Active clinical trials for "Precursor Cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia-Lymphoma"

This study has two phases, Phase I and Phase II. The main goal of the Phase I portion of this research study is to see what doses post-transplant inotuzumab ozogamicin can safely be given to subjects without having too many side effects. The Phase II portion of this study is to see what side effects are seen with medication after transplant. Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a combination of an antibody and chemotherapy which has been shown to have significant activity against relapsed/refractory acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL). Inotuzumab ozogamicin is considered experimental in this study.

This phase II trial studies how well blinatumomab, inotuzumab ozogamicin, and combination chemotherapy work as frontline therapy in treating patients with B acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as blinatumomab, may induce changes in the body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody, called inotuzumab, linked to a toxic agent called ozogamicin. Inotuzumab attaches to CD22 positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers ozogamicin to kill them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, dexamethasone, cytarabine, mercaptopurine, methotrexate, and prednisone work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving blinatumomab, inotuzumab ozogamicin, and combination chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with B acute lymphoblastic leukemia than chemotherapy alone.

Patients eligible for this study have a type of blood cancer called T-cell leukemia or lymphoma (lymph gland cancer). The body has different ways of fighting infection and disease. No one way seems perfect for fighting cancers. This research study combines two different ways of fighting disease, antibodies and T cells, hoping that they will work together. Antibodies are types of proteins that protect the body from bacterial and other diseases. T cells, also called T lymphocytes, are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill other cells including tumor cells. Both antibodies and T cells have been used to treat patients with cancers; they have shown promise, but have not been strong enough to cure most patients. T lymphocytes can kill tumor cells but there normally are not enough of them to kill all the tumor cells. Some researchers have taken T cells from a person's blood, grown more of them in the laboratory and then given them back to the person. In some patients who have recently had a bone marrow or stem cell transplant, the number of T cells in their blood may not be enough to grow in the laboratory. In this situation, T cells may be collected from their previous transplant donor, who has a similar tissue type. The antibody used in this study is called anti-CD5. It first came from mice that have developed immunity to human leukemia. This antibody sticks to T-cell leukemia or lymphoma cells because of a substance on the outside of these cells called CD5. CD5 antibodies have been used to treat people with T-cell leukemia and lymphoma. For this study, anti-CD5 has been changed so that instead of floating free in the blood it is now joined to the T cells. When an antibody is joined to a T cell in this way it is called a chimeric receptor. In the laboratory, the investigators have also found that T cells work better if proteins that stimulate T cells are also added, such as one called CD28. Adding the CD28 makes the cells grow better and last longer in the body, thus giving the cells a better chance of killing the leukemia or lymphoma cells. In this study investigators are going to attach the CD5 chimeric receptor with CD28 added to it to the patient's T cells or the previous bone marrow transplant donor's T cells. The investigators will then test how long the cells last. The decision to use the bone marrow transplant donor's T cells instead of the patient's will be based on 1) whether there is an available and willing donor and 2) the likelihood of the patient's T cells being able to grow in the lab. These CD5 chimeric receptor T cells with CD28 are investigational products not approved by the Food and Drug Administration.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to assess the feasibility, safety and efficacy of CAR T cell therapy against CD7-positive hematological malignancies using CD7 specific CAR T cells. The study also aims to learn more about the function of CD7 CAR T cells and their persistence in patients of hematological malignancies.

Primary objectives: Randomization R1, all patients eligible: To examine, whether the cumulative incidence of relapses with involvement of the CNS (CNS relapse, pCICR) can be decreased by a modified induction therapy including dexamethasone (experimental arm) instead of prednisone (standard arm) Randomization R2, only patients with high risk LBL eligible: to examine, whether the probability of event-free survival (pEFS) in these patients can be improved by receiving an intensified treatment arm versus a standard treatment arm (as used in the EURO-LB 02)

This phase 1 study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a CAR-T cell therapy directed against two B cell antigens (CD19 CD20) and produced under good manufacturing practice (GMP) conditions using the closed system CliniMACS Prodigy device in B ALL.

This is Phase II / III, Prospective, single arm, Open Label Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Intravenous Autologous CD19 CAR-T Cells for Relapsed / Refractory B-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of CD19/CD22 Bispecific CAR-T for the treatment of MRD-positive B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Patients will be given a conditioning chemotherapy regimen of fludarabine and cyclophosphamide followed by a single infusion of CD19/CD22 CAR+ T cells.

This phase I/II trial studies how well cytokine-treated veto cells work in treating patients with hematologic malignancies following stem cell transplant. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Cytokine-treated veto cells may help the transplanted donor cells to develop and grow in recipients without causing graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD - when transplanted donor tissue attacks the tissues of the recipient's body).
