Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (a type of primary liver cancers) are enrolls in this study. The cancer has progressed after standard treatment, or the patient cannot receive regular treatment.

Investigator made a gene called chimeric antigen receptor derived from an antibody that recognizes Glypican 3, a protein detected in in a large proportion of hepatocellular carcinoma. The gene will introduce into T cell from patient's blood to make them recognize and kill cancer cells.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, tolerance and safety of chimeric antigen receptor-modified T (CAR-T) cell targeting Glypican 3 for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

CAR-T cells

CAR-T cells targeting GPC3 will be administered to enrolled patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

CAR-T cell immunotherapy

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Patients enrolled will recieve three different doses of the CAR-T cell every two weeks as follows:

Dose 1: 1x10\^7/m2

Dose 2: 3x10\^7/m2

Dose 3: 1x10\^8/m2

The cell numbers are calculated according to CAR-positive T cells.

CAR-T cell immunotherapy

Patients enrolled will recieve three different doses of the CAR-T cell every two weeks as follows:

Dose 1: 1x10\^7/m2

Dose 2: 3x10\^7/m2

Dose 3: 1x10\^8/m2

The cell numbers are calculated according to CAR-positive T cells.
