About this trial
Therapy with chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells has demonstrated activity against relapsed or refractory B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma and multiple myeloma, however not all tumors respond or remain in response to CD19 targeted CAR-T cells. We posit that CAR-T cells expressing BAFF (BAFF CAR-T cells) can become another strategy to treat refractory lymphoma, even after relapse following cluster of differentiation antigen 19 (CD19) targeting CAR-T treatment.
This Phase 2 study will establish the safety and efficacy profile of LMY-920.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
No evidence of CNS lymphoma.
Participant is ≥ 18 years of age.
ECOG Performance status ≤ 2.
> 2 weeks since prior radiation therapy or systemic therapy at the time of leukapheresis. Patients with mantle cell lymphoma that can only remain stable with continuation of prior BTK inhibitor may continue these agents up to 48 hours prior to apheresis.
Disqualifiers
ASCT within 6 weeks prior to informed consent.
History of allogeneic transplantation.
Active graft-versus-host disease.
Active central nervous system or meningeal involvement by lymphoma or leukemia. Subjects with untreated brain metastases/CNS disease will be excluded from this clinical trial because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events. Patients with a history of CNS or meningeal involvement must be in a documented remission by CSF evaluation and contrast-enhanced MRI imaging for at least 90 days prior to enrollment.
