简要总结
This is a single-center, open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the primary safety and efficacy of universal chimeric antigen receptor-modified AT19 cells in patients with relapsed or refractory hematological malignancies.
详细描述
- Adoptive transfer of autologous anti-CD19 CAR-T cells can induce durable remissions in patients with relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies, including CD19+ B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(B-ALL), B-cell chronic lymphoblastic leukemia(B-CLL), and B-cell lymphoma.
- However, multiple challenges exist for manufacturing CAR-T cells from patients with advanced disease including inability to manufacture a product, disease progression or death while waiting for the CAR-T product to be available, and heterogeneity among autologous CAR-T products that contributes to unpredictable and variable clinical activity.
- Healthy donor T cells can provide a source for production of universal CAR-T cells when combined with gene editing to prevent expression of endogenous TCRs and avoid generation of GvHD in HLA mismatched recipients.
- Cord blood derived T cells from healthy donor are the source for production of universal anti-CD19 CAR-modified AT19 cells. CRISPR/cas9 gene-editing technology has been used to knockout TCRs and HLA-I to avoid GvHD and transplant rejection.
- AT19 cells have exhibited potent cytotoxicity in CD19+ tumor cells and can effectively eradicate CD19+ tumor cells in xenograft mice models, without showing GvHD.
- This study aims to evaluate prelimary safety and efficacy of the universal AT19 cells in patients with relapsed/refractory B-ALL, B-CLL, and B-cell lymphoma.

研究组 & 干预措施
Fludarabine + Cyclophosphamide + AT19 cells
Patients will received lymphodepletion with fludarabine (30 mg/kg) and cyclophosphamide (300 mg/kg) on days -5, -4, and -3, followed by the infusions of AT19 cells on day 0-2. The study will be divided into three groups: B-ALL, B-CLL, and B-cell lymphoma. Doses of 0.5×10^7, 1.0×10^7, and 2.0×10^7 CAR+ T cells (with an allowance of ±20%) will be tested in each group in the 3+3 dose-escalation study. Each dose group has 3 patients. If no DLT emerges in the group, then the next group uses the subsequent higher dose. If DLT emerges in a single subject in any dose level, 3 more subjects will be enrolled to the same dose level.The maximum dose could be extended.
干预措施: Fludarabine + Cyclophosphamide + CAR-NK-CD19 Cells (Drug)
