Sponsor

Zhejiang University

Enrollment

9 participants

Start Date

Apr 30, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This is a single-arm, open-label, single-center, phase I study. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety of CD19 CAR-T therapy for patients with refractory myasthenia gravis, and to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of CD19 CAR-T in patients.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Inclusion Criteria11

  • \. Age ≥18 and gender unlimited;
  • \. Confirmed as refractory myasthenia gravis with AchR antibody positive and accord one of the following three conditions
  • Repeated electrical stimulation suggests neuromuscular conduction deficits;
  • Tensilon test and neostigmine test positive;
  • The doctor judged that the symptoms of MG improved after treatment with oral cholinease inhibitors;
  • \. Consistent with the clinical classification of MGFA myasthenia gravis IIa-IVb (including IIa,IIb,IIIa, IIIb, IVa,IVb)
  • \. The baseline MG-ADL score ≥5 and the musculi oculi related score< 50 ;
  • \. Baseline QMG score>11;
  • \. Regular treatment with poor efficacy and/or lack of effective treatment means that there is still recurrence or exacerbation after treatment with conventional hormones, immunosuppressants (such as azathioprine, mycophenolate mofetil, tacrolimus, cyclosporine A, cyclophosphamide, etc.) or rituximab;
  • \. The estimated survival time is more than 12 weeks;
  • \. Women of childbearing age who have negative urine pregnancy test before medication administration and agree to take effective contraceptive measures during the trial period until the last follow-up.

Exclusion Criteria13

  • \. Epilepsy history or other central nervous system disease;
  • \. During the screening visit, the patient's thymectomy was less than 12 months or thymectomy was necessary during the study period or thymic radiation therapy ;
  • \. Electrocardiogram shows prolonged QT interval, severe heart diseases such as severe arrhythm ia in the past;
  • \. Pregnant (or lactating) women;
  • \. Patients with severe active infections;
  • \. Active infection of hepatitis B virus or hepatitis C virus;
  • \. Systemic steroids have used in the 4 weeks before participating in the treatment (except recently or currently using inhaled steroids);
  • \. Those who have used any gene therapy products before;
  • \. The proiferation rate is less than 5 times response to CD3/CD28 co-stimulation signal;
  • \. Serum creatinine > 2.5mg/dl or ALT / AST > 3 times ULN or bilirubin > 2.0 mg /dl;
  • \. Those who suffer from other uncontrolled diseases are not suitable to join the study;
  • \. HIV infection;
  • \. Any situation that the researchers believe may increase the risk of patients or interfere with the test results.
