• CDH17 CAR-T treatment arm · EXPERIMENTAL · In this study, patients with advanced malignant solid tumors with positive CDH17 expression will be enrolled in a traditional "3+3 design" dose climb test. The initial dose of cell therapy in this clinical study was set at 1.0×10\^6/Kg and the maximum dose was set at 6.0×10\^6/Kg.
• FAST LACO-Stim CDH17 CAR-T treatment arm · EXPERIMENTAL · Intravenous infusion of FAST LACO-Stim CDH17 CAR-T cells by 2 dose levels.In this study, patients with advanced malignant solid tumors with positive CDH17 expression will be enrolled to receive the upgraded FAST LACO-Stim CDH17 CAR-T cells. The dose escalation will follow a modified "3+3 design". The initial dose of cell therapy was set at 3.0×10\^4/kg, and the maximum dose was set at 1.0×10\^5/kg. During dose escalation, the investigator may adjust the dose level as appropriate based on the accumulated human safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic data.

The investigational product used in this study, UCLH801 cells, is a CAR-T cell therapy specifically targeting CDH17. The proposed indication includes CDH17-positive advanced solid tumors, such as but not limited to colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, biliary tract tumors, neuroendocrine tumors, ovarian cancer, and lung cancer. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of UCLH801 cells in patients with CDH17-positive advanced malignant solid tumors. The secondary objectives include assessing the preliminary efficacy of UCLH801 cells, their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in the body, and their immunogenicity. This study aims to observe how the infusion of UCLH801 cells affects patients 's body, including any discomfort or changes in laboratory test results. Additionally, it will evaluate whether UCLH801 cells have any effect on tumor. Furthermore, the study will investigate how UCLH801 cells are metabolized; the mechanisms through which they exert their effects, and how to develops any immune response or rejection against UCLH801 cells.
