Nothing recorded among them since 2026-09-25.
Background:
B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is a type of blood cancer. Some people with B-ALL have a gene mutation that makes the disease hard to treat. The mutation causes cancer cells to make too much of a protein called thymic stromal lymphopoietin receptor (TSLPR). Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy is a treatment that takes immune cells (T cells) from a person s body and modifies them to attack specific proteins. Researchers want to test whether TSLPR-CART cells can be given safely to adults with forms of B-cell leukemia, and to learn whether the treatment may help fight these cancers.
Objective:
To test TSLPR-CART in people with B-ALL.
Eligibility:
People aged 18 years and older with B-ALL that did not respond or returned after treatment. They must have TSLPR on their B-ALL.
Design:
Participants will be screened. They will have imaging scans and tests of their heart function. Samples will be taken from their bone marrow. They will have a lumbar puncture: A needle will be inserted into their back to collect a sample of the fluid around the spinal cord.
Participants will undergo leukapheresis: Blood will be taken from their body through a tube. The blood will pass through a machine that separates out the T cells. The remaining blood will be returned to the body through a different tube. The T cells will be used to create TSLPR-CART.
Participants will take chemotherapy over 5 days to prepare their body for the therapy; then they will receive the modified cells through a tube inserted into a vein. Staying in the hospital during part of the treatment is expected and participants will be monitored locally to evaluate for side effects. Approximately 1 month after receiving TSLPR-CART, participants will undergo evaluations to see how the TSLPR-CART impacted their leukemia. Participants will have follow-up visits for 2 years after TSLPR-CART either at NIH or at home....
Background:
CRLF2 rearrangements and the poor clinical outcomes of patients with Ph-like ALL, TSLPR is a promising target for new immunotherapies.
Objective:
-To assess the safety of administering escalating doses of autologous anti-CRLF2-R/TSLPR-CAR engineered T cells (TSLPR-CART) containing a truncated epidermal growth factor (tEGFR) suicide switch to determine a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in participants with recurrent or refractory CRLF2/TSLPR-overexpressing B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) following a cyclophosphamide/fludarabine lymphodepletion regimen.
Eligibility:
Design:
Additional participants in an expansion cohort will be treated at an MTD dose to evaluate the rate of response to TSLPR-CAR T cells. Participants will be evaluated for toxicity, anti-tumor response, CAR expansion and persistence, and other biologic correlatives.

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: the illness came back after treatment had worked. Refractory: it did not respond to treatment, or stopped responding while still on it.
Stem cell (bone marrow) transplants. Allogeneic uses cells from a donor; autologous uses your own cells, collected earlier and given back.
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.
Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.
A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.
Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.
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.
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.
How quickly the kidneys clear creatinine, a waste product, from the blood. A study may estimate it from a blood test with age, weight and sex (often by the Cockcroft–Gault formula), or measure it using blood and urine collected over a set time. Given in mL/min; higher is better.
The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.
Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.
A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).
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.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.
Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.
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.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.
Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.
Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.
An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.
After a transplant from a donor, the donor’s immune cells attack the recipient’s body, often the skin, gut or liver.

TSLPR-CART at escalating doses
Biological: TSLPR-CART · Drug: Cyclophosphamide · Drug: Fludarabine
TSLPR-CART at MTD or highest dose administered
Biological: TSLPR-CART · Drug: Cyclophosphamide · Drug: Fludarabine
TSLPR CAR transduced T cells on D0 after lymphodepleting preparative regimen
Cyclophosphamide will be diluted in an appropriate solution and infused over one hour. The dose will be based on the patient s body weight, at 500 mg/m\^2/dose after fludarabine infusion on days -3 and -2.
Fludarabine is administered as an IV infusion in an appropriate solution over 30 minutes on days -5 through -2. To prevent undue toxicity the dose will be based on BSA (30 mg/m\^2/dose).
To assess the safety of administering escalating doses of TSLPR-CART containing a tEGFR suicide switch to determine an MTD
Safety analyses will consist of tabulations of grades of toxicity by type of toxicity
Time frame: 28 days post cell infusion
Efficacy of TSLPR-CART
The Best Overall Response (BOR) will be assessed at end of study, based upon the disease assessments recorded during the study visits, and reported by dose level with a separate evaluation in the 12 participants per category treated at the MTD, in terms of confirmed complete response/partial response (CR/PR), unconfirmed CR/PR, SD, or PD. The rate of relapse from CR prior to end of study will also be summarized by dose level only for the participants who achieve confirmed CR during the study. The overall objective response rate (CR + PR) will be summarized by dose level. The Duration of Response (DOR) will be summarized for those participants who achieve objective response (CR + PR). In participants who have a confirmed response, DOR will be calculated from the first date of documented response until progressive disease (PD). Unconfirmed CR or PR is defined as the first documentation of response
Time frame: 2 years post cell infusion
1-year and 2-year OS (overall survival)
OS will be determined as the time from the start of the preparative regimen until death.
Time frame: 2 years post cell infusion
