简要总结
This is an open-label phase 1 safety and feasibility study that will employ multi-tumor antigen specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (TSA-T) directed against proteogenomically determined personalized tumor-specific antigens (TSA) derived from a patient's primary brain tumor tissues. Young patients with embryonal central nervous system (CNS) malignancies typically are unable to receive irradiation due to significant adverse effects and are treated with intensive chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell rescue; however, despite intensive therapy, many of these patients relapse. In this study, individualized TSA-T cells will be generated against proteogenomically determined tumor-specific antigens after standard of care treatment in children less than 5 years of age with embryonal brain tumors. Correlative biological studies will measure clinical anti-tumor, immunological and biomarker effects.
详细描述
TSA-T products will be manufactured at the cell therapy Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) facility at Children's National Hospital (CNH). Patients enrolled in the study will receive their infusions at CNH.
This is an open-label phase 1 safety and feasibility study that will employ multi-tumor antigen specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (TSA-T) directed against proteogenomically determined personalized tumor-specific antigens (TSA), derived from a patient's primary brain tumor tissues. Participants in this study will receive TSA-T after completion of standard-of-care/salvage therapy for either their newly diagnosed embryonal brain tumor or their recurrent ependymoma. Participants will be enrolled into one of two Groups:
- Group A: Children younger than 5 years of age with newly diagnosed embryonal brain tumors - including medulloblastoma (MB), atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT), embryonal tumor with multilayered rosettes (ETMR), and embryonal brain tumor not otherwise specified (NOS).
- Group B: Children, adolescents and young adults greater than 1 year and less than 30 years of age with recurrent ependymoma (EPN).
Group A Standard-of-Care Backbone Therapy: Patients will undergo surgical resection, then be treated with standard-of-care therapy as required, which may include up to 3 induction chemotherapy cycles (vincristine, cyclophosphamide, cisplatin, etoposide with or without methotrexate) and up to 3 consolidation cycles (carboplatin and thiotepa, each followed by an infusion of autologous peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs)). Please note: Methotrexate may be part of the induction chemotherapy, and radiation may be added during backbone therapy, as per treating physician's discretion.
Group B Salvage Backbone Therapy: Patients will undergo surgical re-resection - aiming for gross total resection when feasible - followed by re-irradiation. Re-irradiation may be delivered as a conventional fractionated course, hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy, or proton therapy, depending on prior treatments, institutional guidelines and treating physician's discretion. Bridging chemotherapy may be administered between re-irradiation and TSA-T cell infusion, at the treating physician's discretion.
