About this study
Official title: RESET-MG: A Phase 1/2, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Autologous CD19-specific Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells (CABA-201) in Participants With Generalized Myasthenia Gravis
RESET-MG: A Phase 1/2 Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of CABA-201 in Participants with Generalized Myasthenia Gravis
Read the detailed description
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by autoantibody responses that cause defective transmission of signals at the neuromuscular junction, resulting in a distinctive pattern of weakness. Patients with generalized MG (gMG) typically experience symptoms associated with ocular disease in addition to weakness of many other voluntary muscle groups, including extremity, bulbar, and respiratory muscles. MG is considered a classic example of a B-cell mediated autoimmune disease. Currently, there are no curative treatments for MG. This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an investigational cell therapy, CABA-201, that can be given to patients with gMG. A single dose of CABA-201 in combination with cyclophosphamide (CY) and fludarabine (FLU) will be evaluated. In addition, escalating doses of CABA-201 will be evaluated in patients without CY and FLU preconditioning.

CABA-201Biological
Single intravenous infusion of CABA-201 at a single dose level following preconditioning with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide
CABA-201Biological
Single intravenous infusion of CABA-201 at escalating dose levels without preconditioning
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| CABA-201 | Experimental | AChR Antibody-Positive Cohort or AChR Antibody-Negative Cohort Receives: Biological: CABA-201 |

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
To evaluate incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs)
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal result of an investigation), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of study treatment. The term AE is used to include both serious and non-serious AEs.
Measured: Up to 28 days after CABA-201 infusion

An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal result of an investigation), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of study treatment. The term AE is used to include both serious and non-serious AEs.
Measured: Up to 156 weeks
To characterize the pharmacodynamics (PD)
Levels of B cells in the blood
Measured: Up to 156 weeks
To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK)
Levels of CABA-201-positive T cells in the blood
Measured: Up to 156 weeks
To evaluate disease-related biomarkers
Levels of MG-specific autoantibodies in the serum
Measured: Up to 156 weeks
To evaluate efficacy by change in Myasthenia Gravis - Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) score over time.
The MG-ADL scale is a validated instrument administered by a qualified assessor with 8 areas of activities of daily living as reported by patients: talking, chewing, swallowing, breathing, ability to brush teeth or comb hair, ability to rise from a chair, double vision, and eyelid droop. In each area, the score ranges from 0 (normal) to 3 (most severe). The total score is the sum of all subscores.
Measured: Up to 156 weeks
To evaluate efficacy by change in Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) score over time.
The QMG score is a 13-item scale conducted by a qualified assessor to evaluate disease severity in patients with MG. The total score ranges from a minimum of 0 (no myasthenic findings) to 39 (maximum myasthenic deficits).
Measured: Up to 156 weeks
To evaluate efficacy by change in Myasthenia Gravis Composite (MGC) score over time.
The MGC scale is a physician-reported instrument for the assessment of MG patients' symptoms and impairments. It includes 10 domains, and the total score ranges from 0 (normal) to 50 (most severe).
Measured: Up to 156 weeks

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing CABA-201 in people with Generalized Myasthenia Gravis (gMG), run by Cabaletta Bio at 17 sites in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 17 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this combined phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Cabaletta Bio (267 759 3100 ext. 4444, clinicaltrials@cabalettabio.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
To evaluate incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) (time frame: Up to 28 days after CABA-201 infusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Oct 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
