Study summary

The purpose of this study is to estimate the safety and the efficacy of CAR- T cells immunotherapy for children/young adults with relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

Locally manufactured second generation autologous CD19 CAR-T cells are used for immunotherapy. Protocol treatment includes lymphodepleting conditioning (fludarabine + cyclophosphamide) followed by one CAR-T cells intravenous infusion with tocilizumab premedication.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • CD19+ lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma;
  • or Lansky performance scale greater or equal to 70;
  • T-cells count in peripheral blood >150 cells/µL;
  • Written .

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • primary immunodeficiencies or genetic syndromes;
  • neurologic diseases;
  • diseases or polyallergie;
  • transfusion of donor lymphocyte less than 6 week before CAR-T cells infusion;
  • GvHD grade 2-4;
  • uncontrolled systemic infection;
  • hypoxia (Sp02\<90%)
  • severe hepatic dysfunction: or AST >=3x for age;
  • renal dysfunction: serum creatinine level >=3x upper limit of normal for age;
  • positive serology for (HIV), active hepatite C or B;
  • pregnancy.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Relapsed and refractory

Relapsed: the illness came back after treatment had worked. Refractory: it did not respond to treatment, or stopped responding while still on it.

Karnofsky performance status (KPS)

A 0–100 scale of how well someone can carry out everyday activities. 100 is no complaints and no signs of illness; 70 is able to look after yourself but not to work or keep up normal activity; 50 is needing considerable help and frequent medical care.

Studies often ask for 60 or 70 and above. Your doctor gives the score.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Autoimmune disease

A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.

Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.

Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.

ULN (upper limit of normal)

The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.

“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events

    Adverse events will be graded according to the CTCAE v5.0

    Time frame: 1 month

Secondary outcomes

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) (CR+CRi+CRm)

    The proportion of patients with complete remission (CR), CR with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi), complete molecular remission (CRm).

    Time frame: 28 days after CAR-T cells infusion

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    The proportion of patients with overall survival

    Time frame: 1 year

  3. Events free survival (EFS)

    Time from CAR-T cells infusion to CR failure, relapse, or death.

    Time frame: 1 year

  4. Leukemia free survival (LFS)

    Time from achievement of CR/CRi/CRm to the time of relapse, death in remission, or last follow-up.

    Time frame: 1 year
