Conditions

Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Brief summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of anti-GPC3 scFv-41BB-CD3ζ-tEGFR chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T (CAR-T) cells in treating patients with GPC3-positive advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Detailed description

Primary Objectives: 1. To evaluate the safety of intravenous administration of the anti-GPC3 CAR-T cells in patients with HCC or lung squamous cell carcinoma 2. To access the safety of anti-GPC3 CAR-T cells in HCC patients through catheter injection Secondary Objectives: 1. To evaluate the efficacy of anti-GPC3 CAR-T cells in patients with advanced HCC or lung squamous cell carcinoma 2. To monitor the serum cytokine and expression level of tumor markers such as AFP, CEA and GPC3 3. To assess the persistence in peripheral blood and intratumoral infiltration of anti-GPC3 CAR-T cells

Interventions

BIOLOGICALRetroviral vector-transduced autologous T cells to express anti-GPC3 CARs

transcatheter arterial chemoembolization + CAR-T infusion

DRUGFludarabine

Fludarabine will be administered at dose of 25mg/m2/d

DRUGCyclophosphamide

Cyclophosphamide will be administered at dose of 40mg/kg for 1 day and then fludarabine will be given for the next 5 days and then the T cells will be administered
