Brief Summary

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

The goal of this clinical trial is to test ATHENA CAR-T injection in adults with moderate to severe Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. The main question it aims to answer is:

• To evaluate the safety and tolerability of ATHENA CAR-T.

After screening, participants will be subjected to lymphodepletion regimen. After recovery, participants will be injected with ATHENA CAR-T injection and followed up to 24 months.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is a single center, one-arm, open label, phase I study aimed at evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ATHENA CAR-T treating moderate to severe SLE patients.

A traditional "3+3" design is used with two doses. DLT is monitored. Safety and effectiveness are followed up until 24 months post infusion of ATHENA CAR-T. Besides safety monitoring, efficacy is evaluated via SLEDAI-2000, BILAG-2004, PGA.
