Relapsed or refractory acute leukemia (R/R AL) is a life-threatening blood cancer with poor outcomes and limited treatment options. PID23 Injection is an innovative in vivo CAR-T therapy that delivers a viral vector encoding three targets (CD19, BCMA, and CD70) directly into patients, enabling their own T cells to generate functional CAR-T cells against leukemia cells. This single-center, single-arm, open-label, dose-escalation study (3 dose levels: 0.8×10⁹, 2×10⁹, and 4×10⁹ TU) plans to enroll 3-18 patients with R/R AL aged 3-75 years, ECOG 0-2, and positive for at least one target. The primary objective is to evaluate safety, tolerability, and determine the recommended dose. Secondary objectives include preliminary efficacy (remission, survival), pharmacokinetics (CAR-T expansion), pharmacodynamics (cytokine changes), and exploratory viral clearance. After a single intravenous infusion, patients are hospitalized for ≥3 weeks, followed by monthly visits for 3 months, then every 3 months for up to 2 years. Enrollment is from May 2026 to May 2027, with follow-up through May 2029. The study is conducted at Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University (PI: Prof. Li Yuhua).

5.Grade 2-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) or moderate-to-severe chronic GVHD within 4 weeks prior to screening.
6.Cerebrovascular accident or seizure within 6 months prior to screening. 7.Deep vein or arterial thrombosis event within 6 months prior to screening. 8.Active malignancy other than acute leukemia (excluding: inactive disease with treatment completed >2 years; adequately treated cervical carcinoma in situ, basal/squamous cell skin carcinoma, localized prostate cancer post-curative surgery, ductal carcinoma in situ post-curative surgery).

PID23 is an in vivo CAR-T product, a lentiviral vector encoding CD19, BCMA, and CD70 chimeric antigen receptors, administered as a single intravenous infusion
Time frame: Up to 21 days post-PID23 infusion
Number of participants experiencing DLTs during the DLT observation period. DLT is defined as any treatment-emergent adverse event meeting protocol-specified severity criteria assessed per CTCAE v6.0 and ASTCT criteria for CRS/ICANS.
Time frame: Up to 2 years post-PID23 infusion
Number and percentage of participants experiencing adverse events (AEs), graded per CTCAE v6.0. Includes all AEs, serious AEs (SAEs), and AEs of special interest (CRS, ICANS, HLH/MAS). Causality assessment performed by the investigator.
Time frame: At 3 months post-infusion
Proportion of participants achieving complete remission (CR) or CR with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi) at 3 months post-infusion. CR defined as bone marrow blasts <5%, no peripheral blasts, ANC ≥1.0×10⁹/L, platelets ≥100×10⁹/L, no extramedullary disease. CRi defined as meeting all CR criteria except platelet <100×10⁹/L and/or ANC <1.0×10⁹/L.
Time frame: Up to 2 years post-infusion
Time from first documented CR or CRi to first documented disease progression (PD) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Participants who do not achieve CR/CRi are not applicable for this analysis. Assessed per protocol until 2 years post-infusion.
Time frame: Up to 2 years post-infusion
Time from PID23 infusion to first documented disease progression (PD) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Participants alive without progression are censored at the date of last disease assessment. Assessed per protocol through 2 years post-infusion or until event.
Time frame: Up to 2 years post-infusion
Time from PID23 infusion to death from any cause. Participants alive at the end of follow-up are censored at the date of last known survival status. Assessed through 2 years post-infusion or until death, whichever occurs first.
Time frame: Baseline through 2 years post-infusion
Change from baseline in percentage of bone marrow blasts assessed by bone marrow morphology. Measured at screening and at protocol-specified follow-up time points (M1, M2, M3, and every 3 months thereafter). Assessed per protocol schedule.
Time frame: Day 0 through 2 years post-infusion
Maximum concentration (Cmax) of CAR-T cells in peripheral blood, measured as CAR DNA copy number by quantitative PCR (copies/μg DNA) and/or percentage of CAR+ cells by flow cytometry. Blood samples collected at protocol-specified time points: 0h, 30min, 2h, 6h, 12h, D2, D4, D7, D10, D14, D21, M1, M2, M3, and long-term follow-up. Samples analyzed by the technology partner.
Time frame: Day 0 through 2 years post-infusion
Time to reach maximum concentration (Tmax) of CAR-T cells in peripheral blood, measured as CAR DNA copy number by quantitative PCR. Blood samples collected at protocol-specified time points from immediately post-infusion through long-term follow-up. Tmax determined from the concentration-time profile.
Time frame: Day 0 through Day 28
Area under the concentration-time curve from Day 0 to Day 28 (AUC0-28d) of CAR-T cells in peripheral blood, measured as CAR DNA copy number by quantitative PCR. Calculated using the linear trapezoidal rule. Blood samples collected at protocol-specified time points through Day 28.
Time frame: Baseline through Month 1
Change from baseline in serum cytokine concentrations, including but not limited to IL-6, IL-1β, IL-2/IL-2R, IL-8, IL-10, TNF-α, IFN-γ, CRP, and ferritin. Blood samples collected at protocol-specified time points: screening, D0 (pre-infusion), D2, D4, D7, D10, D14, and M1.
Time frame: Day 0 through Month 1 or until two consecutive negatives, whichever came first
Detection of viral vector sequences in body fluid samples including blood, saliva, urine, and stool. Viral clearance is defined as two consecutive negative results. Samples collected at protocol-specified time points: 0h, 30min, 2h, 6h, 12h, D2, D4, D7, D10, D14, D21, and M1. Samples may be stored at -80°C and shipped in batches to the technology partner for analysis. Viral clearance assessed until two consecutive negative results are obtained.
