MT2024-07:A Phase 1/2, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Autologous CD19-specific Chimeric Antigen Receptor T cells (CABA-201) in Subjects with Active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (RESET-SLE)
The purpose of this study is to find out what dose of CABA-201 can be safely administered to patients with SLE, including those with lupus nephritis (LN). SLE is thought to involve B cells that cause the body to attack different tissues in the body including your skin, joints, kidneys, heart, lungs, brain, and blood cells. LN is a type of kidney disease caused by SLE. CABA-201 is a chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR T) therapy. In this study, we will take some of your T cells, a type of white blood cell, and genetically modify them (put in a “code”) so that they may find and remove the B cells in your body, including the B cells that are involved in causing your disease. Once your cells are modified, CABA-201 cells will be re-infused into your body intravenously (through the vein).

Research Evaluating Vagal Excitation and Anatomical Links
We are studying the effects of stimulating the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve connects the brain to many organs in the body. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is already approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat depression and epilepsy. We want to learn more about how it affects other parts of our bodies, such as the heart, metabolism, the immune system, and the nervous system. We hope that by understanding how VNS affects the body as a whole, we can develop new treatments for other conditions, or help to improve its use for depression and epilepsy.

Finding liver cancer early is important to increase chances of getting treatment and decreasing risk of dying from cancer. The purpose of this research is to compare the effectiveness of two liver cancer screening methods to detect liver cancer at an early stage.

MT2023-30: A Phase 1 Study of FT825/ONO-8250, an Off-the-Shelf CAR T-Cell Therapy, With or Without Monoclonal Antibodies, in HER2-Positive or Other Advanced Solid Tumors
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of FT825 at different doses and to understand the way the body processes and responds to FT825.
