Interventions

KT032(anti-MSLN chimeric antigen receptor autologous T cell injection) BIOLOGICAL

Lymphodepletion conditioning is required prior to administration of anti-MSLN chimeric antigen receptor autologous T cell injection (KT032). KT032 is administered via intraperitoneal injection (10-30 ml cell injection solution by intraperitoneal bolus), 1 bag per dose, for a total of 1 dose. The investigational product dose will be determined based on the subject's body weight and the number of viable CAR-positive T cells. Dosing according to the pre-specified dose levels: 1.0×10⁶ CAR-T cells/kg, 2.0×10⁶ CAR-T cells/kg, and 3.0×10⁶ CAR-T cells/kg (for the highest dose cohort, if body weight exceeds 70 kg, dose calculation will be based on 70 kg). Given the special nature of cell products, an actual dosing variation of ±20% is permitted for each dose cohort.

KT032：1.0×10⁶ CAR-T cells/kg; KT032：2.0×10⁶ CAR-T cells/kg; KT032：3.0×10⁶ CAR-T cells/kg

• Presence of at least one measurable lesion per RECIST 1.1 criteria;
• MSLN expression positivity in tumor tissue detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC), defined as IHC ≥2+ (i.e., ≥26% positive tumor cells stained); subjects must undergo fresh tumor tissue biopsy; if biopsy is not feasible, at least 5 archived tumor tissue slides collected within one year must be provided (if multiple tumor tissue collections exist, the most recent sample is preferred);

• Recovery from all toxicities related to prior treatment to acceptable baseline status, or recovery to normal or Grade 1 per NCI CTCAE 5.0, as determined by the investigator; except for toxicities not expected to increase safety risk of subsequent investigational product infusion, such as alopecia, vitiligo, etc.;
• Agreement by subjects and their partners to use effective contraceptive methods (excluding rhythm method) from the time of informed consent signature until one year after CAR-T cell infusion;
• Written informed consent on IRB/IEC-approved consent form obtained personally from the subject prior to initiation of any screening procedures.

You may not qualify if:

• Other malignancies within 5 years prior to screening, except adequately treated cervical carcinoma in situ, basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, or ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast after radical surgery;
• Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) positive with peripheral blood hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA titer above the lower limit of detection of the quantitative assay at the study site; Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody positive with peripheral blood HCV RNA above the lower limit of detection of the quantitative assay at the study site; Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody positive; Positive syphilis test;
• Patients with central nervous system metastases and/or other unstable central nervous system diseases (hemorrhage, active infarction, infection, etc.);
• Receipt of live attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to cell injection;
• History of hypersensitivity to prior immunotherapy, allergy or intolerance to fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, albumin-bound paclitaxel conditioning regimen drugs, or tocilizumab, or allergy to components of the investigational product formulation, or history of other severe allergic reactions;
• Poorly controlled hypertension (systolic blood pressure ≥160 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥100 mmHg) or clinically significant (e.g., active) cardiovascular disease, such as cerebrovascular accident (within 6 months prior to main informed consent signature), myocardial infarction (within 6 months prior to main informed consent signature), unstable angina, New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II or greater congestive heart failure, or serious arrhythmia not controlled by medication or potentially affecting study treatment; Clinically significant abnormalities on ECG in 3 consecutive readings (at least 5 minutes apart each) or mean QTcB ≥450 ms;
• Other severe organic diseases or psychiatric disorders;
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, interstitial lung disease, or clinically significant abnormal pulmonary function test results;
• Systemic corticosteroids (topical use allowed), hydroxyurea, immunomodulatory agents (e.g., α or γ interferon, GM-CSF, mTOR inhibitors, cyclosporine, thymosin, etc.) within 2 weeks prior to screening or planned use during the study (if long-term use exists);
• Chemotherapy within 2 weeks prior to cell injection, immunotherapy within 4 weeks, radiotherapy within 12 weeks prior to infusion, or other antineoplastic agents with insufficient washout period of less than 5 half-lives;
• Pregnant or lactating women, and female subjects planning pregnancy within 1 year after cell infusion;
• Subjects with any concurrent medical condition or disease that the investigator determines may interfere with study conduct;
• Receipt of other cellular or gene therapy products within 3 months prior to cell injection, or patients deemed unsuitable for enrollment by the investigator;
• Patients whom the investigator determines will have difficulty completing all study visits or procedures (including follow-up period), or with insufficient compliance; or patients deemed unsuitable for enrollment by the investigator.
