In Vivo PICX CAR-T Therapy for R/R Multiple Myeloma

Recruiting now · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma (RRMM)

In brief

This study is an investigator-initiated, single-center, single-arm clinical study with a target population of patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. It is an early exploratory clinical study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of PICX Injection, an in vivo prepared CAR-T cell therapy, in the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Who can join

Age: 18 and older. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.

You may qualify if…

• Age ≥ 18 years, male or female;
• Confirmed diagnosis of multiple myeloma meeting at least one of the following criteria:
• Disease progression after at least 2 prior standard treatment regimens; or poor response to primary therapeutic agents (e.g., immunomodulatory agents, proteasome inhibitors)
• Disease progression within 18 months after first-line therapy
• Presence of features associated with high risk of disease relapse or progression (e.g., high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities);
• At least one measurable disease indicator:
• Serum M-protein ≥ 0.5 g/dL
• Urine M-protein ≥ 200 mg/24 hours
• Involved serum free light chain (sFLC) ≥ 10 mg/dL with an abnormal serum free light chain κ/λ ratio
• No evidence of extramedullary plasmacytoma (soft tissue plasmacytoma);
• ECOG performance status score 0-2;
• Expected survival period ≥ 3 months;
• Adequate bone marrow function within 1 month prior to screening:
• Hemoglobin ≥ 60 g/L;
• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 0.5 × 10⁹/L;
• Platelet count (PLT) ≥ 50 × 10⁹/L;
• Lymphocyte count ≥ 0.5 × 10⁹/L;
• CD3-positive T-cell absolute count ≥ 0.15 × 10⁹/L;
• Adequate vital organ function within 1 month prior to screening:
• Renal function: creatinine clearance rate (CrCl) ≥ 30 mL/min (calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault formula), or serum creatinine (Scr) ≤ 2.0 × upper limit of normal (ULN);
• Hepatic function: alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 3.0 × ULN; total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 2.0 × ULN (except for patients with congenital hyperbilirubinemia such as Gilbert's syndrome, in which case direct bilirubin may be ≤ 1.5 × ULN);
• Cardiac function: left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 40%; no clinically significant pericardial effusion; and no clinically significant electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities (e.g., severe arrhythmia, myocardial ischemia, conduction block);
• Pulmonary function: blood oxygen saturation (SpO₂) ≥ 90% without supplemental oxygen;
• Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test during the screening period and before study drug administration, and must not be lactating during the study;
• Men and women of childbearing potential must agree to use effective contraceptive measures (excluding unreliable methods such as rhythm method) from the time of signing the informed consent form until 1 year after the last dose of study drug, and must agree not to donate sperm or eggs;

You may not qualify if…

• Prior treatment with CAR-T therapy or other gene-modified cell therapy before screening;
• Presence of active central nervous system (CNS) involvement at screening (including brain parenchymal, meningeal, or spinal meningeal involvement, or positive cerebrospinal fluid for tumor cells), or other CNS diseases;
• Received the following anti-tumor therapies prior to PICX Injection infusion:
• Chemotherapy, combination therapy with proteasome inhibitors and immunomodulatory agents, or other systemic anti-tumor drug therapy within 14 days or at least 5 half-lives before infusion (excluding intrathecal chemotherapy, which must be discontinued at least 1 week prior to infusion);
• Radiotherapy to non-hematopoietic sites within 7 days, or to hematopoietic sites within 14 days before infusion;
• BCMA-targeting antibody-based therapy within 3 months before infusion;
• Active or uncontrolled infection requiring systemic treatment at screening (including bacterial, viral, fungal, or other infections);
• Presence of any of the following cardiac conditions:
• New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV congestive heart failure;
• Myocardial infarction, or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), or coronary stent placement within 6 months prior to screening;
• Clinically significant ventricular arrhythmia, or history of syncope of unknown cause (excluding vasovagal or dehydration-related);
• History of severe non-ischemic cardiomyopathy;
• Presence of other clinically significant diseases or conditions, including:
• Primary immunodeficiency disease;
• Cerebrovascular accident or seizure within 6 months prior to screening;
• Definite cognitive impairment or psychiatric/behavioral abnormalities (e.g., dementia, altered mental status), or severe psychiatric disorders;
• Parkinson's disease, Parkinsonism, or other movement disorders;
• Grade 2-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) or moderate to severe chronic GVHD within 4 weeks prior to screening;
• History of other malignancies other than multiple myeloma prior to screening, except for:
• Malignancies treated with curative intent with no known active disease for ≥ 2 years prior to enrollment;
• Adequately treated cervical carcinoma in situ, basal cell or squamous cell skin carcinoma, localized prostate cancer after radical surgery, or ductal carcinoma in situ after radical surgery;
• Vaccination with live-attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to screening;
• Known severe hypersensitivity to PICX Injection or any of its formulation components;
• Inability to establish venous access;
• Other conditions deemed by the investigator to be unsuitable for participation in the study.
