About this trial

This is a single-arm, open-label, phase I/II clinical trial initiated by investigators to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of CD7-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CD7 CAR-T) combined with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with relapsed or refractory CD7-positive T-cell lymphomas. Phase I adopts a standard 3+3 dose-escalation design to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). Phase II expands at the RP2D to further assess efficacy. The study includes lymphodepletion chemotherapy, ASCT, and sequential infusion of CD7 CAR-T cells. The primary objectives include: (1) Evaluate safety/tolerability of CD7 CAR-T + auto-HSCT in relapsed or refractory CD7-positive T-cell lymphomas. (2) Determine MTD and RP2D. The secondary objectives include: (1) Assess efficacy (overall response rate, complete response, duration of response, progression-free survival and overall survival. (2)Characterize PK/PD profiles. (3)Investigate anti-tumor mechanisms.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Age range: 14 to 65 years old. Both men and women are eligible;

All types of CD7+ T-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (except T-lymphoblastic lymphoma) diagnosed according to the World Health Organization's classification of hematopoietic and lymphoid tissue tumors (2022);

For patients with T-cell lymphoma who are refractory to the first-line chemotherapy regimen or who experience recurrence and resistance after at least the second-line chemotherapy regimen. The following criteria must be met: a. For those patients who had only received first-line treatment previously, if they did not achieve PR after at least 4 cycles of the first-line regimen, or if they did not achieve CR after at least 6 cycles of the first-line regimen; b. Those who experienced recurrence in the early stage (< 12 months) after complete remission; or those who experienced recurrence in the late stage (≥ 12 months) and did not achieve remission after one course of standard induction chemotherapy; c. Those who have not achieved remission after treatment with second-line or more chemotherapy regimens;

Disqualifiers
