Study summary

This is a single arm, open-label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of humanized anti-CD19 CAR-T cells in patients with relapsed or refractory B cell Malignancies.

Read the detailed description

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T cells (CAR-T cells) have the capabilities to recognize tumor associated antigen and kill tumor cells specifically. CAR-T therapy showed great effect on patients with relapsed or refractory B cell malignancies. To improve the efficacy and safety, the researchers designed a second-generation humanized CAR, consisting of humanized CD19 single chain variable fragment (scFv) and CD137 costimulatory domain. This study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of humanized anti-CD19 CAR-T cells in patients with relapsed or refractory B cell Malignancies.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of participants with adverse events

    Therapy-related adverse events were recorded and assessed according to the National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE, Version 4.0)

    Time frame: 5 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. One-month remission rate

    Response of B-ALL to CAR-T therapy was assessed on day 30 (±2), against the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN, Version 1.2015).

    Time frame: 1 month

  2. Overall survival

    OS was calculated from the first CAR-T cell infusion to death or last follow-up (censored).

    Time frame: 5 years

  3. Event-free survival

    EFS was calculated from the first CAR-T cell infusion to death, progression of the disease, relapse or gene recurrence, whichever came first, or last visit (censored).

    Time frame: 5 years

  4. Relapse-free survival

    RFS was calculated from the first CAR-T cell infusion to relapse or last visit (censored).

    Time frame: 5 years

  5. Rate of anti-CD19 CAR-T cells in bone marrow cells and peripheral blood cells

    In vivo (bone marrow and peripheral blood) rate of CAR-T cells were determined by means of flow cytometry.

    Time frame: 5 years

  6. Quantity of anti-CD19 CAR-T cells in bone marrow cells and peripheral blood cells

    In vivo (bone marrow and peripheral blood) quantity of CAR-T cells were determined by means of flow cytometry.

    Time frame: 5 years

  7. Quantity of anti-CD19 CAR copies in bone marrow cells and peripheral blood cells

    In vivo (bone marrow and peripheral blood) quantity of anti-CD19 CAR copies were determined by means of qPCR.

    Time frame: 5 years

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started May 2019 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jul 2022, 37 months after the start.

Of 67 industry-sponsored phase 1 interventional studies under Precursor Cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia-Lymphoma, half reached primary completion within 50 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 30 and three quarters within 76. This study's planned 37 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 234 studies reached it within 55 months; a quarter within 34 and three quarters within 89.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Aug 7, 2019, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
