PD-1Ab21-BCMA CAR-T consolidation for multiple myeloma with renal dysfunction

Official title: Exploratory Clinical Study on PD-1Ab21-BCMA CAR-T Cells (CD203) for First-line Consolidation Therapy of Multiple Myeloma With Renal Dysfunction

Run by Chinese PLA General Hospital · NCT07489534 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This trial will test a BCMA-targeted CAR-T cell therapy that secretes a PD-1 antibody and interleukin-21 fusion protein as consolidation treatment for people with multiple myeloma who have kidney dysfunction.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

People over 14 with multiple myeloma and renal dysfunction who have had at least two courses of first-line treatment, achieved ≥ partial response, have ECOG 0–2 (or KPS >80), adequate blood counts and organ function, and expected survival >3 months.

Probably not a fit

Patients with uncontrolled active infections, pregnant or breastfeeding women, those with insufficient blood counts or organ function outside the trial limits, or those with very limited life expectancy are unlikely to benefit from this protocol.

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 2, interventional trial of autologous BCMA-directed CAR-T cells engineered to secrete a PD-1 antibody and IL-21 fusion protein given as consolidation after first-line therapy in patients with multiple myeloma and renal dysfunction. Eligible participants are over 14 years old, have received at least two courses of first-line treatment with at least a partial response, and must meet defined performance status and laboratory criteria. Treatment involves leukapheresis to collect patient T cells, ex vivo manufacture of the PD-1Ab21-BCMA CAR-T product, and infusion with inpatient monitoring for safety and efficacy endpoints. The study will track hematologic responses, renal function changes, and treatment-related toxicities at the Chinese PLA General Hospital in Beijing.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could deepen cancer responses, improve kidney function, and lower relapse risk after first-line therapy.

How similar studies have gone: Other BCMA-targeted CAR-T programs have shown high response rates and case series from Chinese centers report renal improvement after CAR-T, but the PD-1Ab21-secreting BCMA CAR-T construct is a novel variation with limited prior testing.
