About this trial
This single-arm, open-label, multicenter, Phase I study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, anti-tumor activity, pharmacokinetics (PK)/pharmacodynamics (PD), biomarker, and immunogenicity of C-CAR031 in adult participants with GPC3+ advanced/metastatic squamous cell lung cancer, who are not amenable to curative therapy and have progressed or are intolerant to no more than 3 lines of prior systemic treatment including immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) and platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, concurrently or sequentially.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Histologically or cytologically confirmed unresectable Stage IIIB ,IIIC or IV squamous cell lung cancer
Confirmed to express GPC3, as assessed by immunohistochemistry at a central lab
Participants who have progressed or intolerant to no more than three lines of prior systemic therapies for advanced/metastatic squamous cell lung cancer
At least one measurable target lesion
Disqualifiers
known to harbor a driver mutation for which targeted standard therapy is recommended in accordance with local treatment guidelines.
Known life-threatening allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to the CAR-T product or its excipients, including dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)
Contraindication to lymphodepleting agents, including fludarabine and/or cyclophosphamide.
History of splenectomy or organ transplantation
Trial design
Sequential
Treatments tested in this trial
C-CAR031
DrugC-CAR031 is an autologous CAR T-cell product that expresses a CAR specific for GPC3 and a dominant-negative transforming growth factor-beta receptor II (dnTGFβRII).
