About this trial

In recent years, immunotherapy (eg. blinatumomab, inotuzumab ozogamicin, CAR-T cells) has demonstrated a high safety and efficacy profile in relapsed/refractory (R/R)B-ALL. The available data suggest that the advancement of immunotherapy from relapsed/refractory (R/R) field to the frontline setting may be an important approach to increase the depth of remission, which ultimately translates into a survival benefit. In this study, the investigators propose a treatment regimen using CAR-T cell therapy as a consolidation method for Ph- B-ALL patients achieving complete remission (CR) with chemotherapy, aiming to reduce the total cycles of chemotherapy and related toxicities, shorten length of hospitalization, and ultimately improve patients' survival and quality of life.The study endpoints include 2-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate, overall survival (OS) rate, event-free survival (EFS) rate, cumulative molecular remission rate, immune repertoire-minimal residual disease (MRD) remission rate, cumulative relapse rate, treatment-related toxicities, and quality of life. Additionally, an interim analysis will be conducted, with the 1-year DFS rate as the key index for this analysis.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Disease-free Survival (DFS)

From CR1 to relapse, death from any cause or last follow-up

Time frame
Up to 2 years post-registration

Secondary outcomes

1

MRD-negative complete remission rate measured by flow cytometry.

No blasts were detected by flow cytometry when CR criteria were met after induction therapy.

Time frame
After induction (4 week)]
2

Overall survival (OS)

From the date of registration to the date of death resulting from any cause.

Time frame
Up to 5 years post-registration
3

Event-free survival (EFS)

From the date of registration to the date of induction failure, relapse, death from any cause, or last follow-up

Time frame
Up to 5 years post-registration
4

MRD-negative complete remission rate measured by NGS tracking clonal IG/TR rearrangements

No clonal IG/TR rearrangements were detected by NGS

Time frame
Up to 1 year post-registration

Other outcomes

Interim analysis index

It is planned to conduct one interim analysis in the study: when the median follow-up date of patients reaches 1 year, the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) will perform a hypothesis test by comparing the 1-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate (the primary endpoint) of the trial group with the 70% 1-year DFS rate of the historical control. The alpha (α) spending function will be calculated using the O'Brien-Fleming method. If the DFS rate of the trial group is found to be significantly superior to that of the historical control in the interim analysis and achieves statistical significance at the nominal significance level αk, the trial may be terminated early. If no statistically significant difference is observed between the two groups in the interim analysis, the investigators will decide whether to continue the trial based on practical circumstances.

Time frame
From enrollment to 12 months
