Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of supCD7 CART cells in the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory CD7-positive hematologic malignancies. In this single-arm, open-label, single-center, Phase Ⅰ+Ⅱ clinical trial, two cohorts were set up: (1) relapsed and refractory AML cohort; and (2) relapsed and refractory T-ALL/LBL cohort. Each cohort was planned to enroll 4-12 patients. SupCD7 CART cells will be administered intravenously to explore the MTD of each cohort using a 3+3 dose escalation and rapid titration design.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Overall Response Rate (ORR)

  1. The proportion of patients achieving CR (complete remission) or CRi (complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery) for T-ALL/LBL. 2. The proportion of patients achieving CR, CRi, or PR (partial remission) for T-ALL/LBL. 3. The proportion of patients achieving CRc \[composite complete remission, including CR/CRh (complete remission with partial hematologic recovery)\] or CRi for AML.

  Efficacy will be evaluated at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 following supCD7 CART cell infusion.

Secondary Outcomes (5)

• Total MRD-negative response rate (MRD-ORR) in bone marrow after supCD7 CART cell infusion

  3 months after supCD7 CART cells infusion

• Duration of remission (DOR)

  Participants will be followed for the duration of the treatment, an expected average of 24 months

• Event-free survival (EFS)

  Participants will be followed for the duration of the treatment, an expected average of 24 months.

• Leukemia-free survival (LFS)

  Participants will be followed for the duration of the treatment, an expected average of 24 months.

• Proportion of patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in remission

  Participants will be followed for the duration of the treatment, an expected average of 24 months.

The efficacy of supCD7 CART cell therapy

EXPERIMENTAL

This study will employ supCD7 CART cells to treat CD7-positive relapsed or refractory hematologic malignancies, particularly in patients with AML and T-ALL/LBL, with the aim of improving the re-remission rate in AML and T-ALL/LBL and providing a new therapeutic option to enhance their long-term survival.

Biological: supCD7 CART cells

Interventions

supCD7 CART cells BIOLOGICAL

Subjects screened to meet the requirements for supCD7 CART cells use will enter clinical trials. Subjects were assessed at baseline. Fludarabine and cyclophosphamide based preconditioning should be performed within 1 week prior to supCD7 CART cells infusion: fludarabine (Flu) 30mg/m2 ×3 days; cyclophosphamide (CTX) 500mg/m2 ×3 days. The investigator can adjust the pretreatment regimen appropriately according to the condition of the subject, such as increasing the dose of CTX to 600mg/m2 ×3 days, increasing the application of cytarabine and VP-16. Infusion of supCD7 CART cells must be performed 24 hours after completion of chemotherapy preconditioning. supCD7 CART cells can be infused at D-1 if the requirement of 24 hours after completion of preconditioning is met.
