About this study

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Is CBG131 safe, and what medical problems do participants have when receiving it? Does CBG131 shrink tumors in participants with CLDN18.2-positive cancers? How long do the CAR-T cells stay and work in the body? Researchers will test different doses of CBG131 to see which dose is safest and most effective. This is an early-stage trial, so there is no placebo group-everyone who joins will receive the actual treatment.

Participants will:

Have their blood cells collected through a procedure called leukapheresis (so the CAR-T cells can be made).

Receive chemotherapy for 3 days to prepare their body for the CAR-T cells Get a single infusion of CBG131 CAR-T cells through an IV. Visit the clinic frequently for the first month, then regularly for 2 years for checkups, blood tests, and tumor assessments.

Keep track of their symptoms and any side effects they experience.

Conditions: Advanced Gastric and Pancreatic Cancer
Being tested: CBG131 CAR-T Cell Infusion
Medical subject headings: Pancreatic Neoplasms

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

CBG131 CAR-T Cell InfusionDrug
This Phase I trial follows a conventional 3 + 3 dose-escalation schema. Cohorts: (1) DL1 (de-escalation cohort): 0.5×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells; (2) DL1 (starting dose cohort): 1×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells; (3) DL2: 2×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells. Three subjects are enrolled in each cohort. Absence of Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) permits dose escalation; one DLT triggers expansion of the cohort by three additional subjects at the same dose. If, during expansion, one or more additional DLTs occur: (1) in the DL1 (starting dose cohort), dose escalation is suspended and de-escalation is considered; (2) in DL2 or higher cohorts, dose escalation stops and the preceding dose is declared the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD). If no further DLTs appear, dose escalation proceeds.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

Incidence and Grading of Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)（Including CRS and ICANS）
This outcome measure assesses the incidence and severity grading of all Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) in subjects. Specifically: a) Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) and Immune Effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS) are graded according to the ASTCT (American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy) consensus criteria; b) All other AEs are graded according to the NCI-CTCAE (National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) Version 5.0. Data are collected from leukapheresis enrollment to the end of the follow-up period.
Measured: From leukapheresis enrollment up to 15 years post-CBG131 infusion, or until study withdrawal, loss to follow-up, or death of the subject, whichever comes first.
Incidence and Determination of Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) Related to CBG131
Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) refers to CBG131-related toxicities (excluding infections and malignancies) occurring within 28 days after CAR-T cell infusion. DLT is determined based on the following criteria: 1) Grade 5 AE; 2) Grade 4 CRS; 3) Grade 4 neurotoxicity; 4) Grade 3 CRS or neurotoxicity that persists for more than 72 hours and fails to improve to ≤Grade 2; 5) Other Grade 4 non-hematologic toxicity that persists for more than 72 hours and fails to improve to ≤Grade 3; 6) Other Grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity that persists for ≥2 weeks; 7) Grade 4 hematologic toxicity that persists for more than 72 hours and fails to improve to ≤Grade 3; 8) Hematologic toxicity of Grade >3 that persists for more than 2 weeks and fails to improve to ≤Grade 2.
Measured: Within 28 days after CAR-T cell infusion.
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Optimal Dosage of CBG131（Determined by 3+3 Dose-Escalation Schema）
This Phase I trial adopts a conventional 3 + 3 dose-escalation schema to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of CBG131 and further confirm its optimal dosage. The dose cohorts are designed as follows: (1) DL1 (de-escalation cohort): 0.5×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells; (2) DL1 (starting dose cohort): 1×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells; (3) DL2: 2×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells. Three subjects are enrolled in each cohort. If no DLT occurs in a cohort, dose escalation proceeds to the next higher cohort; if one DLT occurs, the cohort is expanded by an additional three subjects at the same dose. During the expansion phase: (1) If one or more additional DLTs occur in the DL1 (starting dose cohort), dose escalation is suspended and de-escalation is considered; (2) If one or more additional DLTs occur in DL2 or higher cohorts, dose escalation stops, and the previous dose is declared as the MTD. If no additional DLTs occur during expansion, dose escalation continues.
Measured: Within 28 days after CAR-T cell infusion (DLT assessment period); the MTD is determined after completion of dose escalation for all cohorts.

Clinical summary

The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Participants will:

Have their blood cells collected through a procedure called leukapheresis (so the CAR-T cells can be made).

Keep track of their symptoms and any side effects they experience.

Study design

Primary purpose: Treatment
Allocation: Not applicable
Intervention model: Single group
Masking: None (open label)
Number of arms: 1

Arm	Type	Receives
CBG131 CAR-T Cell Injection	Experimental	Drug: CBG131 CAR-T Cell InfusionThis Phase I trial follows a conventional 3 + 3 dose-escalation schema. The dose cohorts are designed as follows: (1) DL1 (de-escalation cohort): 0.5×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells; (2) DL1 (starting dose cohort): 1×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells; (3) DL2: 2×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells. Three subjects are enrolled in each cohort.The dose escalation rule is as follows: Absence of Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) permits escalation to the next higher cohort; one DLT triggers expansion of the current cohort by three additional subjects at the same dose. If one or more additional DLTs occur during the expansion phase: (1) For the DL1 (starting dose cohort), dose escalation is suspended and de-escalation is considered; (2) For DL2 or higher cohorts, dose escalation stops, and the preceding dose is declared as the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD). If no further DLTs occur during expansion, dose escalation proceeds.

Primary outcome

Incidence and Grading of Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)（Including CRS and ICANS）
Time frame: From leukapheresis enrollment up to 15 years post-CBG131 infusion, or until study withdrawal, loss to follow-up, or death of the subject, whichever comes first.
This outcome measure assesses the incidence and severity grading of all Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) in subjects. Specifically: a) Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) and Immune Effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS) are graded according to the ASTCT (American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy) consensus criteria; b) All other AEs are graded according to the NCI-CTCAE (National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) Version 5.0. Data are collected from leukapheresis enrollment to the end of the follow-up period.
Incidence and Determination of Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) Related to CBG131
Time frame: Within 28 days after CAR-T cell infusion.
Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) refers to CBG131-related toxicities (excluding infections and malignancies) occurring within 28 days after CAR-T cell infusion. DLT is determined based on the following criteria: 1) Grade 5 AE; 2) Grade 4 CRS; 3) Grade 4 neurotoxicity; 4) Grade 3 CRS or neurotoxicity that persists for more than 72 hours and fails to improve to ≤Grade 2; 5) Other Grade 4 non-hematologic toxicity that persists for more than 72 hours and fails to improve to ≤Grade 3; 6) Other Grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity that persists for ≥2 weeks; 7) Grade 4 hematologic toxicity that persists for more than 72 hours and fails to improve to ≤Grade 3; 8) Hematologic toxicity of Grade >3 that persists for more than 2 weeks and fails to improve to ≤Grade 2.
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Optimal Dosage of CBG131（Determined by 3+3 Dose-Escalation Schema）
Time frame: Within 28 days after CAR-T cell infusion (DLT assessment period); the MTD is determined after completion of dose escalation for all cohorts.
This Phase I trial adopts a conventional 3 + 3 dose-escalation schema to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of CBG131 and further confirm its optimal dosage. The dose cohorts are designed as follows: (1) DL1 (de-escalation cohort): 0.5×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells; (2) DL1 (starting dose cohort): 1×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells; (3) DL2: 2×10⁸ CAR⁺ T cells. Three subjects are enrolled in each cohort. If no DLT occurs in a cohort, dose escalation proceeds to the next higher cohort; if one DLT occurs, the cohort is expanded by an additional three subjects at the same dose. During the expansion phase: (1) If one or more additional DLTs occur in the DL1 (starting dose cohort), dose escalation is suspended and de-escalation is considered; (2) If one or more additional DLTs occur in DL2 or higher cohorts, dose escalation stops, and the previous dose is declared as the MTD. If no additional DLTs occur during expansion, dose escalation continues.
