About this trial
This Phase I study will evaluate the safety of autologous Epstein-Barr virus-specific T lymphocytes modified to express a constitutively active IL7 receptor (C7R) and a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) for CD30 (C7R.CD30-CAR-EBVSTs) in patients with relapsed or refractory CD30-positive lymphomas.
Participants who meet procurement eligibility criteria will undergo collection of peripheral blood mononuclear cells for manufacture of the investigational product. Participants with a successfully manufactured product who continue to meet treatment eligibility criteria will receive lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by infusion of autologous C7R.CD30-CAR-EBVSTs.
The primary objective is to evaluate safety. Secondary and exploratory objectives include evaluation of antitumor effect, expansion and persistence of the infused cells, and the association between immunological parameters, safety, and clinical response.

Treatments tested in this trial
Autologous C7R.CD30-CAR-EBVSTs
Biological/VaccineAutologous Epstein-Barr virus-specific T lymphocytes genetically modified to express a constitutively active interleukin-7 receptor (C7R), a CD30-specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), and an inducible caspase 9 (iC9) safety switch. The investigational product is manufactured from autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells and administered by intravenous infusion following lymphodepleting chemotherapy.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Incidence of Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)
Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as any of the following considered possibly, probably, or definitely related to study cellular products: (1) Grade 5 event without disease progression; (2) CRS: Grade 4, or Grade 3 not improving to ≤Grade 2 within 72 hours despite therapy; (3) ICANS: Grade 4, or Grade 3 not improving within 72 hours despite therapy; (4) Grade ≥3 IEC-HS; (5) Grade 4 neutropenia or thrombocytopenia not attributable to underlying disease or lymphodepleting chemotherapy and not improving to ≤Grade 2 within 42 days, or Grade 3 thrombocytopenia with clinically significant major bleeding; (6) Grade ≥3 vital organ toxicity (except transient hepatic or renal abnormalities improving to ≤Grade 2 within 7 days); (7) other Grade 3 toxicities not attributable to underlying disease or lymphodepleting chemotherapy and not resolving to ≤Grade 2 within 72 hours; (8) Grade ≥2 allergic reaction to T-cell infusion.
Secondary outcomes
Antitumor Effect
Antitumor effect will be assessed by investigator evaluation of objective response (complete response and partial response) using Lugano criteria.\[
