About this trial

This is a phase I study to assess the safety and feasibility of IL-8 receptor modified patient-derived activated CD70 CAR T cell therapy in newly diagnosed and recurrent CD70+ Pediatric High-Grade Gliomas (pHGG) and Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (ndDIPG)

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Newly diagnosed high-grade glioma (WHO Grade III or IV)

Newly diagnosed DIPG (after first 2 HGG patients are treated)

Recurrent or progressive high-grade glioma

Age 4-18 years old for ndHGG. Age 4-30 for rHGG. Age 4-30 for nd DIPG.

Disqualifiers

Patients with primary spinal cord tumors ARE eligible.

CD70 positive (≥5%, 1+) The tumors from the surgical resection by immunohistochemistry will be confirmed by validated assay performed at UF Health Pathology, CLIA certified Lab.

Treatment groups

24 Participants
are divided into 3 treatment groups

Group C: Newly Diagnosed Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG)Experimental treatment 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Incidence of investigational treatment related severe toxicity (Dose-limiting toxicity event)

Safety is defined as the adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs) and dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) observed throughout the trial.

Time frame
administration of 8R-70CAR T to 28 days post-infusion
2

Prevalence of enrolled subjects who receive a qualified immunotherapy investigational product.

Feasibility will be measured by the number of patients who receive 8R-70CAR T-cell that met the FDA IND defined quality assurance and quality control release criteria. A minimum of 66.7 % of enrolled subjects must achieve this criterion for the feasibility endpoint.

Time frame
Enrollment up to 18 weeks
3

Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) dose-finding endpoint based on Dose-Limiting-Toxicity (DLT) incidence

Determination of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of 8R-70CAR T cells based on the incidence of investigational treatment-related severe toxicity (dose-limiting toxicity events)

Time frame
administration of 8R-70CAR T to 28 days post-infusion
