Dual-Target CSPG4/GD2 CAR-NK Cells for Advanced Melanoma
About this study
This is a first-in-human, open-label, multicenter phase 1/2 study evaluating the safety, feasibility, recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and preliminary antitumor activity of allogeneic dual-target CSPG4/GD2 CAR-NK cells (EBDTKN-401) after lymphodepleting chemotherapy in adults with unresectable or metastatic cutaneous melanoma or metastatic uveal melanoma whose disease has progressed after standard therapy

- Tested
- EB-DTKN-401 allogeneic dual-target CSPG4/GD2 CAR-NK cells, Fludarabine, Cyclophosphamide

Inclusion 15
- Minimum age: 18 years
- Maximum age: 75 years
- Study condition: Unresectable Melanoma, Metastatic Cutaneous Melanoma, Metastatic Uveal Melanoma
- Age 18-75 years at consent.
- Histologically confirmed unresectable/metastatic cutaneous melanoma or metastatic uveal melanoma.
- Disease progression after standard therapy, intolerance to standard therapy, or no remaining standard option expected to provide meaningful benefit.
- For cutaneous melanoma: prior anti-PD-1/L1 (with or without antiCTLA-4) unless contraindicated; if BRAF V600-mutant, prior BRAF/MEK inhibitor therapy or documented unsuitability.
- For uveal melanoma: prior tebentafusp if HLA-A\*02:01-positive and eligible, or documented unsuitability/unavailability plus at least one prior systemic therapy.
- Tumor demonstrates CSPG4 and/or GD2 expression in archival or fresh tissue by central testing (suggested positivity threshold: at least 25% viable tumor cells by IHC or equivalent validated assay).
- At least 1 measurable lesion by RECIST v1.1.
- ECOG performance status 0-1.
- Adequate bone marrow, renal, hepatic, cardiac, and pulmonary function per protocol.
- Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.
- Treated, stable brain metastases are allowed if neurologically stable for at least 4 weeks and not requiring escalating corticosteroids.
- Willingness to use effective contraception and comply with protocol-required visits, blood sampling, and requested biopsies.
Exclusion 8
- Active symptomatic CNS metastases, leptomeningeal disease, or uncontrolled seizure disorder.
- Prior allogeneic stem cell transplant or solid organ transplant; prior gene-modified cellular therapy within 12 weeks; or anti-cancer therapy too close to lymphodepletion per protocol washout rules.
- Requirement for systemic immunosuppression greater than 10 mg prednisone equivalent/day or uncontrolled autoimmune/inflammatory disease requiring systemic treatment.
- Active uncontrolled infection, including uncontrolled HIV, HBV, or HCV, or fever/sepsis at the time lymphodepletion would begin.
- Clinically significant cardiovascular disease, uncontrolled arrhythmia, recent myocardial infarction, or uncontrolled thromboembolic disease.
- Grade 2 or higher unresolved toxicities from prior therapy, except stable endocrinopathy, alopecia, or vitiligo.
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- Any condition that, in the investigator's judgment, would make lymphodepletion or CAR-NK infusion unsafe.
