A Study of CNA3103 (LGR5-targeted, Autologous CAR-T Cells) Administered to Subjects With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study aims to determine the safety and best response of treatment with CNA3103 (Leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 5 [LGR5]-targeted, Autologous Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) -T Cells), for participants with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.
Participants may undergo a pre-screening biopsy procedure to determine expression of LGR5.
Participants will undergo screening procedures, including leukapheresis (collection of T cells) and lymphodepletion (chemotherapy), up to 40 days prior to CNA3103 dosing.
Participants will receive 1 or 2 Intravenous doses of CNA3103, 2 months apart.
Expansion cohorts will open after determination of the maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase 2 dose in the dose escalation stage.
Participants will be followed up, monitored and will attend study visits for safety and research related tests and procedures for 2 years until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or intolerable adverse event/s, death or withdrawal of consent.

Phase 1/Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
This is a Phase 1/2a, multicenter, open-label study in adult subjects with metastatic colorectal cancer. (CRC). The study will consist of 2 segments:
Phase 1 Segment (Dose Escalation): a Bayesian Optimal Interval (BOIN) study design will be used to minimize any risks of exposure to the novel CNA3103 CAR-T cells during dose escalation while determining the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D). A minimum of 3 subjects per cohort will be enrolled at each dose level, with appropriate staggering of subjects within and between dose levels.
Phase 2a Segment (Dose Expansion): After determination of the MTD/RP2D, additional subjects will be enrolled and treated with CNA3103 at that dose to further assess the safety, PK, pharmacodynamic, and anti-tumor properties of CNA3103. Based upon safety data of these additional subjects, the Sponsor, in consult with the Investigators, may choose to enroll additional subjects at the same or a different dose.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- To determine the safety of treatment with CNA3103. [24 Months]
Incidence of Adverse Events
- To determine the overall best response to CNA3103. [24 Months]
Best response per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- To determine the recommended Phase 2a dose (RP2D) of CNA3103 [28 days]
Determined by dose limiting toxicities (DLTs)
- To monitor for replication competent viral construct in blood specimens [24 Months]
Viral construct presence will be monitored
- To determine the Pharmacokinetics of CNA3103 [24 Months]
Levels of CNA3103 cells measured
- To determine overall survival [24 Months]
Survival will be calculated from the onset of CNA3103 therapy.
- Failure to treat [8 Weeks]
Caused by manufacturing issues or patient related issues.
