Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have received at least three prior lines of therapy.

Probably not a fit

Patients with invasive malignancies or those who do not meet the specific eligibility criteria may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a phase 1b/2, open-label, multicenter clinical trial evaluating GC012F (AZD0120), a dual CAR T-cell therapy targeting CD19 and BCMA, in adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. The study aims to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of the treatment in the first phase, while the second phase focuses on evaluating its efficacy and further characterizing safety and quality of life changes. Participants will receive the treatment after meeting specific eligibility criteria, including prior therapies and measurable disease.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this therapy could provide a new treatment option for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with CAR T-cell therapies in treating multiple myeloma, indicating a potential for success with this novel approach.
