Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 and older with CD33 positive acute myeloid leukemia who have not responded to previous treatments.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with acute myeloid leukemia that does not express CD33 or those who have not met the eligibility criteria may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This clinical trial is a single-arm, open-label, dose-escalation study aimed at evaluating the safety and efficacy of CD33 CAR-T cells in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The trial plans to enroll between 15 to 27 participants who meet specific eligibility criteria, including a confirmed diagnosis of CD33 positive AML. Participants will receive CD33 CAR-T cell therapy, and the study will monitor their response and any adverse effects throughout the treatment process.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this therapy could provide a new treatment option for patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies exploring CAR-T cell therapies have shown promising results, indicating potential success for this novel approach in treating AML.
