Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, China6 enrolled
Overview
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.
CNCT19 was a second-generation CAR T-cell with scFv derived from clone HI19α and 4-1BB/CD3-ζ costimulatory domain.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Incidence and the severity of the adverse event
Use Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 5 to assess the adverse event
Time frame: Within 12 months
Secondary Outcomes
Percentage of patients with hematological response
Hematological response is mainly evaluated by hemoglobin (Hb), laboratory Indicators of hemolysis (serum bilirubin and lactate dehydrogenase) and blood transfusion.
