GPC3-CAR-T Cells for Immunotherapy of Cancer With GPC3 Expression

Is NCT03198546 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (Jun 2026). This Phase 1 trial studies GPC3 and/or TGFβ targeting CAR-T cells for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Phase 1RecruitingSecond Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical UniversityNCT03198546Data as of Jun 2026Location: China

Treatment: GPC3 and/or TGFβ targeting CAR-T cellsThe third/fourth generation of CAR-T cells that target GPC3 (GPC3-CART cell) and/or soluble TGFβ (GPC3/TGFβ-CART )have been constructed and their anti-HCC function has been verified by multiple in vitro and in vivo studies. Clinical studies will be performed to test the anti-cancer function by the GPC3/TGFβ-CAR-T cells in human HCC patients with GPC3 expression. In this phase I study, the safety, tolerance, and preliminary efficacy of the GPC3/TGFβ-CAR-T cell immunotherapy on human will firstly be tested.
