Clinical Trial Summary

This study is a single-armed, open-label, multicenter Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CT103A in subjects with relapsed and refractory MM.

Description:

Leukapheresis procedure will be performed to manufacture CT103A chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) modified T cells. Bridging therapy is allowed between PBMC collection and lymphodepletion. Lymphodepletion with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide was performed for three consecutive days. After 1-day rest, subjects will receive a single dose infusion of CT103A at 1.0 x 10^6 CAR+ T cells/Kg. Subjects will be followed in the study for a minimum of 2 years after CT103A infusion. Long-term follow-up for lentiviral vector safety will be followed for up to 15 years after CT103A infusion.

5. Subjects who were receiving a used therapeutic dose of corticosteroid treatment (defined as prednisone or equivalent > 20mg) within 7 days prior to screening, except for physiological alternatives, inhalation, or topical use.

6. Subjects with serious heart disease: including but not limited to unstable angina, myocardial infarction (within 6 months prior to screening), congestive heart failure (NYHA classification =III), and severe arrhythmias.

7. Subjects with systemic diseases that the investigator determined to be unstable include, but are not limited to, severe liver and kidney or metabolic diseases requiring medical treatment.

8. Subjects with second malignancies in addition to MM within the past 5 years before the screening, exceptions to this criterion: successfully treated cervical carcinoma in situ and non-metastatic basal or squamous cell skin carcinoma, local prostate cancer after radical surgery, and ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast after radical surgery.

9. Subjects with a history of organ transplantation.

10. Subjects have central nervous system (CNS) involvement (including cranial neuropathies or mass lesions and leptomeningeal disease).

11. Subjects with extramedullary lesions (except for a single extramedullary lesion with a maximum transverse diameter of 3 cm).

12. Subjects with plasma cell leukemia.

13. Subjects have received major surgery within 2 weeks prior to leukapheresis or plan to receive surgery during the study or within 2 weeks after the study treatment (excluding local anesthesia).

14. Subjects participated in another interventional clinical study 3 months before signing the informed consent (ICF);

15. Subjects with any uncontrolled active infection needed to receive systemic therapy within 7 days before leukapheresis collection (excluding < CTCAE grade 2 urogenital infection and upper respiratory infection).

16. Positive for any of the following tests:

• Hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis B core antibody-positive and detectable HBV DNA in peripheral blood

• Hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody and hepatitis C virus RNA in peripheral blood

• Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody

• Cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA

• Treponema Pallidum antibody

17. Pregnant or lactating women.
