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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 early-stage trial is testing an experimental therapy that uses circular RNA to create CAR T cells directly inside the body, potentially eliminating the need to extract and modify cells in a lab. It is designed for adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell cancers, such as certain lymphomas and leukemias, who have not responded to standard treatments. The study will evaluate the therapy's safety, tolerability, and preliminary effectiveness, with a focus on finding the right dose and observing how the body responds.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
In vivo circular RNA chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could offer a one-time treatment that reprograms a patient's own immune cells to attack and potentially eliminate B-cell cancers, without the need for complex lab processing.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase, dose-escalation trial with a small number of participants, so safety and effectiveness are not yet established. There are risks of severe side effects, and the therapy may not work for all types of B-cell malignancies.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age ≥ 18 years, any gender. 2. Able to provide written informed consent. 3. Confirmed diagnosis of relapsed/refractory (R/R) CD19-positive B-cell malignancy, including: * Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) * Follicular lymphoma (FL) * Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) * Small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL)/chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) * Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) * Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) 4. ECOG performance status 0 or 1.and have archival tumor biopsy tissue and pathology report from the most recent relapse, or at least one palpable superficial tumor lesion at screening, and agree to biopsy/resection before the first dose of IP for disease confirmation. 5. Disease refractory to or relapsed after ≥ 2 prior lines of standard therapy, including required agents per disease subtype (e.g., anti-CD20, BTK inhibitors, chemotherapy, or ASCT if applicable). 6. Measurable disease per Lugano 2014 or iwCLL 2018 criteria. 7. LVEF ≥ 40% by echocardiogram. 8. For patients with prior CD19-targeted therapy, confirmed CD19 positivity at screening. 9. Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum pregnancy test and agree to use effective contraception during the study and for 6 months after last treatment. 10. Male patients with female partners must agree to use condoms, and partners must use effective contraception, during the study and for 6 months after last treatment. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Prior anticancer therapy-related toxicities unresolved to baseline or ≤ Grade 1 (alopecia and peripheral neuropathy excepted). 2. Central nervous system (CNS) involvement by lymphoma. 3. Need for urgent treatment due to tumor mass effect or spinal cord compression. 4. Known hypersensitivity to any component of IP, including mRNA/LNP-based products. 5. History of another primary malignancy within the past 3 years, except adequately treated basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, or cervical carcinoma in situ. 6. Active hepatitis B (HBsAg-positive with detectable HBV DNA) or hepatitis C (HCV RNA-positive) infection. 7. Active or prior HIV infection. 8. Uncontrolled active systemic infection requiring IV therapy within 1 week before dosing. 9. Active or history of acute/chronic GVHD. 10. Inadequate hematologic function (ANC \<1.0×10⁹/L, Hb \<70 g/L, PLT \<50×10⁹/L, lymphocytes ≤0.5×10⁹/L) or coagulation abnormalities (INR/APTT ≥1.5×ULN). 11. Hepatic impairment (ALT/AST \>2×ULN, or \>3×ULN with hepatic involvement; bilirubin \>2×ULN, unless Gilbert syndrome). 12. Renal impairment (CrCl \<50 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault). 13. Uncontrolled ischemic heart disease, NYHA Class III-IV heart failure, or baseline QTcF ≥450 ms (male) / ≥470 ms (female). 14. Severe psychiatric disorder history. 15. Pregnancy or breastfeeding. 16. Received prohibited treatments within 4 weeks before dosing, including high-dose corticosteroids (\>20 mg prednisone equivalent daily), chemotherapy, immunosuppressive therapy, prior CAR-T or other gene/cell therapy, or T-cell engagers. 17. Participation in another clinical study with investigational therapy within 3 months before dosing, or prior participation in cell/gene therapy trials. 18. Planned radiotherapy within 6 weeks after screening (unless only non-irradiated PET-positive lesions remain eligible). 19. Planned allogeneic HSCT within 90 days after screening. 20. Significant comorbidities or unstable medical conditions deemed by the investigator to compromise safety or study compliance.
