Infusion of Donor Lymphocytes Depleted of CD25+ Regulatory T-cells in Patients With Relapsed Hematologic Malignancies

September 28, 2016 updated by: John Koreth, MD, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

Infusion of Donor Lymphocytes Depleted of CD25+ Regulatory T-cells in Patients With Relapsed Hematologic Malignancies After Matched Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of cell depletion in a donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) product with the use of the CliniMACS machine. Previously, patients with hematologic malignancies who have relapsed after transplant have been given infusions of donor white blood cells calsed donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) as a way to boost their immune function and fight cancer. Information from other research studies suggests that lowering the number of a certain type of white blood cell called CD25+ Tregs in the DLI may allow for a greater effect. In this research study, we are looking for the appropriate dose of DLI depleted of the CD25+ Treg white blood cells that can be given safely.

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

  • The original marrow/stem cell donor will undergo one or two white blood cell collection procedures called leukopheresis. The cells collected from the first leukopheresis will be sent to the laboratory where the amount of white blood cells collected will be measured. If the number of cells collected at the first leukopheresis is not enough, the donor will have a second leukopheresis procedure.
  • Once enough lymphocytes are collected from the donor, the CliniMACS CD25 Reagent System device will reduce the number of CD25+ Tregs. The CD25+ depleted donor lymphocytes will then be infused to the participant intravenously. Participants will be observed for about one hour after the infusion.
  • One, two, four and eight weeks after the DLI, participants will return to the clinic for follow-up visits. At each visit a physical exam, questions about the participants general health, and blood tests will be performed.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

EXPERIMENTAL: CD25+ Treg depleted DLI dose schema

Patients will receive a defined dose of CD25+ Treg depleted DLI. 5 patients will be enrolled, initially at dose level B, and subsequent cohorts will be dose adjusted per the CD3+ dose escalation/de-escalation schema:

  • Dose level -C: 3x10^7 (CD3+Dose (#cells/kg*))
  • Dose level -B: 1x10^7 (CD3+Dose (#cells/kg*))
  • Dose level -A: 1x10^6 (CD3+Dose (#cells/kg*)) *Recipient's body weight in Kg
Device: CliniMACS CD25 Reagent Device
Used to engineer CD25+ depleted donor lymphocytes which will be infused intravenously over 5-10 minutes
