UTAA09 Injection in the Treatment of Relapsed/Refractory Hematolymphatic Malignancies.

Clinical Study of Universal Off-the-shelf Cell Products in Patients With CD19-positive Relapsed/Refractory B-cell Hematolymphatic Malignancies.

This study is designed for exploring the preliminary safety and efficacy of the recombinant allogeneic healthy γδT cells transduced with the anti-CD19 lentiviral vector in patients with CD19-positive B cell hematolymphatic malignancies.

Study Overview

• Status: Recruiting
• Conditions: CD19-positive Relapsed or Refractory B-cell Malignancies
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Fludarabine; Biological: UTAA09 cells for infusion; Drug: Cyclophosphamide

Detailed Description

A single arm open-label clinical study is designed to prelinarily determine the safety, efficacy, the ratio of CD19-positive cells in peripheral blood and cell kinetics after administration of UTAA09 injection in patients with CD19-positive relapsed/refractory B-cell hematolymphatic malignancies. All subjects will receive UTAA09 cells infusion.

Primary objective: explore the preliminary safety and efficacy of UTAA09 injection in patients with CD19-positive relapsed/refractory B-cell line hematolymphatic malignancies.

Secondary objectives:

1. explore the distribution, amplification and survival of UTAA09 cells in vivo after administration of UTAA09 injection;
2. explore the ratio of CD19-positive cells in peripheral blood after administration of UTAA09 injection.
