This is a prospective, single-arm, open-label, dose-exploration and expansion clinical study of LCAR-AIO in adult subjects with relapsed/refractory autoimmune diseases.
This is a prospective, single-arm, open-label exploratory clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy profiles of LCAR-AIO, a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) -T cell therapy in subjects with relapsed/refractory autoimmune diseases. Patients who meet the eligibility criteria will receive LCAR-AIO infusion. The study will include the following sequential stages: screening, apheresis, pre-treatment (cell product preparation: lymphodepleting chemotherapy), treatment (LCAR AIO infusion) and follow-up.

Change in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI-2K) scores from baseline up to 104 weeks
• The SLEDAI-2K scale is a cumulative and weighted index used to assess disease activity across 24 different disease descriptors in patients with SLE. A total score can fall between 0 and 105, with a higher score representing a more significant degree of disease activity.
Time frame: Minimum 104 Weeks after LCAR-AIO infusion (Day 1)
Change in Birmingham vasculitis activity score (BVAS) from baseline up to 104 weeks
• The BVAS is a cumulative and weighted index used to assess disease activity across 9 organ systems in patients with AAV. A total score can fall between 0 and 64, with a higher score representing a more significant degree of disease activity.
Time frame: Minimum 104 Weeks after LCAR-AIO infusion (Day 1)
Change in modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS) from baseline up to 104 weeks
• The mRSS is a scale used to assess skin thickness and scope of SSc patients by physically evaluating 17 positions. A total score can fall between 0 and 51, with a higher score representing a more significant degree of skin involvement.
Time frame: Minimum 104 Weeks after LCAR-AIO infusion (Day 1)
Change in manual muscle testing (MMT-8) score from baseline up to 104 weeks
• This validated tool assesses muscle strength through muscle testing an abbreviated group of 8 proximal, distal, and axial muscles in IIM patients. A total score can fall between 0 and 150, with a lower score representing a more significant degree of muscle involvement.
Time frame: Minimum 104 Weeks after LCAR-AIO infusion (Day 1)
Change in Physician global assessment (PGA) scores from baseline up to 104 weeks
• The physician will evaluating the global activity of AID patients by placing a vertical line on a 100-mm visual analog scale on which the left-hand boundary represents "no activity", and the right-hand boundary represents "the most severe activity".

Time frame: Minimum 104 Weeks after LCAR-AIO infusion (Day 1)
Changes from baseline in immunological markers and Immunogenicity (anti-drug antibody) from baseline up to 104 weeks
• Detection of Immunoglobulins, autoantibodies (anti-dsDNA antibody, anti-Smith antibody, etc.) and anti-drug antibody.
Time frame: Minimum 104 Weeks after LCAR-AIO infusion (Day 1)
Incidence, severity, and type of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)
• An adverse event refers to any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product (investigational or non-investigational), which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment.
Time frame: Minimum 104 Weeks after LCAR-AIO infusion (Day 1)
Incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT)
• DLTs are severe adverse events refers to any untoward medical occurred in a subject participated in a clinical investigation, which have a causal relationship with the treatment and will limit the dose escalation.
Time frame: 30 days after LCAR-AIO infusion (Day 1)
Pharmacokinetics in peripheral blood
• CAR positive T cells levels in peripheral blood after LCAR-AIO infusion.
Time frame: Minimum 104 Weeks after LCAR-AIO infusion (Day 1)
Recommended Dose regimen finding
Recommended Dose regimen established through dose exploratory.
Time frame: Maximum 104 Weeks after LCAR-AIO infusion (Day 1)
