IM19 CAR-T Cell Therapy in Refractory Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)

The study is a single-arm, open-label clinical trial intended to recruit 6 refractory SLE subjects who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The subjects will receive IM19 CAR-T cell infusion therapy at a dose of 1×10\^6/kg or 1×10\^8 CAR-T cells . The primary endpoint is to evaluate the improvement in SLE disease activity (SLEDAI-2K) at 90 days and the occurrence of adverse events related to IM19 CAR-T cell infusion within 28 days post-infusion. Additionally, the long-term efficacy was evaluated, including the improvement of SLEDAI-2K score and achieving lupus low disease activity (LLDAS) at day 180 and day 360, and renal response at day 180 and day 360. The persistence and duration of IM19 CAR-T cells in the peripheral blood of subjects will also be evaluated. The study plan includes five phases: screening phase, cell collection phase, lymphodepletion pretreatment phase, cell infusion phase, and follow-up phase.
