About

This single-arm, multicenter clinical study will treat the patient who have relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma with an infusion of the patient's own T cells that have been genetically modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor(CAR)that will bind to tumour cells modified to express the GD2 protein on the cell surface. The study will determine if these modified T cells help the body's immune system eliminate tumour cells .The trial will also study the safety of treatment for CAR-T, how long CAR-T cells stay in the patient's body and the impact on this treatment for survival.

Full description

This is a single-arm, multicenter clinical study to evaluate efficacy and safety of chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy (CAR-T) in the treatment of relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma in children. The study will be conducted using a phaseⅠ/Ⅱdesign the study will have the following sequential phases: part A (screening, leukapheresis,cell product preparation and cytoreductive chemotherapy) and part B (treatment and follow-up). the follow-up period for each participant is approximately 35 months after the final CAR-T infusion. The total duration of the study are expected to be approximately 3 years. A total of 22 patients may be enrolled over a period of 3 years.

Enrollment: 22 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 1 to 14 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

1. Up to diagnostic criteria for relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma or high-risk patients，including:

   • Relapsed neuroblastoma : Children diagnosed with neuroblastoma who after standard treatment and remission, present lesions again and cannot reach complete remission with surgery.
   • Refractory neuroblastoma : ① Untreated patients that do not have to reach completes remission after 4 courses of chemotherapy in accordance with standard regimens nor reach complete remission with surgery. ② High-risk patients : Who have cell genetic variation, such as MYCN amplification or bone marrow metastasis.

2. Relapsed or Refractory Neuroblastoma: Target, of which expression may be intervened , discovered with Immunohistochemistry can be selected (GD2 +) (more than 50% of tumor cells is at least 2+ , adopting anti-GD2-mAb14G2a ).

3. Age: 1~14 years old of age at the time of enrollment, male or female.
