Brief summary: A single-center, single-arm, dose-escalation exploratory clinical trial of the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of XKDCT225 cell injection in Claudin18.2-positive advanced solid tumors

Detailed description: This study is a prospective, single-arm, open-label, single-dose dose-finding study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and anti-tumor efficacy characteristics of XKDCT225 cell injection preparation in subjects with Claudin18.2-positive advanced solid tumors.

The study will enroll subjects with pathologically confirmed advanced solid tumors, positive Claudin18.2 expression, who have previously received standard treatment, failed treatment or cannot tolerate it. Imaging examinations show evaluable tumor lesions.

This study adopts a single-arm, single-center, dose-escalation design, and uses "accelerated titration" and "3+3" trial designs for dose escalation . It is expected to include 9-18 patients to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of XKDCT225 cell injection .

Main purpose:

the safety and tolerability of XKDCT225 cell injection in patients with Claudin18.2-positive advanced solid malignancies.

Secondary Purpose:

the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics of XKDCT225 cell injection in patients with Claudin18.2-positive advanced solid malignancies; To preliminarily evaluate the efficacy of XKDCT225 cell injection in patients with Claudin18.2-positive advanced solid malignancies.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

2. Patients with advanced solid tumors (including but not limited to gastric adenocarcinoma, esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma, esophageal adenocarcinoma) with moderate to high expression of Claudin18.2 (expression intensity ≥ 2+ and tumor cell positive rate ≥ 50 %), and whose condition cannot be completely relieved or continues to progress after adequate treatment;
3. At least one measurable lesion according to RECIST 1.1 criteria (non-lymph node lesion with long diameter ≥10 mm, lymph node lesion with short diameter ≥15 mm);
4. Estimated life expectancy \> 12 weeks;
5. ECOG physical status score 0 \~ 1;
6. Laboratory test values for screening must meet the following criteria:

Female subjects of childbearing age must undergo a serum pregnancy study with negative results at screening and before purging, and be willing to use medically approved highly effective contraceptive methods during the study and for at least 1 year after the last study treatment. Male subjects whose partners are female subjects of childbearing age should undergo surgical sterilization or agree to use effective contraceptive methods during the study and for at least 1 year after the last study treatment, and are prohibited from donating sperm within 1 year.

  8. If the patient is using the following medications, the corresponding conditions must be met:
* Steroids: Therapeutic doses of steroids must be discontinued 4 weeks prior to XKDCT 225 cell injection. However, physiological replacement doses of steroids are allowed: hydrocortisone or equivalent \<6\~ 12mg / mm\^2 / day ;
* Immunosuppression: Any immunosuppressive drugs must be stopped ≥ 4 weeks before enrollment; 9. Volunteer to participate in the clinical trial and sign the informed consent.
