About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Dose Escalation, Multi-tumor Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability and Antitumor Activity of Genetically Engineered MAGE-A4ᶜ¹º³²T in HLA-A2+ Subjects With MAGE-A4 Positive Tumors

This study will investigate the safety and tolerability of MAGE-A4ᶜ¹º³²T cell therapy in subjects who have the appropriate HLA-A2 tissue marker and whose urinary bladder, melanoma, head and neck, ovarian, non-small cell lung, esophageal, gastric, synovial sarcoma, or myxoid/round call liposarcoma (MRCLS) tumor has the MAGE-A4 protein expressed. This study will take a subject's T cells and give them a T cell receptor protein that recognizes and attacks the tumors. This study has a substudy component that will investigate the safety and tolerability of MAGE-A4c1032T cell therapy in combination with low dose radiation in up to 10 subjects.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Adverse Events (AE) Including Serious Adverse Events (SAE)

    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant who received a pharmaceutical product, regardless of causality. An AE was , therefore, any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. The number of participants with AEs (including SAEs) are presented.

    Measured: From the start of lymphodepleting chemotherapy until end of interventional phase (up to 3.2 years).

  2. Peak Persistence

    Peak persistence of afamitresgene autoleucel cells was reported as vector copy numbers per microgram of genomic DNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC).

    Measured: From afamitresgene autoleucel infusion up to 18 months post-infusion

  3. Replication Competent Lentivirus (RCL)

    The presence of RCL was assessed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) targeting a segment of the vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (VSV-G) coding sequence.

    Measured: From afamitresgene autoleucel infusion to 3 months post-infusion

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Overall Response Rate (ORR)

    ORR, defined as the proportion of participants with Best Overall Response (BOR) of confirmed completed response (CR) or partial response (PR) among participants with measurable disease at Baseline. The ORR was based on the assessment of response per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 by local radiologist. Participants with unknown or missing response were treated as non-responders.

    Measured: From afamitresgene autoleucel infusion until disease progression/recurrence (up to 3.2 years)

  2. Best Overall Response (BOR)

    BOR was defined as the best response recorded from the date of T-cell infusion until disease progression. Response categories from best to worst were, confirmed CR, confirmed PR, stable disease (SD), progressive disease (PD), and not evaluable (NE) (per RECIST v1.1)

    Measured: From afamitresgene autoleucel infusion until disease progression/recurrence (up to 3.2 years)

  3. Time to Response (TTR)

    TTR was defined as the interval between the date of the first T-cell infusion and the earliest date of the first documented confirmed CR or confirmed PR.

    Measured: From afamitresgene autoleucel infusion until first documented confirmed CR or PR

  4. Duration of Response (DoR)

    DoR was measured from the first CR/PR (whichever was first recorded) until the first date of progressive disease.

    Measured: From initial confirmed response (DR or PR) until PD or censored date. is defined as all participants who had not experienced the event of interest (i.e. ongoing, event free) at the time of the data cut off (used for the analysis).

  5. Duration of Stable Disease (DoSD)

    DoSD was defined as the time from the date of T-cell infusion to the first date of the radiological PD. This analysis of DoSD only applied to participants with BOR as confirmed CR, confirmed PR, or confirmed SD.

    Measured: From date of afamitresgene autoleucel infusion to first date of radiological PD or censored date

  6. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS was defined as the time from the date of the first T-cell infusion to the first date of the radiological PD or death date (due to any reason), whichever event was earlier.

    Measured: From afamitresgene autoleucel infusion until first documented PD or death due to any cause, whichever comes first, or censored date.

  7. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the time from the date of afamitresgene autoleucel infusion to the date of death (due to any reason).

    Measured: From afamitresgene autoleucel infusion until death due to any reason or censored date From afamitresgene autoleucel infusion until death due to any reason or censored date

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in United States, Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 May 2026). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Adverse Events (AE) Including Serious Adverse Events (SAE) (time frame: From the start of lymphodepleting chemotherapy until end of interventional phase (up to 3.2 years).). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03132922, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Jun 2026.
