September 3, 2019 updated by: Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University
This is a single arm, open-label, phase 1 study, to determine the safety and efficacy of anti-CD123 CAR-T cells in treating patients diagnosed with refractory/relapsed acute leukemia in a dose-escalation way.

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Terminated

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

This is a dose-escalation study of autologous anti-CD123 CAR-T cells. Patients receive fludarabine phosphate(300 mg/m^2) and cyclophosphamide (30 mg/m^2) IV on days -5 to -3, and then Patients receive autologous anti-CD123 CAR T cells IV over 20 minutes on day 0 (20% of total dose), day2 (30% of total dose) and day6 (50% of total dose, according to the side-effects occured). The total dose of CAR-T cells used in dose-escalation study is 0.5x10^6- 2.0x10^6 CAR-T cells/kg.

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.
