Safety and Efficacy of Anti-BCMA-GPRC5D CAR-T Cells Therapy in the Treatment of r/r MM

This is a single-center, open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of bispecific BCMA-GPRC5D CAR-T cells in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who received three or more lines of therapy.

This is a single-center, open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of bispecific BCMA-GPRC5D CAR-T cells in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who received three or more lines of therapy.A leukapheresis procedure will be performed to manufacture Anti-BCMA-GPRC5D chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) modified T cells. Prior to Anti-BCMA-GPRC5D CAR-T cells infusion subjects will receive lymphodepleting therapy with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide. After infusion, the safety and efficacy of CAR-T therapy was evaluated by investigators.
