Safety and Efficiency of γδ T Cell Against Hematological Malignancies After Allo-HSCT

March 24, 2022 updated by: Han weidong, Chinese PLA General Hospital

Safety and Efficiency of γδ T Cell Against Hematological Malignancies After Allo-HSCT. A Dose Escalation, Open-label, Phase 1/2 Study.

This study investigates the infusion safety and potential curative properties of ex-vivo expanded γδ T cells obtained from the same donor for patients who have hematological malignancies and have accepted allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a single-center, open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ex-vivo expanded γδ T cell in patients with hematological malignancies after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. γδ T cell will be separated from peripheral blood of the same donors. After expansion in vitro, they will be infused to the patients as an immunotherapy treatment.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: TREATMENT
  • Allocation: NA
  • Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP
  • Masking: NONE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: Patients with hematological malignancies after allo-HSCT
  1. Patients with negative minimal residual disease or stable disease:

    After inclusion, patients will receive or not receive chemotherapy. Subsequently, patients will be dosed with γδ T cell.

  2. Patients with positive minimal residual disease but not hematologic relapse:

    After inclusion, patients will receive chemotherapy. Subsequently, patients will be dosed with γδ T cell.

  3. Patients with hematologic relapse:

After inclusion, patients will receive chemotherapy. Subsequently, patients will be dosed with γδ T cell.

Phase 1: Patients receive ex-vivo expanded γδ T cell (Dose escalation, 3 cohorts, x5 dose increments between cohorts, 2×10^6、 1×10^7 and 5×10^7 of cells per kg of body weight).

Phase 2: Patients receive ex-vivo expanded γδ T cell at the maximum tolerated dose determined in Phase 1.

Other Names:
  • Chemotherapy
