C-CAR168 CAR T-Cell Therapy for the Treatment of Lupus Nephritis Refractory to Standard Therapy

This Phase 2, multicenter, open-label study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single infusion of autologous anti-CD20/BCMA chimeric antigen receptor T cells (C-CAR168) following lymphodepleting chemotherapy in participants with refractory lupus nephritis who are not responding to standard therapy. Approximately 50 participants will undergo leukapheresis, lymphodepletion with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, and infusion of C-CAR168. Participants will be followed for 104 weeks (approximately 2 years) to evaluate renal response, safety, CAR T-cell persistence, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, and biomarkers. Long-term safety follow-up for gene therapy-related events will continue for up to 15 years following CAR T-cell infusion.
