Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Phase Ib: Incidence of Treatment Related adverse events (AEs)

    Incidence of treatment related AEs, AEs of special interest and serious adverse events(SAEs).

    Up to 18 months

  • Phase Ib: Identification of Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)

    Incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)

    day1-day28

  • Phase II: Progression-free survival (PFS), as assessed by IRC, of CT041 autologous CAR T-cell injection versus Physician's Choice

    Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the earliest date of the first objective documentation of progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause.

    Up to 24 months

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Phase Ib: Objective Response Rate (ORR), as assessed by Investigators

    Up to 18 months

  • Phase Ib: Progression-free survival (PFS), as assessed by Investigators

    Up to 18 months

  • Phase Ib:Overall survival (OS)

    Up to 18 months

  • Phase Ib:Duration of response (DOR), as assessed by Investigators

    Up to 18 months

  • Phase Ib:Disease control rate (DCR), as assessed by Investigators

    Up to 18 months

  • +5 more secondary outcomes
