First-line RN1201 CAR-T for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma
Official title: An Exploratory Clinical Study on the Safety and Efficacy of RN1201 Injection as First-Line Treatment for Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma
Run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University · NCT07652138 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This early, small study tests a once-dosed, donor-derived CAR-T therapy (RN1201) in adults with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma to see if it is safe and if patients respond.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults aged 18-70 with BCMA-positive, newly diagnosed multiple myeloma and adequate organ function who are willing to participate.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with comorbidities or organ dysfunction that prevent safe CAR-T therapy, or those not responding to lymphodepletion, may not benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
In this single-arm Phase 1 trial, patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma receive lymphodepletion followed by a single infusion of RN1201, a BCMA/CD19-targeted allogeneic CAR-T cell therapy. The study uses a dose-escalation approach to characterize safety and tolerability, with secondary measures including overall response rate and minimal residual disease status. Primary endpoints focus on treatment-emergent adverse events, while secondary endpoints assess response depth. Participants must meet predefined organ function and performance status criteria and have confirmed BCMA-positive MM. The trial is conducted at The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University in Suzhou, China.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, patients could experience meaningful disease control with a potentially effective first-line cellular therapy.
How similar studies have gone: CAR-T approaches in myeloma have shown activity in other settings, but this exact first-line, allogeneic BCMA/CD19-targeted product is investigational.
