Comments

Immunotherapy trial in Australia, specific for metastatic colorectal cancer, with adoptive cell therapy, subtype CAR T cell therapy (Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T Cell Therapy.

CNA3103: Leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 5 [LGR5]-targeted, autologous Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) -T Cells.
Patients undergo leukapheresis (collection of T cells) and lymphodepletion (chemotherapy), up to 40 days prior to CNA3103 intravenous dosing.
Trial similar to several ongoing at the National Institutes of Health in U.S.
Measurable disease required, prior therapies with Folfox and Folfiri required.
Patients who received third line of treatment (Stivarga, Lonsurf) are NOT allowed. Patients with BRAF mutated cancer are excluded.
First patient has received dose in December 2023.
