What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This phase 1 trial is testing an experimental therapy called SYS6020 for people with refractory generalized myasthenia gravis, a chronic autoimmune condition that causes severe muscle weakness. SYS6020 uses a patient's own immune cells, engineered to target BCMA, a protein involved in producing the antibodies that drive the disease. The study aims to see if this treatment is safe and tolerable, and whether it can improve symptoms, with participants receiving multiple infusions and being followed for up to five years.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
SYS6020 injection, a personalized CAR-T cell therapy targeting BCMA
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a new treatment option for people with refractory myasthenia gravis who have not responded to standard therapies.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase trial with a small number of participants, so safety and effectiveness are not yet established. CAR-T therapies can cause serious side effects, and the treatment may not work for everyone.

Inclusion Criteria: * 1\) The ages ≥18 and ≤ 70 years old; * 2\) Diagnosed as generalized myasthenia gravis (GMG), the clinical classification of MGFA II-IVa; * 3\) Diagnosed as refractory myasthenia gravis (refractory MG) ; * 4\) QMG score \>11 in the screening period and before apheresis; * 5\) Positive acetylcholine receptor antibody (AChR-Ab) and/or muscle-specific receptor tyrosine kinase (MuSK) antibody in the screening period; * 6\) The daily dose of concomitant glucocorticoid therapy must not exceed 20mg prednisone or equivalent within 7 days prior to apheresis; * 7\) Participants have a thorough understanding of this clinical trial and voluntarily sign a written informed consent form. Exclusion Criteria: * 1\) Have been known to have allergic reactions, hypersensitivity, intolerance or contraindications to SYS6020(including its active ingredient and excipient dextran 40) or the drugs potentially used in the study, or who have had a previous history of severe allergic reactions; * 2\) Participants with major chronic diseases that are not well-controlled and considered to increase the participant's risk potentially by the investigator; * 3\) Participants with other autoimmune diseases that require systemic treatment. Participants with stable autoimmune thyroid diseases who have a normal thyroid function and are at a stable therapeutic dose are allowed to be enrolled. * 4\) Participants with a severe recurrent infection during the screening period, or any active infection that the investigator considers may affect the patient's participation; * 5)Participants with a history of positive HIV; participants with positive HBsAg; participants with positive HBcAb and with HBV-DNA above the measurable limit;(Note: participants with positive HBV-DNA or HCV-RNA results within 6 months prior to ICF are excluded); * 6\) Participants with a history of malignant tumors within the past 5 years or with current active malignant tumors. (Participants with successfully treated localized tumors, as well as participants with WHO histological type A, AB, B1 or B2thymoma, with no evidence of recurrence or metastasis for at least 1 year after complete resection assessed by the investigator , are allowed to be enrolled;) * 7\) Any serious respiratory system disease. * 8\) Participants with a history of serious cardiovascular disease, such as severe cardiac rhythm or conduction abnormalities. * 9\) Abnormal laboratory findings with clinical significance, including ALT, AST\>3\*ULN; Scr\>1.5\*ULN; INR\>1.5\*ULN, and so on. . * 10\) Individuals with potential disease conditions (including laboratory abnormalities) which are considered of clinical significance by the investigator; individuals with alcohol dependence or drug abuse . * 11\) Individuals with a current psychotic disorder that interferes with adherence. * 12\) Participants with a history of primary immunodeficiency disease, organ or hematopoietic stem cell/bone marrow transplantations before screening; or those planning to undergo a transplantation during the trial; * 13\) Participants with a history of ≥ Grade 2 (CTCAE 5.0 standard) bleeding within 30 days before screening, or those requiring long-term continuous treatments with anticoagulant drugs. * 14\) Participants who have received any CAR-T therapy or gene therapy before. * 15\) Participants who have received intravenous injection of human immunoglobulin (IVIG) or plasmapheresis (PE), plasma separation, or hemodialysis within 1 month before apheresis. * 16\) Participants who have used calcineurin inhibitors, or cyclophosphamide or neonatal Fc receptor antagonists within 3 weeks before apheresis.
