About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Hematologic Malignancy focused on measuring acute myeloid leukemia, minimal residual disease, hematologic malignancies, human T Lymphoid Progenitor, umbilical cord blood transplantation
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Adult patients (≥ 18 years old and <66 years old) at the time of inclusion and eligible for an allogeneic stem cells transplantation and fit to receive the specified conditioning regimen
- Patients with hematologic malignancies
- Absence of a matched - related sibling donor (MSD) or a matched unrelated donor (MUD) 10/10
- SORROR score compatible with the pre specified conditioning and to discuss with the Principal Investigator
- Presence of two UCB units with the following criteria*: HLA- matched 4/8, 5/8, 6/8, 7/8 or 8/8 for HLA- A, -B, -C and DRB1 loci AND
- Presence of at least one UCB unit with the following criteria*: ≥ 3 x 10e7 TNC/kg or ≥ 1.5 10e5 CD34+/kg pre- freezing * For the UCB taken into HTLP culture, the CD34+ content does not need to meet the above cellularity criteria, as expansion during HTLP culture has been proven to ensure the appropriate number of CD7+ needed for each dose.
The non- cultured UCB will be chosen to have a higher CD34+ cell content in order to enable long- term hematopoietic engraftment
- No treatment with another investigational drug within one month before inclusion
- Patient affiliated to social security
- Written, informed consent of the patient
- Absence of Donor Specific Antibodies (DSA) with a MFI > 5000
Exclusion Criteria:

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This is an open-labelled and non-controlled Phase I/II clinical trial, evaluating the safety and the efficacy of Human T Lymphoid Progenitor (HTLP) injection to accelerate immune reconstitution after umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation in adult patients with hematologic malignancies. The dose limiting toxicity of HTLP injection will be evaluated using a model-based design.
Detailed Description
Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (AlloSCT) is the treatment of choice for high- risk acute myeloid leukemias in complete first remission after induction therapy and other high-risk hematological malignancies. Umbilical cord blood grafts are frequently used for patients lacking an HLA- matched family donor (Matched-sibling donor, MSD) as well as in the absence of an appropriate unrelated donor (10/10 MUD). As any HSCT, UCB transplantations are associated with the risk of acute and chronic GVHD, post- transplant immunodeficiency with increased risk of infections as well as relapse. Especially the risk of infection and therefore non- relapse mortality (NRM) or transplant- related mortality (TRM) is significantly higher in UCB transplantations as compared to MSD or 10/10 MUD transplantations. All of these risks have been linked to a significant delay in immune reconstitution including various immune cell populations like CD4 and CD8 T cells, Treg, NK, iNKT, pDC and others.
The investigators therefore make the hypothesis that if T-cell-mediated immunity was rapidly generated after a partially HLA-compatible UCB transplantation will reduce the risk of infection and to prevent relapse without increasing the risk of GVHD.
