Detailed Description

This is a single arm, open-label, single-center study. This study is indicated for relapsed or refractory NKG2D ligand positive acute myeloid leukemia. The selections of dose levels and the number of subjects are based on clinical trials of similar foreign products. 36 patients will be enrolled. Primary objective is to explore the safety,main consideration is dose-related safety.

Interventions

  • Drug: NKG2D CAR T-cells
    • Each subject receive NKG2D CAR T-cells by intravenous infusion

Arms, Groups and Cohorts

  • Experimental: Administration of NKG2D CAR T-cells

Clinical Trial Outcome Measures

Primary Measures

  • Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT)
    • Time Frame: Baseline up to 28 days after NKG2D targeted CAR T-cells infusion
    • Adverse events assessed according to NCI-CTCAE v5.0 criteria
  • Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)
    • Time Frame: Up to 2 years after NKG2D targeted CAR T-cells infusion
    • Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events [Safety and Tolerability]

Secondary Measures

  • Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), Overall response rate (ORR)
    • Time Frame: At Month 1, 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24
    • Assessment of ORR (ORR = CR + CRi) at Month 1, 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24
  • AML, Overall survival (OS)
    • Time Frame: Up to 2 years after NKG2D CAR-T cells infusion
    • . AML, Overall survival (OS) From the first infusion of NKG2D CAR-T cells to death or the last visit
  • AML, Event-free survival (EFS)
    • Time Frame: Up to 2 years after NKG2D CAR-T cells infusion
    • From the first infusion of NKG2D CAR-T cells to the occurrence of any event, including death, relapse or gene relapse disease progression (any one occurs first), and the last visit
  • Quality of life
    • Time Frame: :At Baseline, Month 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12
    • Assessment using European Organisation for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) scale [For item1-28: max score: 112, min score: 28, higher scores mean a better outcome; for item 28-29: max score: 14, min score: 2, higher scores mean a worse outcome] to measure Quality of life at Baseline, Month 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12
  • Activities of Daily Living (ADL) score
    • Time Frame: At Baseline, Month 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12
    • Assessment using Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale (Barthel Index) [max score: 100, min score: 0, higher scores mean a better outcome] at Baseline, Month 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12
  • Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) score
    • Time Frame: At Baseline, Month 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12
    • Assessment of Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) scale [max score: 56, min score: 14, higher scores mean a worse outcome] at Baseline, Month 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12
  • Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) score
    • Time Frame: At Baseline, Month 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12
    • Assessment using Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) [max score: 42, min score: 0, higher scores mean a worse outcome] at Baseline, Month 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12
