About this study
Official title: Exploratory Study to Evaluate the Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of Anti-HER2 CAR-T Cell Injection in Patients With HER2-positive Advanced Malignant Solid Tumors
This is a single-arm, open-label, exploratory clinical study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of Anti-HER2 CAR-T cell injection in patients with HER2-positive advanced malignant solid tumors.
Read the detailed description
All eligible participants will receive a conditioning chemotherapy regimen of fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and ABRAXANE followed by Anti-HER2 CAR-T cell injection.The dose escalation phase will determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Anti-HER2 CAR-T cell injection. Additional patients will be enrolled in the dose expansion phase to further characterize the safety profile and evaluate the efficacy of Anti-HER2 CAR-T cell injection, and establish recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Anti-HER2 CAR-T cells in people with HER2-positive Advanced Malignant Solid Tumors, run by UTC Therapeutics Inc. at 1 site in China.
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 9 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in China. 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.
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 Yi Zhang (15138928971, yizhang001@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?

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 Mar 2026.
