Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18-75 with CDH17-positive advanced solid tumors who have exhausted standard treatment options.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with tumors that do not express CDH17 or those who are not eligible for lymphodepleting therapy 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 study is an open-label, single-arm trial aimed at assessing the safety and preliminary efficacy of anti-CDH17 CAR-T cell therapy in patients with advanced solid tumors that express the CDH17 marker. Participants will undergo a leukapheresis procedure to collect T cells, which will then be modified to target CDH17. Following this, patients will receive lymphodepleting therapy before the infusion of the CAR-T cells. The study will monitor the safety and effectiveness of this innovative treatment approach.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this therapy could provide a new treatment option for patients with advanced solid tumors that currently have limited effective therapies.
How similar studies have gone: While CAR-T therapies have shown promise in hematological malignancies, this specific approach targeting CDH17 in solid tumors is novel and has not been extensively tested in prior studies.
