November 14, 2019 updated by: Shanghai Longyao Biotechnology Inc., Ltd.
This is a single arm, open-label, single center, exploratory clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CD19 UCAR-T Cells in Patients With CD19+ B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL).

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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 study did not set up a control group. The maximum dose was determined according to the dose escalation test. Based on the number of CART cells per kg body weight which was proved to be safe and effective, all the subjects were treated with one single dose of CD19 UCART cells per treatment course. The dose escalation test was designed to evaluate the three dose levels of CD19 UCART (1 × 10 ^ 6 cells/kg,3 × 10 ^ 6 cells/kg,5 × 10 ^ 6 cells/kg). Each CD19 UCART infusion will be carried out on day 0. Each subject was observed for at least 4 weeks after the last infusion. If there was no dose-limited toxicity (DLT), it is necessary to continue multiple treatment courses at this dose level. The detailed administration time and dose were decided by the researchers.

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.

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.
