Trial Identification

Brief Title: A Study of GPC3 Redirected Autologous T Cells for Advanced HCC

Official Title: An Open-label, Uncontrolled, Single-arm Pilot Study to Evaluate Vascular Interventional Therapy Mediated GPC3-targeted Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells in Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Study ID: NCT02715362

Conditions

Carcinoma, Hepatocellular

Interventions

TAI-GPC3-CART cells

Study Description

Brief Summary: Intravenous infusion of CART cells in the treatment of solid tumors may be not a suitable choice. Because by intravenous infusion, T cells first entered into the blood circulation, but the number of T cells accumulated at the tumor site is limited, while the probability is high that CART cells contact with normal tissue where target protein is expressed, leading to a more potential off-target side effect. In this study, CART cells infused to the body is mediated by the method of transcatheter arterial infusion(TAI), which is one kind of tumor intervention therapy pathway. We hope by this means could improve the local CAR-T cell numbers，meanwhile reduce the potential side effects.

Detailed Description: Patients treated with leukapheresis from which peripheral blood mononuclear cells are purified. T cells are activated and then re-engineered to express chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) specific for GPC3. Cells are expanded in culture and returned to the participant by transcatheter arterial infusion at the dose of .(1-10)×106 CAR positive T cells/kg. The cells perfusion process would last for 15min to 2 h via an ambulatory infusion pump. A single dose of 1.5 grams/m2 of cyclophosphamide will be given two days before CART cell infusion.
