About this study

Official title: Treatment of Refractory Immune Thrombocytopenia

This is a phase I, interventional, single arm, open label, treatment study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BCMA-CD19 cCAR T cells in patients with refractory ITP associated with autoimmune disease.

Read the detailed description

Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) Can be associated with various autoimmune diseases, including SLE, and SS. Patients with refractory thrombocytopenia often have long hospital stays, high medical costs, high demand for blood products, and are prone to complications of other systemic injuries. Such patients require active treatment to reduce the risk of life-threatening bleeding, delay the progression of the disease prognosis Glucocorticoids combined with immunosuppressive agents are still the main treatment strategies. Recently, biological agents targeting abnormal immune cells, such as rituximab and belimumab, which deplete B cells have also achieved some success in the treatment of ITP. However, these agents cannot permanently reverse the production of abnormal antibodies as they are unable to eliminate pathogenic long-lived plasma cells because these agents cannot penetrate lymph nodes and soft tissue. The BCMA-CD19 cCAR T-cells are designed to deplete antibody-producing 'root", B cells and plasma cells.

What participants receive

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

  • BCMA-CD19 cCAR T cellsBiological

    • BCMA-CD19 cCAR T cells are used to treat patients. Patient will be administered either fresh or thawed CAR T cells by IV injection after receiving lymphodepleting chemotherapy.

Receives: Biological: BCMA-CD19 cCAR T cells

What is being measured

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

  1. The number and incidence of adverse events after BCMA-CD19 cCAR T cell infusion

    Evaluation all possible adverse reactions, including the number, incidence, and severity of symptoms such as cytokine release syndromes and neurotoxicity within 3 months after BCMA-CD19 cCAR infusion.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall remission rate 12 weeks after BCMA-CD19 cCAR

    1. Complete response (CR): Platelet count ≥ 100 × 109/L and no bleeding;
    2. Partial response (PR): platelet count<100 × 109/L, but increased by at least 2 times compared to baseline platelet count, with no bleeding symptoms
    3. Disease control: Disease control monitored up to 2 years after BCMA-CD19 cCAR T cells infusion)

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BCMA-CD19 cCAR T cells in people with Refractory Immune Cytopenia, run by iCell Gene Therapeutics 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 1 inclusion and 2 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 22 Jan 2025. 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 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?

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 Qibing Xie, MD (0118618980601299, xieqibing1971@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The number and incidence of adverse events after BCMA-CD19 cCAR T cell infusion (time frame: 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 22 Jan 2025.
