Brief Summary: The goal of this phase III clinical trial is to compare B-cell depletion by rituximab and anti-CD 19 CAR-T therapy in patients with rheumatoid arthritis The main questions it aims to answer are

To assess the safety of anti-CD19 CAR T cell therapy in subjects with active ACPA positive and treatment refractory RA Phase-I
To assess the safety of anti-CD19 CAR T cell therapy and of rituximab in subjects with active ACPA positive and treatment refractory RA Phase-II
To assess ACPA seroconversion after anti-CD19 CAR T cell or rituximab therapy in subjects with active ACPA positive and treatment refractory RA Phase-II

Participants in the test-arm will receive a single dose of KYV-101 iv an autologous fully-human anti-CD19 CAR T-cell immunotherapy In the comparator group patients will receive 2x1 g Rituximab iv

Follow-up time both arms is 52 weeks with regular visits at the site
Detailed Description: This study aims to investigate the use of either rituximab as an established therapy or KYV101 a fully human anti-CD19 CAR T cell therapy in ACPA-positive RA patients who are refractory to previous treatments This study is designed to determine and compare i the safety of these two B-cell targeted therapies ii their clinical efficacy iii their impact on the immunological status of the patient and in particular on ACPA positivity and iv their ability to induce long-term deep clinical and molecular remission and drug-free survival

The investigational product IMP KYV-101 is an autologous fully-human anti-CD19 CAR T-cell immunotherapy Before IMP infusion patients will receive a premedication of 4 mg Dimetindenmaleat iv or equivalent antihistamine and 1000 mg oral acetaminophene Prophylactic doses of acyclovir of 400mg 2x daily as well as cotrimoxazole 960mg 3x weekly will be administered orally following CAR T cell infusion until week 24 Tocilizumab 8mgkg will be administered intravenously when required for treatment of IMP-related cytokine release syndrome Dexamethasone as needed will be administered intravenously when required for treatment of neurological adverse event ICANS

In the control arm in phase II rituximab will be administered Rituximab a chimeric monoclonal antibody targeting CD20 induces B cell depletion and is authorized for treatment of RA A dose of 1000 mg will be administered intravenously at baseline and at day 14 as per summary of product characteristics The need for further courses will be evaluated 24 weeks after baseline where retreatment of 1000 mg rituximab may be initiated if residual disease activity remains

Follow-up time both arms is 52 weeks with regular visits at the site
