简要总结
To assess the safety and biological efficacy of therapeutically administered most closely HLA-matched third party donor-derived specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) targeting cytomegalovirus (CMV) or Adenovirus (Adv) or Epstein Barr virus (EBV) or fungi including Aspergillus and Candida species for the treatment of viral infection following allogeneic blood or marrow stem cell or solid organ transplantation.
详细描述
The study will analyse the safety and biological efficacy of administering the investigational products (most closely HLA-matched third party donor-derived T cells stimulated with viral or fungal antigen expressing DC), for the treatment of viral reactivation and/or infection or fungal infection following allogeneic blood or marrow or solid organ transplantation. The cells will be given therapeutically after transplantation in patients with active viral reactivation or proven/probably fungal infection despite standard therapy.
Our AIMS are to study the safety of third party donor-derived CTL infusions, their effect on treatment of viral reactivation as well as their effect on reconstitution of virus- and fungus-specific immunity, viral and fungal infection and reactivation rates after transplantation, viral load, and use of antiviral and antifungal pharmacotherapy.
We will evaluate the safety of infusions with respect to the development of adverse events within the first 12 months post-CTL infusion and the dynamics of cell persistence by T-cell chimerism analysis.
