About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for B Cell Lymphoma

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Relapsed or refractory CD19+ B-cell lymphoma or leukemia.
  • Measurable disease.
  • Performance status ECOG 0-2.
  • >18 years old.
  • Fertile females/males must consent to use contraceptives during participation of the trial.
  • Signed informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any significant medical or psychiatric illness that would prevent the patient from giving informed consent or from following the study procedures.
  • Patients with primary CNS lymphoma.
  • Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
  • Active and/or severe infection (e.g. tuberculosis, sepsis and opportunistic infections, active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or active hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection).
  • Other serious underlying medical conditions, which, in the Investigator's judgment, could impair the ability of the patient.
  • Treatment with an investigational product within 30 days prior to enrollment, or at least 5 half lives of that drug, which is longest.
  • Patients that do not consent to that tissue and blood samples are stored in a biobank.
  • Pregnancy

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells targeting CD19 will be evaluated for safety and efficacy in patients with B cell lymphoma or leukemia. The CAR consists of a CD19 targeting antibody scFv with three intracellular signaling domains derived from CD3 zeta, CD28 and 4-1BB. Autologous T cells will be gene engineered with the CAR gene using a retrovirus vector. Prior to T cell infusion, the patients will be subjected to preconditioning treatment. After T cell infusion, the patients will be evaluated for 24 months for adverse reactions, persistence of CAR T cells and efficacy.
