Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Fludarabine + Cyclophosphamide + anti-CD7 CAR-T Cells

Arm Description

Patients will received lymphodepletion with fludarabine (30 mg/kg) and cyclophosphamide (250 mg/kg) on day -5, -4, and -3, followed by the infusion of CAR7-T cells with the dose of 1×10^6/kg and 2×10^6/kg (with an allowance of ±20%). If no dose-limited toxicity (DLT) emerges in the group, then the subsequent higher dose will be used in the next group. 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.

Outcomes

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a single-center, open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the primary safety and efficacy of anti-CD7 chimeric antigen receptor(CAR)-modified T cells(CAR7-Ts) in patients with relapsed or refractory T lymphoid malignancies.
Detailed Description
Chimeric antigen receptor-T cells (CAR-T) have made breakthroughs in the treatment of B-cell tumors, especially refractory/relapsed acute B lymphocytes. CD7 is a transmembrane glycoprotein expressed by T cells and natural killer cells and their precursors; it is also expressed in >95% of lymphoblastic T-cell leukemias and lymphomas . CD7 was previously evaluated as a target for immunotoxin-loaded antibodies in patients with T-cell malignancies, but tumor responses were limited. Enhancing the potency of CD7-directed cytotoxicity by substituting donor-derived CAR-T cells for a monoclonal antibody would augment the efficacy of CD7-targeted therapy in patients with T-cell malignancies. To prepare CAR7-T cells, CD7 expression is suppressed on donor-derived T cells by unique blocking technique, and CD7-negative T cells are transduced with a humanized anti-CD7-41BB-CD3ζ lentiviral vector. This is an investigational study. The objectives are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CAR7-T cells in patients with CD7+ T-cell malignancies.
