A Phase 1/2 Feasibility, Safety, and Activity Study of PSCA-Specific Chimeric Antigen Receptor Engineered T Cells (BPX-601) in Subjects With Previously Treated Advanced Solid Tumors
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and activity of BPX-601 in participants
with previously treated advanced solid tumors (pancreatic, stomach, or prostate) expressing
high levels of prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA). Participants' T cells are modified to
recognize and target the PSCA tumor marker on cancer cells.
with previously treated advanced solid tumors (pancreatic, stomach, or prostate) expressing
high levels of prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA). Participants' T cells are modified to
recognize and target the PSCA tumor marker on cancer cells.
The goal of this study is to characterize the feasibility, safety, and clinical activity of
PSCA-specific CAR-T cells, BPX-601, administered with rimiducid to subjects with previously
treated, PSCA-positive advanced solid tumors (pancreatic, stomach, or prostate). BPX-601
CAR-T cells are genetically engineered to express a rimiducid-inducible signaling domain
which functions as a molecular switch to enhance activation and proliferation.
Part 1 (Phase 1): Cell dose escalation to identify the maximum dose of BPX-601 T cells
(escalating doses from 1.25 x 10E6 cells/kg up to 5.0 x 10E6 cells/kg to be explored)
administered with rimiducid (fixed single-dose at 0.4 mg/kg).

3. Prostate cancer with unstable bone lesions or symptomatic coagulopathy.
4. Participant has a history of major surgery or treatment with other cancer therapy
within 2-4 weeks before study treatment.
5. Participant has an untreated brain tumor.
6. Current severe, uncontrolled systemic disease including an ongoing, active infection
requiring treatment with antibiotics within 2 weeks before study treatment.
7. History of clinically significant heart problems.

9. Participant requires chronic, systemic steroid therapy.
10. Participant has an active, autoimmune disease that requires immunosuppressive therapy.
Exceptions are vitiligo, type I diabetes, certain cases of hypothyroidism and
psoriasis, or Hashimoto's thyroiditis on a stable dose of thyroid replacement therapy
11. Participant is positive for Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, HIV, syphilis, West Nile virus,
or Chagas disease.
