About this study

This study consists of a screening period of up to 4 weeks, a treatment period, and a follow-up period of 1 year.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Age: 18-80 years, no gender restriction;
  • Confirmed diagnosis of generalized myasthenia gravis (MG) with positive AchR or MuSK antibodies, meeting at least one of the following conditions#(1) Repetitive nerve stimulation suggesting neuromuscular transmission defect; (2) Positive response to neostigmine test; (3) Clinically judged improvement of --MG symptoms after oral cholinesterase inhibitor therapy;
  • Clinical classification of MG according to MGFA types IIa-IVb (including IIa, IIb, IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb);
  • Baseline MG-ADL score ≥6, ocular-related score <50%;
  • Poor response and/or lack of efficacy under standard therapies;
  • Minimum life expectancy > 12 weeks;
  • Adequate bone marrow, coagulation, cardiopulmonary, liver, and renal function.

Exclusion criteria

  • Subjects positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and/or hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) with detectable or quantifiable HBV DNA, positive for hepatitis C antibody (HCV Ab) with detectable or quantifiable HCV RNA, positive for HIV antibody, positive CMV DNA, or CMV DNA above the lower limit of detection; positive for syphilis antigen or antibody;
  • Presence of other uncontrolled active infections;
  • History of major organ transplantation (e.g., heart, lung, liver, kidney) or bone marrow/hematopoietic stem cell transplantation;
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women;
  • Receipt of any mRNA-LNP products or other LNP-based drugs within the past two years;
  • History of any of the following cardiovascular conditions within 6 months prior to screening: New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV heart failure, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, uncontrolled or symptomatic atrial arrhythmias, any ventricular arrhythmias, or other clinically significant cardiac disease;
  • History of ≥Grade 2 bleeding events within 30 days prior to screening, or requiring long-term continuous anticoagulation therapy (e.g., warfarin, low molecular weight heparin, Xa factor inhibitors);
  • History of live vaccination within 30 days prior to screening;
  • Severe central nervous system diseases or pathological changes, including but not limited to: cerebrovascular accident, aneurysm, epilepsy, seizures/convulsions, aphasia, stroke, severe brain injury, dementia, Parkinson's disease, cerebellar disorders, organic brain syndromes, or psychosis;
  • History of asthma or severe allergies;
  • Patients combined with other malignant tumors;
  • Any condition that, in the investigator's opinion, may increase the patient's risk or interfere with study assessments.

Treatment and study plan

HN2301 injection

Drug

Dosing will begin at a lower dose level and may be escalated to dose levels considered safe and potentially effective according to the study protocol.

Other names: in vivo CAR-T

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)

    Time frame: Up to 3 months

    Incidence, nature, and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events, assessed according to the study protocol and applicable toxicity grading criteria.

Secondary outcomes

  1. in vivo CAR T cell production

    Time frame: Up to14 days

    Assessment of in vivo CAR-T cell production, defined by the proportion of CAR-expressing T cells in peripheral blood as measured by flow cytometry.

  2. Absolute B-cell count in peripheral blood

    Time frame: Up to 12 months

    Assessment of peripheral blood absolute B-cell count (cells/μL), including naive B cells and memory B cells, by flow cytometry.

  3. Changes from baseline in Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living(MG-ADL) score

    Time frame: Up to 12 months]

    Proportion of patients ≥2 points. A total score can fall between 0 and 24, with a higher score representing a more significant degree of disease activity.

  4. Changes from baseline in Myasthenia Gravis Composite (MGC) score

    Time frame: Up to 12 months

    Proportion of patients ≥3-point reduction.The total score is 50 points. The higher the score, the more severe the condition is indicated.

  5. Changes from baseline in Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) score

    Time frame: Up to 12 months]

    Proportion of patients ≥3-point reduction. To assess the muscle strength and endurance of the affected muscles in patients with myasthenia gravis, thereby reflecting the severity of the disease,including 8 items, each scored on a scale of 0 to 3, with 3 indicating the most severe degree.

  6. Changes from baseline in revised Myasthenia Gravis Quality of Life-15 score (MG-QOL15r)

    Time frame: Up to 12 months

    To assess important aspects of the patient's experience related to MG, scores each of 15 items 0-2 (max score 30).The higher the score, the worse the patient's quality of life.

  7. Changes in acetylcholine receptor (AchR) antibody levels after treatment

    Time frame: Up to 12 months

    Differences in AchR antibody post-administration vs. baseline
