What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Adverse Events (AE) after CT0890B infusion
An assessment of severity grade will be made according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria
Measured: 12 months after CT890B infusion
Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT)
The DLT is evaluated as the proportion of patients who experienced adverse events related to CT0890B that meet the criteria for DLT events after the first infusion
Measured: Up to 28 days after CAR-T cells infusion
MTD and/or dose range
Evaluate Dose limited toxicity and recommended dosage range after CT0890B infusion
Measured: Up to 28 days after CAR-T cells infusion
Secondary outcomes (11)
Composite response (CRc)
The composite response rate (CRc) included complete response (CR), complete response with partial hematologic recovery (CRh), complete response with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi), and morphologic leukemia-free state (MLFS). Responses were assessed in accordance with the Technical Guidelines for Clinical Development of New Drugs for Acute Myeloid Leukemia and the 2022 European LeukemiaNet criteria for acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
Measured: 12 months after CT0890B infusion
Partial response (PR)
Partial response (PR) was defined and assessed according to the Technical Guidelines for Clinical Development of New Drugs for Acute Myeloid Leukemia and the 2022 European LeukemiaNet response criteria for AML.
Measured: 12 months after CT0890B infusion
Rate of Subsequent Stem Cell Transplantation After CAR-T Therapy
This secondary endpoint was defined as the proportion of patients who proceeded to stem cell transplantation after CAR-T therapy during the study period.
Measured: 12 months after CT0890B infusion
Duration of response (DOR)
Patients achieving CR, CRi, CRh, or MLFS were included in the duration of response (DOR) analysis set. DOR was defined as the time from the date of first documented response to the date of disease relapse or death from any cause, whichever occurred first.
Measured: 12 months after CT0890B infusion
Event-free survival (EFS)
EFS was defined as the time from the date of CAR-T infusion to the earliest occurrence of treatment failure, relapse, or death from any cause. Treatment failure was defined as failure to achieve CR, CRh, CRi, MLFS, or PR at both prespecified efficacy assessments. Relapse included hematologic or extramedullary relapse after achieving CR, CRh, CRi or MLFS.
For patients with treatment failure (ineffective therapy), the primary EFS analysis assigned an event time of 1 day (i.e., the time from infusion to treatment receipt). Sensitivity analyses were performed using alternative definitions of event timing, including the actual date of treatment failure, the end of treatment, or the initiation of subsequent anti-leukemia therapy.
Measured: 12 months after CT0890B infusion
Overall survival (OS)
OS is defined as the time from the date of receiving the infusion to the date of death from any cause.
Measured: 12 months after CT0890B infusion
Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Negativity Rate
MRD negativity rate was assessed in participants who achieved CR, CRh, CRi or MLFS. MRD negativity was defined as <0.01% abnormal cells among CD45-positive cells as determined by multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC).
Measured: 12 months after CT0890B infusion
Pharmacokinetic Endpoint - Peak expansion (Cmax)
The maximum concentration or peak value of CT0890B cells in plasma after infusion, measured by CAR copy number.
Measured: 12 months after CT0890B infusion
Time to peak expansion (Tmax) of CT0890B
The time required to reach the peak expansion (maximum CAR copy number) in plasma following the infusion of CT0890B cells.
Measured: 12 months after CT0890B infusion
Area under the curve (AUC) of CT0890B
The total cellular exposure in plasma after infusion, calculated based on the area under the CAR copy number-time curve.
Measured: 12 months after CT0890B infusion
In vivo persistence of CT0890B
The duration for which CT0890B cells remain detectable in the plasma after infusion, monitored via CAR copy number.
Measured: Up to 12 months after CT0890B infusion

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing CAR-T cells chimeric antigen receptor T cells in people with AML and Refractory/Relapse Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by Peking University People's Hospital 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 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 1 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 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 Xiangyu Zhao, M.D,Ph.D (010-88325531, Zhao_xy@bjmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Adverse Events (AE) after CT0890B infusion (time frame: 12 months after CT890B infusion). 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?
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 1 Jun 2026.
