Safety and Efficacy of RD133 in Subjects With Relapsed or Refractory MSLN-Positive Solid Tumors

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This study is a single-center exploratory clinical trial. It is estimated that 9-24 subjects will be enrolled. The 3+3 dose escalation design is adopted. The main purpose is to evaluate the safety of RD133 in the treatment of subjects with relapsed or refractory MSLN-positive solid tumors and explore the Recommend phase II dose of RD133 in the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory MSLN-positive solid tumors.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Leukapheresis procedure will be performed to manufacture RD133 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 RD133 at 1.0, 3.0, or 6.0x 10^6 CAR+ T cells/Kg. Subjects will be followed in the study for a minimum of 2 years after RD133 infusion. Long-term follow-up for lentiviral vector safety will be followed for up to 15 years after RD133 infusion.

Subject with hypertension that cannot be controlled by medication. The toxicity of previous treatment has not been relieved to baseline or ≤1(NCI-CTCAE v5.0, except for hair loss and laboratory abnormalities without clinical significance).

Design Details

Primary Purpose: Treatment
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Interventional Model Description: The study is a single center, open label, non-controlled, exploratory study. The 3+3 dose escalation design will be implemented to evaluate the safety and tolerability of RD133 in the treatment of subjects with relapsed/refractory MSLN-positive solid tumors.
Masking: None (Open Label)


Arms and Interventions

| Participant Group/Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
| --- | --- |
| Experimental: RD133 treatment group<br>Administration of RD133 Three dose groups of 1.0×10^6 CAR-T/kg, 3.0×10^6 CAR-T/kg, and 6.0×10^6 CAR-T/kg RD133 are designed in this study. 3 to 6 subjects are expected to be enrolled in each dose group according to observed DLT. RD133 will be intravenously infused at least 24 hours after lymphodepletion preconditioning. According to the assigned dose group, the designated dose of RD133 will be infused in a single infusion within 30 minutes on day 0. | Drug: RD133<br>* The enhanced MSLN-CAR-T cell design of this study is obtained by co-infecting T cells with two lentiviral vectors. One lentiviral vector expresses CD19-CAR and tEGFR molecular safety switch, and the other lentiviral vector expresses MSLN- CAR and dnTGFβRII receptors. dnTGFβRII receptor without intracellular signal is used to resist the inhibition of T cell function by the immune microenvironment of tumor tissue. In addition, for the safety of CAR-T cell application in vivo, tEGFR is used in the CAR design as a molecular safety switch for CAR-T cells.<br>|
