Interventions
- EB-DT-NK-UC101 — BIOLOGICALAllogeneic cord-blood-derived dual-target Nectin-4/HER2 CAR-NK cells with inducible caspase-9 safety switch.
- Cyclophosphamide — DRUGLymphodepleting chemotherapy given before the first CAR-NK infusion.
- Fludarabine — DRUGLymphodepleting chemotherapy given before the first CAR-NK infusion
Study Details
This hypothetical first-in-human study is designed to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of an allogeneic dual-target Nectin-4/HER2 CAR-NK cell product in adults with relapsed/refractory locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma. Based on public urothelial-cancer evidence, Nectin-4 was selected as the lead antigen because it has the strongest disease-specific clinical validation; HER2/ERBB2 was chosen as the secondary co-target to broaden tumor coverage and reduce antigen-escape risk. EpCAM is not selected as a therapeutic co-target in this example because of broader normal epithelial expression and weaker tumor specificity in urothelial carcinoma.

Arms
- Experimental: Dose EscalationParticipants receive lymphodepletion with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine followed by EB-DT-NK-UC101 IV infusions on Day 1 and Day 8 of a 21-day cycle. Planned dose levels: 1 × 10\^7, 3 × 10\^7, and 1 × 10\^8 CAR-NK cells/kg
- Experimental: Dose ExpansionParticipants receive the RP2D identified in Arm A using the same lymphodepletion backbone and infusion schedule. Expansion enriches for Nectin-4-positive disease and captures HER2 co-expression prospectively.
Primary Outcome Measure
Incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) [ Time Frame: 28 Days ]
