About this study

Official title: A Clinical Study of PD-1 Antibody Expressing mesoCAR-T Cells for Patients With Mesothelin Positive Advanced Solid Tumors

This is a single-arm, open-label, one center clinical study, to determine the safety and efficacy of infusion of autologous T cells engineered to target mesothelin and express PD-1 antibodies in adult patients with advanced recurrent or refractory malignant solid tumors, which were positive expression of mesothelin.

Read the detailed description

This study will be conducted using a phase I/II trial design to assess the safety and efficacy of the PD-1 antibody expressing mesoCAR-T for patients with mesothelin positive, advanced recurrent or refractory malignant solid tumors. MesoCAR-T can specifically and effectively kill the mesothelin positive cancer cells, PD-1 antibody are secreted from the CAR-T cells could improve immunosuppression microenvironment, new CAR-T cells contain the advantages of CAR-T and immune checkpoint inhibitor, which is a promising therapeutic method for advanced solid tumors.

The new CAR-T therapy is applied to clinical practice as bellow. T cells are prepared from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by leukapheresis, and then activated and engineered to express chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) targeting mesothelin and PD-1 antibody. Cells are proliferated in culture and returned to the patients by venous transfusion therapy. A total of 50 patients may be enrolled in the study. The total duration of the study is expected to be approximately 24 months.

Being tested
PD-1 antibody expressing mesoCAR-T cells

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PD-1 antibody expressing mesoCAR-T cellsBiological

    Patients with mesothelin positive cancer will be infused the PD-1 antibody expressing mesoCAR-T cells. The modified mesoCAR-T cells can specifically kill mesothelin positive cancer cells and secrete PD-1 antibody, which could enhance the cytotoxicity of mesoCAR-T cells and activate the tumor infiltrating lymphocytes.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PD-1 antibody expressing mesoCAR-T cellsExperimentalPatients will receive two cycles of PD-1 antibody expressing mesoCAR-T cells treatment. Every cycle, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) are collected on day -18, CAR-T cells are cultured in a GMP standard workshop. Patients are given a three-day regimen of chemotherapy consisting of fludarabine and cyclophosphamide aimed to deplete the lymphocytes before cells infusion. Then the patients will receive an i.v.gtt infusion of PD-1 antibody expressing mesoCAR-T cells from day 1 to day 3 (±3days).

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of treatment-related adverse events of infusion of autologous PD-1 antibody expressing mesothelin-targeted CAR-Tcells

    Incidence of treatment-related adverse events are assessed using the NCI CTCAE V4.0 criteria.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Objective response rate (ORR) of the treatment using PD-1 antibody expressing mesoCAR-T cells for advanced solid tumors

    Objective response rate (ORR) of the treatment is assessed according to the response evaluation criteria in solid tumor version 1.1 (RECIST1.1), which contains complete response (CR) and partial response (PR).

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Progression free survival

    Progression free survival is defined as the time from the day in which the patient is enrolled to the date on which tumor progresses or the date on which the patient dies for any cause.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Overall survival

    Overall survival is defined as the time from the day in which the patient is enrolled to the date on which the patient dies for any cause.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing PD-1 antibody expressing mesoCAR-T cells in people with Advanced Solid Tumor, run by Shanghai Cell Therapy Research Institute at 1 site in China.

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 11 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Zhiwei Zhang, PhD (0086-021-59593168 ext. 8008, zhangzw@shcell.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of treatment-related adverse events of infusion of autologous PD-1 antibody expressing mesothelin-targeted CAR-Tcells (time frame: 2 years). 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 NCT03615313, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 3 Aug 2018.
