Study summary

The goal of this Phase I/II, single arm, prospective, open label, dose escalation trial is to assess safety, feasibility and efficacy of ex vivo expanded autologous T cells genetically modified to express a T cell receptor (TCR) specific for dNPM1 peptides restricted to human leukocyte antigen (HLA) A*02:01 in patients with relapsed or refractory AML.

Read the detailed description

The investigational medicinal product (IMP) MB-dNPM1-TCR.1 is designed to effectively target malignant myeloid cells in patients suffering from relapsed or refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with mutated Nucleophosmin. Autologous T cells will be genetically engineered using a lentiviral vector to express a T cell receptor (TCR) specific for certain dNPM1 peptides restricted to human leukocyte antigen (HLA) A*02:01. The dNPM1-TCR transduced T cells target specifically the HLA/dNPM1 peptide complex on the cell surface of leukemic myeloid cells and eliminate these. During the treatment, the patients will undergo a leukapheresis, a lymphodepleting chemotherapy and an administration of the expanded dNPM1-TCR transduced T cells.

Phase I: Since this is a first in human trial the primary goal in phase I is to establish the recommended dose of MB-dNPM1-TCR.1 for phase II. We assess the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) with toxicity defined as patients experiencing dose limiting toxicity (DLT) until day 28 after infusion of MB-dNPM1-TCR.1. Therefore a BOIN trial design will be used to guide dose escalation and de-escalation decisions in phase I.

Phase II: The second phase will evaluate the efficacy and safety in patients treated with the recommended dose from phase I. The phase II part follows a Simon's 'minimax' two stage design.

    • No morphological CR or extramedullary AML after at least two courses of intensive chemotherapy, decitabine or other standard therapy or
    • MRD positive after at least two courses of intensive chemotherapy or other standard therapy and not eligible for allogeneic stem cell transplantation or
    • Relapsed bone marrow or blood disease or extramedullary AML after CR after first line treatment and not eligible to undergo allogeneic stem cell transplantation or
    • Bone marrow, blood, extramedullary AML relapse or non-response or MRD positivity after allogeneic stem cell transplantation and not eligible to receive Donor Lymphocyte Infusion (DLI) according to local standards, relapse or MRD positive after DLI.
  4. Positive for HLA-A*02:01 according to genotyping results.
  5. AML has NPM1 mutation which is recognized by dNPM1-TCR.1 and for which a specific Q-PCR is available for disease monitoring.
  6. Number of circulating WBC above 1x109/L with less than 50% leukemic blasts and 0.03 x 109 CD8+ T cells/L.
  7. Life expectancy of at least 3 months.
  8. ECOG performance status 0-3.
  9. Negative pregnancy test in women of childbearing potential.
  10. For fertile men and women, agreement to use highly effective contraceptive methods during the trial.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Pregnant or breast feeding women.
  2. Active infection with HIV-1, HIV-2, HBV, HCV, HTLV-I, HTLV-II, SARS-CoV-2 or Treponema Pallidum.
  3. Any clinically significant, advanced or unstable disease or inadequate main organ function that may put the patient at increased risk for severe complications of trial participation at the discretion of the investigator.
  4. Use of systemic immune suppression including, but not limited to:

    immunosuppressive agents such as cyclosporine or corticosteroids (at an equivalent dose of 0.5 mg prednisone/kg body weight per day, or higher). Inhaled steroid and physiological replacement for adrenal insufficiency are allowed.

  5. Unwillingness or inability to comply with procedures required in this clinical trial protocol.
  6. Uncontrolled life-threatening infections or uncontrolled disseminated intravascular coagulation; however, if these problems resolve, the start of treatment can be initiated on a delayed schedule.
  7. Subjects currently on any other IMP (including within the last 30 days before start of treatment).
  8. Current use of high dose immunosuppression for immune disorders interfering with T cell function (on discretion of the investigator).

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Primary endpoint Phase I

    Maximum tolerated dose (MTD), as identified by a Bayesian Optimal Interval (BOIN) design at a target toxicity rate of 30%, with toxicity defined as patients experiencing dose limiting toxicity (DLT) until day 28 (week 4) after infusion of MB-dNPM1-TCR.1.

    Time frame: day 28

  2. Primary endpoint Phase II

    BOR rate to the treatment with MB-dNPM1-TCR.1 assessed at any time within the first 3 months (12 weeks) after infusion as described above.
