Descartes-08 mRNA CAR-T Cell Therapy in Generalized Myasthenia Gravis (AURORA) – Active and Recruiting

ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT06799247 Study Details | Investigating an mRNA CAR T-cell Therapy, Known as Descartes-08, as a Potential Approach to Treat Myasthenia Gravis | ClinicalTrials.gov

Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Descartes-08 in adults living with generalized myasthenia gravis.

Experimental: Descartes-08, mRNA CAR T cell therapy

In Part 1, eligible participants will undergo leukapheresis, a procedure used to collect T-cells (a type of white blood cell) to manufacture the individualized study drug, Descartes-08. Participants will then be randomized to receive either Descartes-08 or placebo infusions once a week for 6 weeks.

No chemotherapy is required prior to receiving Descartes-08 and all infusions will be administered in an outpatient setting.

In Part 2, participants may receive Descartes-08 infusions open-label and/or continue with monthly check-ups.

Participants must be at least 18 years of age and have been diagnosed with generalized myasthenia gravis, with a positive serologic test for anti-AChR antibodies

Total enrollment: 100 participants
