About this trial

This Phase 1/2 study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of dual-targeting chimeric antigen receptor natural killer (CAR-NK) cells in participants with recurrent or refractory epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. At screening, each participant's tumor is assessed for expression of Mesothelin (MSLN), Folate Receptor alpha (FRalpha/FOLR1), and MUC16 (CA 125). Participants are assigned to the dual-target CAR-NK product that best matches their tumor antigen profile to reduce the risk of antigen escape.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Histologically confirmed epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal carcinoma (high-grade serous preferred).

Recurrent or refractory disease after at least 2 prior systemic treatment lines (including a platinum-based regimen unless contraindicated).

Measurable disease per RECIST v1.1.

Tumor expresses at least two of the following targets above protocol-defined threshold: MSLN, FRalpha (FOLR1), MUC16 (CA 125) (archival or fresh biopsy).

Disqualifiers

Prior gene-modified cellular therapy (e.g., CAR-T, CAR-NK) within 6 months (or any prior therapy directed to the same target, per protocol).

Active central nervous system (CNS) metastases or carcinomatous meningitis requiring therapy.

Uncontrolled infection, including active tuberculosis; or clinically significant, uncontrolled viral infection.

Known HIV infection with uncontrolled viremia; active hepatitis B or hepatitis C with detectable viral load (testing required at screening).
