Summary: This is a single-center, open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of bispecific BCMA-GPRC5D Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who received three or more lines of therapy.

Detailed description: B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-targeted Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has yielded satisfactory clinical outcomes in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM). However, BCMA-targeted CAR-T cells cannot achieve a favorable response in patients with dim or negative BCMA expression on the tumor surface at baseline or relapse. G protein-coupled receptor, class C, group 5, member D (GPRC5D) is highly distributed on MM cells and proves to be a promising target for MM. In normal tissues, it is restrictedly expressed in hair follicle, rendering it a safe target for CAR-T cell therapy as well. To construct a bispecific BCMA-GPRC5D CAR structure would help mitigate the antigen escape and elevates the clinical efficacy. This is an investigational study. The objectives are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BCMA-GPRC5D CAR-T cells in adult patients with relapsed or refractory MM disease.
