About this trial

The purpose of this study is to describe feasibility of delivering point-of-care manufactured CD19-directed CAR T-cell therapy to patients with relapsed/ refractory B-lineage leukaemia/ lymphoma.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Relapsed or refractory B-cell ALL (all must be satisfied)

Presence of lymphoblasts in bone marrow aspirate by morphologic assessment or positive minimal residual disease at screening.

Relapsed or refractory or ineligible for HSCT

For relapsed B-ALL: Documentation of CD19 tumour expression (e.g. by flow cytometry) demonstrated in bone marrow or peripheral blood within 3 months of study entry

Disqualifiers

B-ALL with isolated extramedullary disease relapse

Patients with concomitant genetic syndrome: such as patients with Fanconi anaemia, Kostmann syndrome, Shwachman syndrome or any other known bone marrow failure syndrome. Patients with Down syndrome will not be excluded.

Patients with Burkitt's lymphoma/leukaemia (i.e. patients with mature B-cell ALL; leukaemia with B-cell [sIg positive and kappa or lambda restricted positivity] ALL, with FAB L3 morphology and /or a MYC translocation)

Active or latent hepatitis B or active hepatitis C (test within 8 weeks of screening), or any uncontrolled infection at screening

Trial design

Design model

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Anti-CD19 CAR T-cells

    Biological/Vaccine

    A target per-protocol dose of vi able CD19 CAR transduced T-cells will consist of a single infusion of 0.2 to 5.0 x 10e6 lentiviral-transduced viable 41BB-CD19 CAR T-cells per kg body weight.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Protocol Feasibility

To describe feasibility of delivering point-of-care manufactured CD19-directed CAR T-cell therapy to patients with relapsed / refractory B-lineage leukaemia / lymphoma by assessing number and percentage of enrolled patients who have successful manufacturing of CAR T-cell product, and number and percentage of enrolled patients who go on to receive the CAR T-cell product.

Time frame
3 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Overall Response Rate

To evaluate percentage of patients with complete response or partial response at 28 days, 3 months and 6 months post-infusion of the CD19-directed CAR T-cells.

Time frame
6 months
2

Toxicity Evaluations

To evaluate overall incidence (percentage of infused patients) of toxicities post-infusion of CAR T-cells, in particular cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity, and percentage with Grade 3 and above CRS and neurotoxicity following ASTCT definition and severity grading, and other toxicities as assessed by CTCAE v5.0.

Time frame
