Summary

This is a draft, ClinicalTrials.gov-style example record for a first-in-human Phase 1 study evaluating locoregional administration of dual-targeting chimeric antigen receptor natural killer (CAR-NK) cells in adults with recurrent or progressive glioblastoma (GBM) or other high-grade glioma (HGG). Participants will undergo tumor antigen profiling for IL13Rα2, EGFR/EGFRvIII, and B7-H3 (CD276). Based on this assessment, each participant will receive the most suitable dual-target CAR construct to reduce antigen-escape risk.

Conditions

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Dual-target CAR-NK cells

Dual-target CAR-NK cells (IL13Rα2/EGFR/EGFRvIII construct): Allogeneic natural killer (NK) cells genetically engineered to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) designed to recognize tumor-associated antigens including IL13Rα2, EGFR, and EGFRvIII. This multi-targeting strategy aims to enhance tumor recognition, reduce antigen escape, and improve cytotoxic activity against heterogeneous tumor cell populations. The engineered CAR-NK cells are administered via locoregional delivery (e.g., intracavitary or through an Ommaya reservoir) to achieve targeted anti-tumor effects while minimizing systemic toxicity.

DRUG

Cyclophosphamide

An alkylating chemotherapy agent used as part of lymphodepleting conditioning prior to CAR-NK cell infusion to enhance cell expansion, persistence, and anti-tumor activity.

DEVICE

Intracranial catheter/reservoir for locoregional delivery

A device (e.g., Ommaya reservoir) implanted in the brain to enable direct, repeated administration of CAR-NK cells or other therapies into the tumor site or cerebrospinal fluid, improving local drug delivery and reducing systemic exposure.

DRUG

Fludarabine

A purine analog chemotherapy used in lymphodepletion prior to CAR-NK cell therapy to enhance the expansion, persistence, and anti-tumor activity of the infused cells.
