About this study
Official title: An Open-label Clinical Study on the Efficacy and Safety of CD7-specific CAR-T Cell Injection in the Treatment of CD7-positive Relapsed/Refractory Hematologic Tumors
This study is a single-center, open, prospective single-arm clinical study of patients with CD7 postive relapsed / refractoryhematological tumors to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CD7-specific CAR-T cells in relapsed / refractory hematological tumors while collecting pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics indicators of CAR-T cells.
Read the detailed description
In order to study CD7-targeting CAR-T cell therapy, we constructed a lentiviral CAR structure. The CD7-targeting fragment was cloned into a second-generation CAR structural backbone with 4-1BB and CD3E. Since endogenous CD7 in T cells causes CD7-targeting CAR-T cells to kill each other, we used a natural selection method to prepare CD7-targeting CAR (CD7-CART) T cells that do not express the CD7 protein (CD7-).

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Overall response rate (ORR) of administering CD7-specific CAR-T Cells In the treatment of relapsed/refractory hematologic tumors
Disease overall response rate (ORR) will be assessed from CAR-T cell infusion to death or last follow-up (censored).
Measured: within 3 years after infusion
Incidence of Treatment-related Adverse Events

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing Fludarabine + Cyclophosphamide + CD7-specific CAR-T Cells in people with Hematologic Malignancy, run by Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology 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 14 inclusion and 13 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Dec 2024. 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?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Mei Heng, M.D., Ph.D (027-8572600 ext. Union Hospital, hmei@hust.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Overall response rate (ORR) of administering CD7-specific CAR-T Cells In the treatment of relapsed/refractory hematologic tumors (time frame: within 3 years after infusion). The study lists 2 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 NCT06720324, which also lists 3 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 6 Dec 2024.
