): if no DLT occurs in the additional 3 subjects, dose escalation will continue; if 1 of the 3 additional subjects experiences one DLT, dose escalation will be discontinued; if more than 1 of the 3 additional subjects experiences DLTs, dose escalation will be discontinued, and 3 additional subjects will be required to be enrolled at one lower dose level for DLT assessment. After the end of escalation for the maximum dose group, if no MTD is observed, the highest dose level is defined as the MTD.
