A Phase 1 interventional study of Allogeneic TCR-enhanced γδ T cell(QH101) and Fludarabine (FLU) in MDS and AML, sponsored by Anhui Provincial Hospital. Not yet recruiting. Open to participants aged 14 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-08-20.

QH101 is an allogeneic TCR-enhanced Vδ2 T cell therapy product engineered to express BTN protein-specific binding elements on the cell surface. This innovative approach harnesses the natural cytotoxic capabilities of Vδ2 T cells while augmenting their ability to recognize BTN proteins, thereby significantly improving tumor cell elimination efficiency. Notably, QH101 is designed without co-stimulatory signal domains or the CD3ζ domain, which prevents T cell exhaustion from overactivation and effectively enhances in vivo persistence.
Patients with R/R AML face particularly poor prognoses, with conventional chemotherapy and targeted therapies achieving suboptimal complete remission rates and long-term survival below 10%. Similarly, R/R MDS patients typically demonstrate median overall survival of less than one year (with TP53-mutated cases showing even poorer outcomes of 3-6 months), making clinical trial participation the most viable therapeutic option.
The development of effective treatments for R/R AML/MDS presents significant challenges due to:1)The paucity of disease-specific molecular targets;2)The slow progress in drug development. Allogeneic γδ T-cell therapy featuring enhanced TCR functionality and multi-mechanism tumoricidal activity represents a promising investigational approach for addressing R/R AMLMDS. This innovative strategy combines the advantages of: 1)Improved target recognition through TCR enhancement; 2)Multi-faceted tumor-killing mechanisms; 3)Potential for better safety and persistence profiles.

Exclusion criteria:
Patients with R/R AML or MDS. A conditioning chemotherapy regimen of fludarabine and cyclophosphamide will be administered followed by investigational treatment, QH101 product.
Drug: Allogeneic TCR-enhanced γδ T cell(QH101) · Drug: Fludarabine (FLU) · Drug: Cyclophosphamide (CTX)
dose escalation (3+3) : dose 1 (5×10\^8 enTCR γδ cells) , dose 2 (1.5×10\^9 enTCR γδ cells), dose 3 (3×10\^9 enTCR γδ cells)
Intravenous fludarabine 20\~30 mg/m\^2/day on days -5, -4, and -3

Incidence of AE
AE is defined as any adverse medical event occurring from the date of lymphocyte depletion to 12 months after QH101 infusion. Among these, cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) are graded according to the standards set by the American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT). Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is graded according to the standards defined by the Mount Sinai Acute GVHD International Consortium. Other AEs are graded according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0.
Time frame: 12 months
Incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT)
Time frame: Within 28 days post-cell infusion
Pharmacokinetics: Persistence of QH101
Persistence of QH101 assessed by number in peripheral blood.
Time frame: 12 months
Overall response rate (ORR)
The proportion of subjects achieving CR (complete remission)/CRh (complete remission with partial hematological recovery)/CRi (complete remission with incomplete hematological recovery)/PR (partial remission)
Time frame: 12 months
Immunogenicity: Proportion of subjects with anti drug antibody (ADA)
Time frame: 12 months
Pharmacodynamics: Peak level of cytokines in serum
The cytokines mainly include interleukin-2 (IL-2 ), IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interferon-γ(IFN-γ). Peak was defined as the maximum post-baseline level of the cytokine.
Time frame: Up to 28 days after infusion
