-Refractory CD19+ high grade NHL- defined as less than 50% reduction in lymph node size (nodes >2cm) or persisting organ enlargement or the appearance of new lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly or marrow involvement after chemotherapy or Deauville 5 PET positive disease on interim PET scan after 4 cycles of chemotherapy
- Relapsed CD19+ high grade NHL ineligible for autologous stem cell transplant or after autologous stem cell transplant
-Refractory CD19+ low grade NHL- defined as less than 50% reduction in lymph node size (nodes >2cm) or persisting organ enlargement or the appearance of new lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly or marrow involvement after chemotherapy
-Relapsed CD19+ low grade NHL less than 12 months from chemotherapy or third or greater relapse
-Refractory CLL defined as resistance to purine analogues with less than 50% reduction in lymph node size (nodes >2cm) and/or lymphocytosis, or persisting organ enlargement after initial therapy or progression/relapse requiring therapy less than 6 months post chemotherapy.
-CLL Richters transformation
-Persistent CD19+ ALL after consolidation, defined as not in CR by morphology, flow, cytogenetics or molecular methods after induction chemotherapy (includes MRD at or above threshold as assessed by flow cytometry or molecular methods)
-Relapsed CD19+ ALL as assessed by morphology, flow, cytogenetics or molecular methods at any time point during or after standard therapy
