CNCT19 for Patients With Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia After Failure ≥3 Lines of Therapy.

This is a Phase 1, single-arm, open-label, dose-escalation and dose-expansion study. The main purpose is to evaluate the safety and tolerability, efficacy of CNCT19 CAR T-cell therapy in patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia after failure of three or more lines of therapy. Participants will receive CNCT19 cell infusion after preconditioning, and they will receive a 1-year follow-up.

Treatment and study plan

CNCT19 CAR-T cell therapy

Biological

CNCT19 was a second-generation CAR T-cell with scFv derived from clone HI19α and 4-1BB/CD3-ζ costimulatory domain.

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence and the severity of the adverse event

    Time frame: Within 12 months

    Use Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 5 to assess the adverse event

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of patients with hematological response

    Time frame: Within 24 weeks

    Hematological response is mainly evaluated by hemoglobin (Hb), laboratory Indicators of hemolysis (serum bilirubin and lactate dehydrogenase) and blood transfusion.
