简要总结
This will be a Phase 1, open-label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BEAM-201 in patients with R/R T-ALL or T-LLy. BEAM-201 is an allogeneic anti-CD7 CART therapy.
详细描述
Despite favorable outcomes in newly diagnosed patients, approximately 20% of pediatric and young adult T-ALL patients and 40% of adult patients will have refractory disease or will relapse within 2 years of their initial diagnosis. Survival rates of patients with relapsed disease remain below 35%. For recurrent disease, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is the only known potentially curative treatment. However, a prerequisite to HSCT is obtaining a complete remission, which remains a significant challenge as only 40 to 50% of patients achieve a second remission with current reinduction regimens with salvage rates even lower for patients with disease that is refractory to first-line chemotherapy.
BEAM-201 is an allogeneic anti-CD7 CAR T cell product that has shown promising early evidence of efficacy, with 3 out of 4 adult T-ALL patients infused had a CRi/CR ≥28 days after infusion. Safety of BEAM-201 has been favorable and consistent with known adverse events associated with other CAR T cell therapies.
Given the current treatment landscape of T-ALL/T-LLy, promising clinical experience with BEAM-201, and that >98% of T-ALL cases highly and homogenously express CD7 protein on the surfaces of their lymphoblasts, the investigators think there is compelling rationale in further investigating the safety and efficacy of BEAM-201 in pediatric patients.

入选标准
- •Patients must meet all the following criteria to be eligible for enrollment into the study:
- •Patients (ages ≥ 18 years) or parent/legal guardians (for patients ages < 18 years) must provide signed, written informed consent according to local IRB and institutional requirements.
- •Ages 0 to 29 years.
- •T-ALL/T-LLy in second or greater relapse, first relapse post-transplant, or chemotherapy-refractory disease. Specifically:
- •Second or greater relapse or post-transplant relapse, defined as:
- •BM with ≥ 5% lymphoblasts by morphologic assessment or evidence of extramedullary disease after second documented CR; OR
- •Flow cytometric confirmation of relapsed T-ALL of at least 0.1% after second CR documented to have been MRD negative < 0.1%; OR
- •Any detectable relapsed disease post-allogeneic HSCT with flow cytometric confirmation of T-ALL of at least 0.1%; OR
- •Biopsy confirmed evidence of relapsed T-LLy after second CR; OR
- •Any detectable disease post-allogeneic transplant with biopsy confirmed evidence of T-LLy
- •Refractory disease, defined as:
- •Primary refractory T-ALL or T-LLy, defined as failure to achieve CR after induction chemotherapy, per investigator assessment and based on biopsy-or MRD-confirmed evidence of residual T-ALL or T-LLy; OR
- •Relapsed, refractory disease, defined as > 0.1 % MRD or morphologic evidence of disease or evidence of residual T-LLy after 1 course of re-induction chemotherapy for patients who have relapsed after previously achieving a CR NOTE: Patients with mixed phenotype acute leukemia with T cell dominant phenotype may be enrolled if the aforementioned criteria are met.
- •Documentation of CD7 expression on leukemic or T-LLy blasts (defined as at least 90% of blasts positive for CD7 by flow cytometry or immunohistochemistry).
- •Patients with prior or current history of CNS3 disease will be eligible if CNS disease is responsive to therapy
- •Eligible for myeloablative conditioning for and allogeneic HSCT based on the investigator's assessment with an available donor identified by a FACT accredited transplant center.
- •Lansky Performance Status (ages < 16 years at time of consent) or Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) (ages ≥ 16 years at time of consent) score of ≥
- •Patients of childbearing potential must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test at screening.
- •Adequate organ function defined as:
- •Adequate Serum creatinine based on age/gender
- •ALT ≤ 5x ULN in the absence of ALL infiltration of the liver
- •Bilirubin ≤ 3 × ULN for age Note: ALT and/or bilirubin results that exceed this range are acceptable if, in the opinion of the physician-investigator (or as confirmed by liver biopsy), the abnormalities are directly related to ALL infiltration of the liver.
- •Must have a minimum level of pulmonary reserve defined as ≤ Grade 1 dyspnea and <Grade 3 hypoxia; DLCO ≥40% (corrected for anemia if necessary) if PFTs are clinically appropriate as determined by the investigator.
- •Cardiac echocardiography (ECHO) with left ventricular shortening fraction (LVSF) ≥ 30% or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50%. In cases where quantitative assessment of LVSF/LVEF is not possible, a statement by the cardiologist that the ECHO shows qualitatively normal ventricular function will suffice
- •Patients who are sexually active and of reproductive potential must agree to use an acceptable form of highly effective contraception from consent to 12 months after BEAM 201 infusion.

- •Active HTLV infection
- •HIV infection
- •Uncontrolled, active bacterial, viral, or fungal infection.

研究组 & 干预措施
Dose Escalation Arm
The dose escalation portion of the trial will use a standard "3+3" design to establish the recommended maximum tolerated dose of BEAM-201 cells. Three dose escalations of BEAM-201 are planned for the dose escalation phase, with one dose de-escalation level if needed. Should there be sufficient clinical response at lower doses (i.e. DL1 or DL2), then the sponsor and principal investigator may choose to forgo further dose escalation and proceed to dose expansion at the lower dose level.
干预措施: Allogeneic anti-CD7 CAR-T cells (BEAM-201) (Biological)
Dose Expansion Arm
If at least one dose level of the dose escalation phase is determined to be safe, the dose expansion phase of the trial will be opened to enrollment.
