ALPP CAR-T Cells for ALPP-Positive Advanced Solid Tumors

This is a single-center, open-label, study of CAR-T cells for the treatment of the recurrent/metastatic solid tumors patients who had failed standard therapy.

Objective:

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of CAR-T cells in the treatment of advanced solid tumors.

Eligibility:

Adults aging 18-70 with advanced solid tumors

Design:

• Patients will undergo a comprehensive set of screening tests, including imaging procedures, evaluation of cardiac and pulmonary function, as well as a range of laboratory assessments.
• After meeting the eligibility criteria and enrolling in the trial, patients will undergo leukapheresis for collection of autologous lymphocytes, which will be sent to manufacturing facilities.
• Once cells have been manufactured, patients will then proceed to lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by the infusion of ALPP CAR T-cells.

Inclusion criteria

• Be able to understand and sign the Informed of Consent Document. Be willing to follow the procedure and protocol of the clinical trial;
• Age 18-70 (including boundary value), both male and female;
• Expected life span is more than 3 months from the date of signing the informed consent;
• ECOG score 0-1;
• Metastatic or recurrent solid tumors confirmed by histopathology;
• Refractory to standard treatment evaluated by radiological assessment;
• Be able provide fresh or preserved tissue specimen;
• At least 1 measurable lesion (according to RECIST 1.1);
• ALPP expression positivity determined by IHC；
• The organ marrow function of the subjects meets the following requirements:

• Marrow function：ANC≥ 1.5×109/L; PLT count≥ 75×109/L; HGB≥ 90 g/L;
• Coagulation function: Prothrombin Time (PT)≤ 1.5 times the Upper Limit of Normal (ULN), International Normalized Ratio (INR)≤ 1.5 times ULN, and Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT)≤ 1.5 times ULN;
• Liver function: ALT and AST≤ 2.5 times ULN (in cases of liver transfer/infiltration, ≤ 5.0 times ULN); Total Bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 times ULN (with Gilbert's syndrome, <3×ULN);
• Renal function: Serum Creatinine (Cr)≤ 1.5 times ULN or Creatinine Clearance Rate (CrCl) ≥ 60ml/min;
• Cardiac function: Left Ventricular Ejection Fractions (LVEF)≥45%;
• Pulmonary function: Forced Expiratory Volume in the first second (FEV1) ≥ 50%.
• Prior to the first dose, subjects must have recovered from toxic effects of previous treatment (CTCAE grade ≤ 1, with the exception of specific criteria such as "alopecia"), and the investigator determines that the corresponding adverse events do not pose a safety risk.
• For male or female subjects of childbearing potential: from the time of signing the ICF until at least 24 weeks after the last dose, they must agree to practice abstinence or use effective contraceptive methods, including intrauterine devices, etc.

Note: Women of childbearing potential who have undergone surgical sterilization (including hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or salpingectomy) or who have been postmenopausal for more than 24 months are considered to have no potential for pregnancy.

• A suitable venous access for the necessary blood collection can be established, and there are no contraindications for leukapheresis.
