Using stem cell transplantation with C-CAR088 to treat ultra high-risk multiple myeloma
Official title: The Safety and Efficacy of Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (ASCT) in Combination With C-CAR088, an Autologous BCMA CAR-T Cell Product, for Treating Patients With Ultra High-risk Multiple Myeloma
Run by Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, China · NCT05632380 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing a new treatment combining stem cell transplantation and a special CAR-T cell therapy to see if it can help people with ultra high-risk multiple myeloma who haven't responded well to other treatments.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are males and females aged 18 to 65 with ultra high-risk multiple myeloma who have not responded to front line VRD-based treatment.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with prior allogenic or autologous stem cell transplants, CNS involvement, or severe comorbidities may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This phase I/II clinical trial investigates the combination of autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and C-CAR088, an autologous BCMA CAR-T cell therapy, for patients with ultra high-risk multiple myeloma. Participants will undergo leukapheresis, stem cell collection, conditioning, and receive a single dose of C-CAR088 three days after ASCT. The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of this treatment approach over a period of 24 months, with close monitoring during the initial three months. The trial aims to provide a new therapeutic option for patients who have not responded adequately to standard treatments.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could significantly improve outcomes for patients with ultra high-risk multiple myeloma who have limited treatment options.
How similar studies have gone: While the combination of ASCT and CAR-T therapies is a novel approach, similar studies have shown promise in treating other hematological malignancies.
