Overview

This is a multicenter, open-label, non-randomized, single-arm clinical trial. Patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma accompanied by extramedullary infiltration will receive BCMA - GPRC5D CAR-T cell therapy.

The primary objective is to prospectively evaluate the safety of dual-targeting BCMA and GPRC5D CAR - T cell therapy for extramedullary infiltration in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. The primary endpoints are to assess the type and incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) within one month after the reinfusion of BCMA-GPRC5D CAR-T cells in patients, as well as the incidence and severity of adverse events within one month after the reinfusion. It is expected that no more than 18 participants will be recruited.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Voluntarily participate in the trial and have good compliance.
2. Aged between 18 and 75 years old, regardless of gender.
3. Diagnosed with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma according to the criteria of the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG)2, and have measurable extramedullary lesions due to multiple myeloma.
4. Positive for BCMA and GPRC5D in flow cytometry of bone marrow or cerebrospinal fluid tumor cells or immunohistochemistry of tumor tissue.
5. Organ functions: ① Cardiac function: Left ventricular ejection fraction \> 50% (by echocardiogram) in the past 2 weeks. ② Liver function: Alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase \< 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN). ③ Renal function: Creatinine clearance rate ≥ 40 mL/min (by Cockcroft and Gault formula). ④ Coagulation function: PT and APPT \< 1.5 times the ULN. ⑤ Arterial oxygen saturation (SpO₂) \> 95%. ⑥ Pulmonary function: FEV₁% predicted value ≥ 50%.
6. Female patients of childbearing age must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening and before receiving cyclophosphamide and fludarabine or melphalan treatment; male patients should be willing to use effective contraceptive methods for 1 year after receiving the study treatment.
7. ECOG score ≤ 2.
8. Expected survival time \> 3 months.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Pregnant or lactating women.
2. Active infections that have not been effectively controlled.
3. Active autoimmune diseases that have not been effectively controlled.
4. Adverse reactions caused by previous treatments have not recovered to CTCAE grade ≤ 1.
5. For allogeneic transplant patients, active graft - versus - host disease (GVHD) that has not been effectively controlled.
6. Presence of any of the following: HBV - DNA copy number above the lower limit of detection; positive hepatitis C antibody (HCV - Ab) with HCV - RNA copy number above the lower limit of measurability; positive anti - Treponema pallidum antibody (TP - Ab); positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody test.
7. Allergic or intolerant to fludarabine or cyclophosphamide.
8. Suffering from known symptomatic non - plasma cell infiltrative central nervous system diseases.
9. Uncontrollable cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases within 6 months, such as: a. New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV congestive heart failure. b. Myocardial infarction occurred or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was received ≤ 6 months before enrollment. c. Clinically significant ventricular arrhythmia or a history of unexplained syncope (excluding cases caused by vasovagal or dehydration). d. A history of severe non - ischemic cardiomyopathy.
10. A history of other untreated malignancies within the past 5 years or having other untreated malignancies concurrently.
11. The investigator assesses that the subject cannot or is unwilling to comply with the requirements of the study protocol.
12. Previous use of a CAR - T vector with the same structure.
