Phase 1/2 Study of UCART22 in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory CD22+ B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (BALLI-01)

September 8, 2025 updated by: Cellectis S.A.

Open Label Dose-escalation and Dose-expansion Study to Evaluate the Safety, Expansion, Persistence and Clinical Activity of UCART22 (Allogeneic Engineered T-cells Expressing Anti-CD22 Chimeric Antigen Receptor) in Patients With Relapsed or refractoryCD22+ B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL)

This is a first-in-human, open-label, dose escalation and expansion study of UCART22 administered intravenously to patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of UCART22 and determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D)
