About this trial

This investigator-initiated trial aims to assess the efficacy and safety of combination therapy using universal CAR-T cells targeting BCMA and CD19 in refractory lupus nephritis.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Aged 18-65 years; both genders eligible.

Subjects diagnosed with lupus nephritis.

Previous treatment outcomes were unsatisfactory.

Diagnosis of active nephritis type III or IV with or without type V according to 2018 International Society of Nephrology and Society of Renal Pathology (ISN/RPS) criteria.

Disqualifiers

History of solid organ transplantation.

Malignant tumor within the last two years.

Positive for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or Hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb), with peripheral blood Hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA detected as positive; positive for Hepatitis C virus antibodies, with peripheral blood Hepatitis C virus RNA detected as positive; positive for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) antibodies; positive for Cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA; positive for syphilis.

Primary immunodeficiency (congenital or acquired).

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

AEs

The total number, incidence, and severity of AE

Time frame
Within 6 months after BCMA CART and CD19 CART infusion

Secondary outcomes

1

ORR (CR and PR)

Complete response (CR) was defined as serum creatinine ≤ 1.2 mg/dl or ≤ 125% of baseline value, and urine protein/creatinine ratio \< 0.5 or 24-hour urine protein quantification \< 0.5 g, and prednisone dose reduction to ≤ 10 mg/d (or equivalent dose). Partial response (PR) was defined as if both serum creatinine and urine protein/creatinine ratio (or 24-hour urine protein quantification) were abnormal before treatment, both items improved by \> 30% after treatment, without other indicators of deterioration; if only urine protein/creatinine ratio (or 24-hour urine protein quantification) was abnormal before treatment, the improvement was \> 50% after treatment.

Time frame
At 6 months after BCMA CART and CD19 CART infusion

Other outcomes

1

PK/PD

Changes and duration of CAR gene copy number and CAR-T cell number in peripheral blood after BCMA CART and CD19 CART infusion

Time frame
Within 3 months after BCMA CART and CD19 CART infusion
