ctla-4 and pd-1 antibodies expressing muc1-car-t cells for muc1 positive advanced solid tumor

Conditions: Advanced Solid Tumor

Summary: this is a single-arm, open-label, one center clinical study, to determine the safety and efficacy of infusion of autologous t cells engineered to express immune checkpoint antibodies (ctla-4 and pd-1) and chimeric antigen receptor targeting muc1 in adult patients with muc1 positive, advanced recurrent or refractory malignant solid tumors.

this study will be conducted using a phase i/ii trial design to assess the safety and efficacy of the ctla-4 and pd-1 antibodies expressing muc1-car-t for patients with muc1 positive, advanced recurrent or refractory malignant solid tumors. muc1-car-t can specificly and effectively kill the muc1 positive cancer cells, ctla4 and pd-1 antibodies are secreted from the car-t cells could improve immunosuppression microenvironment, new car-t cells contain the advantages of car-t and immune checkpoint inhibitor, which is a promising therapeutic method for advanced solid tumors. the new car-t therapy is applied to clinical practice as bellow. t cells are prepared from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (pbmc) by leukapheresis, and then activated and engineered to express ctla-4 and pd-1 antibodies and chimeric antigen receptor targeting muc1. cells are proliferated in culture and returned to the patients by venous transfusion. a total of 40 patients may be enrolled in the study. the total duration of the study is expected to be approximately 24 months.

Eligibility criteria:
inclusion criteria: 1. patients with relapsed or refractory advanced solid malignancies (diagnosed by histology or cytology detection). 2. progressive disease and no response after at least second-line therapy. 3. gender unlimited, age from 18 years to 80 years. 4. life expectancy≥3 months. 5. eastern cooperative oncology group (ecog) performance status of 0-2. 6. adequate venous access for peripheral blood mononuclear cell (pbmc) apheresis, and no other contraindications. 7. immunohistochemistry (ihc) score of muc1 on tumor tissue ≥1+. 8. adequate hepatic function, renal function and bone marrow function (withhin 7 days before enrollment): white blood cell (wbc)≥3.0×10\^9/l; platelet≥100×10\^9/l; hemoglobin≥90 g/l; lymphocyte ≥0.7×10\^9/l; total bilirubin ≤2 times the upper limit of the normal value; alanine aminotransferase and aspartate transaminase (alt and ast) ≤2.5 times the upper limit of the normal value; serum creatinine ≤1.5 times the upper limit of the normal value. 9. there is no other treatments (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, etc.) within four weeks before enrollment. 10. there is at least one measurable tumor lesion. 11. patients have adequate ability to understand, sign informed consents and take part in the clinical research voluntarily. 12. female patients in child bearing period must have evidence of negative pregnancy test, and agree to take effective contraceptive measures until 4 months after cells infusion. exclusion criteria: 1. patients with two or more kinds of tumors. 2. patients with active viral or bacterial infection, and have failed to be controlled by anti-infective treatment. 3. patients with seropositive reponse of human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) and syphilis, or fail to control the hepatitis b virus or hepatitis c virus infection. 4. patients with active rheumatic diseases, organ transplantation and other diseases affecting the immune system seriously. 5. patients with severe heart and lung dysfunction. 6. patients with severe chronic diseases of kidney, liver and other important organs. 7. patients with any other serious illnesse that the investigators consider it will may affect the patient's treatments, follow-up or assessment, including any uncontrolled clinically significant neurological or psychiatric disorders, immunoregulatory diseases, metabolic diseases, infectious diseases and so on. 8. patients who take part in clinical trials of other drugs or biological therapy at present or within 30 days before enrollment. 9. patients who need long-term use of immunosuppressive drugs or patients who are undergoing treatment of autoimmune diseases. 10. patients who need long-term use of glucocorticoid. 11. women patients in gestation period or suckling period.
