Summary

The goal of this Phase I clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of autologous CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy in adults with refractory systemic lupus erythematosus who have demonstrated inadequate response to standard-of-care immunosuppressive treatments.

The primary questions this study aims to address are:

What is the incidence, nature, and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events following CD19 CAR-T cell infusion? Is administration of CD19 CAR-T cell therapy feasible and tolerable in patients with refractory systemic lupus erythematosus? This study is conducted as a single-arm trial without a comparison group.

Participants will:

Undergo leukapheresis for collection of autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells Receive a protocol-defined lymphodepleting chemotherapy regimen prior to CAR-T cell infusion Receive a single intravenous infusion of approximately 1.0 × 10⁶ CD19 CAR-T cells per kilogram of body weight Undergo scheduled clinical evaluations, laboratory testing, and longitudinal follow-up to assess safety, tolerability, and clinical parameters

Conditions

  • Refractory Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Autologous CD19-Targeted CAR-T Cells

Autologous chimeric antigen receptor T cells targeting CD19, manufactured from participants' peripheral blood T cells collected by leukapheresis. Cells are genetically modified ex vivo to express a CD19-specific CAR, expanded, and administered as a single intravenous infusion following protocol-defined lymphodepleting chemotherapy. Participants undergo post-infusion monitoring for safety and immunological effects according to the study protocol.
