This study is a single-center, open-label, single-dose clinical trial of anti-CD19-CAR-T cell therapy in relapsed/refractory B-cell tumor patients after Qinglin pre-treatment.
In this study phase, a traditional "3+3" trial design is employed for dose escalation.
The study plans to include CD19-positive relapsed/refractory B-cell tumor patients. After the screening period, peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) collection, and lymphocyte depletion pre-treatment period, subjects will receive a single infusion of anti-CD19-CAR-T cells. In addition to the baseline period, efficacy assessments will be conducted monthly for ALL subjects and at weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48 post-treatment for NHL subjects, until disease progression (PD), relapse, change of treatment regimen, death, intolerable toxicity, at the discretion of the investigator, or voluntary withdrawal by the patient (whichever occurs first).
Toxicity will be evaluated according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE, version 5.0). Safety of anti-CD19-CAR-T cell therapy will be evaluated through laboratory tests, 12-lead electrocardiograms, vital signs, physical examinations, etc. Blood samples will be collected from subjects to assess cellular pharmacokinetics and explore the effects of cellular drugs on ferritin, C-reactive protein, and related cytokines.
Patients who are refractory or relapsed after current standard treatments (including allogeneic or autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation), and not suitable for other treatment options such as a second hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is defined as one of the following:
Relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is defined as one of the following:
Refractory after ASCT
(6) ECOG performance status ≤2.
(7) Estimated life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.
(8) Adequate venous access (for single collection) and no other contraindications to blood cell separation.
(9) Laboratory test results at screening must meet the following requirements, and subjects must not have received colony-stimulating factors (G-CSF/PEG-CSF) within 2 weeks prior to hematological assessment (except for low-dose steroids):
(10) Left ventricular ejection fraction ≥45%, echocardiography (ECHO) confirms no clinically significant pericardial effusion (except for trace or physiological), and electrocardiography results have no clinical significance.
(11) Baseline oxygen saturation in room air >92%.
(12) Women of childbearing potential must have negative serum or urine pregnancy tests (women who have undergone surgical sterilization or have been postmenopausal for at least 2 years are not considered women of childbearing potential).
Exclusion Criteria:
(1) ALL with central nervous system abnormalities, excluding clinically evident neurological changes CNS-2 and CNS-3.
Note: Subjects with CNS-1 (no tumor cells detected in CSF) and CNS-2 with no clinically evident neurological changes are eligible for this study.
(2) Evidence of central nervous system lymphoma on brain MRI; active primary central nervous system DLBCL, unless the central nervous system involvement has been effectively treated (i.e., participants are asymptomatic), and >4 weeks have elapsed since local treatment before enrollment.
(3) Active central nervous system diseases such as epilepsy, cerebrovascular ischemia/hemorrhage, dementia, cerebellar diseases, or any autoimmune diseases involving the central nervous system.
(4) History of or concurrent malignancies other than CD19+ malignancies.
(5) Clinically significant cardiac diseases, or arrhythmias not controlled by medication.
(6) Presence or suspicion of uncontrolled fungal, bacterial, viral, or other infections, or requiring intravenous antibiotic therapy; simple urinary tract infections and uncomplicated bacterial pharyngitis are allowed if responsive to treatment and after consultation with the sponsor's medical monitor.
(7) Hepatitis B (positive for hepatitis B surface antigen and/or positive for hepatitis B core antibody with hepatitis B DNA >1000 copies/ml) and hepatitis C (positive for hepatitis C antibody); syphilis, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
(8) Presence of any indwelling catheter or drainage tube (such as percutaneous nephrostomy tube, indwelling Foley catheter, bile drainage tube, or pleural/peritoneal/pericardial catheter); use of dedicated central venous access devices such as Port-A-Cath® or Hickman® catheters is allowed.
(9) Prior medication:
(10) Active graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) using CIBMTR acute GVHD grading system ≥ grade 2 or requiring systemic steroids greater than physiological doses.
(11) History of autoimmune diseases in the past 2 years (such as Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus) resulting in end-organ damage or requiring systemic immunos uppressive/disease-modifying therapy.
(12) History of myocardial infarction, cardiac vascular surgery or stent implantation, unstable angina, or other clinically significant cardiac diseases within 12 months prior to enrollment.
(13) History of genetic syndromes associated with bone marrow failure, such as Fanconi anemia, Costello syndrome, Shwachman-Diamond syndrome, etc.
(14) Symptomatic deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism requiring systemic anticoagulation within the past 6 months. Subjects need to be on prophylactic anticoagulation.
(15) Past or present concurrent malignancies (excluding skin basal cell carcinoma, breast/cervical carcinoma in situ, and other malignancies that have not been treated and effectively controlled in the past five years).
(16) Use of other investigational medicinal products within 30 days prior to screening.
(17) Pregnant or lactating women of childbearing age, due to potential risks of chemotherapy to the fetus or infant. Women who have undergone surgical sterilization or have been postmenopausal for at least 2 years are not considered of childbearing potential.
(18) Subjects unwilling to practice contraception from the agreement to treatment completion of conditional chemotherapy or CAR T infusion within 12 months (whichever is longer).
(19) Any medical conditions that may interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the study treatment.
(20) Subjects unlikely, in the investigator's judgment, to complete all protocol-required study visits or procedures, including follow-up, or comply with study requirements.
(21) Previous use of any CAR-T cell products or other genetically modified T cell therapies.
anti-CD19-CAR-T cell infusion. Infusion doses: The planned infusion doses are as follows: the first dose group at 1×10\^5 cells/kg; the second dose group at 3×10\^5 cells/kg; the third dose group at 1×10\^6 cells/kg. Infusion doses refer to the number of CAR-positive cells. Administration route: anti-CD19-CAR-T cells are administered via intravenous drip at a rate of approximately 2 to 5 mL/minute using an infusion pump, with a recommended infusion time of less than 30 minutes.
Biological: anti-CD19-CAR-T cells
Before cell infusion, Investigator may decide, based on necessity, whether to administer prophylactic medication, which may include options such as acetaminophen and diphenhydramine, or H1 antihistamines, among others. Subjects are allowed to receive adequate supportive care after anti-CD19-CAR-T cell infusion, including blood transfusions and blood products, antibiotic therapy, antiemetics, antidiarrheals, analgesics, etc.
Incidence of dose-limiting toxicity
The proportion of patients receiving CAR-T cells who encounter dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). Safety evaluations are performed in accordance with the NCI-CTCAE version 5.0 standards (Cytokine Release Syndrome and neurotoxicity will be graded based on ASTCT/ASBMT grading criteria).
Time frame: Up to 28 days from CAR-T infusion
