New treatment option for Ovarian Cancer
Official title Sequential CD146 and GPC3 CAR-T Cell Therapy in Advanced Ovarian Cancer
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07067255
What this study is testing
What is GPC3 CD146 CAR-T cells?
GPC3 CD146 CAR-T cells is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for ovarian cancer.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a multicenter, open-label Phase 1/2 clinical trial evaluating the safety and preliminary efficacy of sequentially administered CD146-targeted and GPC3-targeted CAR-T cell therapy in patients with advanced relapsed or refractory ovarian cancer. Eligible patients will undergo lymphodepleting chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine, followed by an infusion of autologous CD146-directed CAR-T cells (Arm A) and a subsequent infusion of autologous GPC3-directed CAR-T cells (Arm B).
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Time commitment: about 36 months
