About this trial

This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of YTS109 cells in adults with relapsed/refractory autoimmune diseases, such as Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), Systemic Sclerosis (SSc), etc. Aproximately 6-12 patients aged 18-65 will receive a single infusion of YTS109 cells (1.5×10⁶ cells/kg). The main purpose of exploratory clinical research is to explore the efficacy and safety of YTS109 cell and the lymphodepletion regimen. The primary endpoint is observations of types, severity, and frequency of adverse events (AEs) and efficacy assessment. This single-arm, open-label trial will enroll patients across Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) General Hospital.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events

1. Efficacy Endpoint; 2. Types, severity, and frequency of adverse events (AEs).

Time frame
The efficacy endpoint evaluation for 2, 4, 8, 12 weeks, AEs observation will be follow-up for 24 weeks. The observation period is extended to 52 weeks.

Secondary outcomes

1

Efficacy Evaluation in relapsed/refractory autoimmune diseases

The proportion of subjects achieving complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or other responses.

Time frame
2, 4, 8, 12 weeks, and the observation will continue until 24 to 52 weeks post-treatment.
2

Maximum Plasma Concentration of YTS109 (Cmax)

To evaluate the metabolic characteristics of YTS109

Time frame
The detections will be conducted on day0, 4, 7, 10, and weeks 2, 3, 4. Then, observation will continue until 12 to 24 weeks post-treatment.
3

Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) of YTS109

To evaluate the metabolic characteristics of YTS109

Time frame
The detections will be conducted on day0, 4, 7, 10, and weeks 2, 3, 4. Then, observation will continue until 12 to 24 weeks post-treatment.
4

Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of YTS109

To evaluate the metabolic characteristics of YTS109

Time frame
The detections will be conducted on day0, 4, 7, 10, and weeks 2, 3, 4. Then, observation will continue until 12 to 24 weeks post-treatment.
