Investigating GCC2005 for patients with relapsed/refractory NK and T-cell malignancies

A Phase 1, Multicenter Trial to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, and Preliminary Efficacy of GCC2005 With Lymphodepleting Chemotherapy in Treatment of Patients With Relapsed or Refractory NK and T-cell Malignancies

Phase 1 Interventional GC Cell Corporation · NCT06699771

This study is testing a new treatment called GCC2005 to see if it is safe and effective for people with certain types of blood cancers that have not responded to previous therapies.

What this trial studies

This Phase 1 clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of GCC2005 in patients with relapsed or refractory NK and T-cell malignancies that express CD5. The study is divided into two parts: Phase 1a focuses on establishing a well-tolerated dose range and safety profile, while Phase 1b aims to optimize the dose to determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose. Participants must have previously undergone at least two lines of therapy and have measurable disease as defined by specific criteria.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are patients with relapsed or refractory CD5+ NK and T-cell malignancies who have received at least two prior lines of therapy.

Not a fit: Patients with T-ALL/T-LBL, CTCL, or CNS involvement will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with difficult-to-treat NK and T-cell malignancies.

How similar studies have performed: While this approach is novel for GCC2005, similar studies targeting NK and T-cell malignancies have shown promise in the past.
