Sequential CAR-T Cells Therapy for CD5/CD7 Positive T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and Lymphoblastic Lymphoma Using CD5/CD7-Specific CAR-T Cells (BAH246)

November 10, 2024 updated by: Essen Biotech

This is an Open, Single-arm, Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Anti-CD7/CD5 CAR-T Cells in the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (T-ALL), ETP-ALL, and Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (TLBL).

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T cells targeted against CD19 have demonstrated unprecedented successes in treating patients with hematopoietic and lymphoid malignancies. Besides CD19, many other molecules such as CD22, CD30,BCMA,CD123, etc. may be the potential to develop the corresponding CAR-T cells to treat patients whose tumors express those markers. In this study, investigators will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Sequential CAR-T Cells Targeting CD5/CD7 in patients with patients with relapsed or refractory T-ALL/LBL/ETP-ALL. The primary goal is safety assessment including cytokine storm response and any other adverse effects. In addition, disease status after treatment will also be evaluated.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Acute lymphoblast leukemia (T-ALL) is a neoplastic lymphoid leukemia characterized by the proliferation of immature precursor T cells. The combined chemotherapy has significantly improved the prognosis of T-acute lymphoblast leukemia/lymphoma. However, once the disease appears to be relapsed/refractory, there are limited treatment options, and the overall prognosis is extremely poor. Therefore, exploring safe and effective treatments is a critical unmet medical need. The patients will receive Sequential CAR-T Cells Targeting CD5/CD7 to examine the safety and, possibly the efficacy of CD5 CAR T-Cells in CD5+ CD7+ relapsed or refractory acute leukemia.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Sequential CAR-T Cells Targeting (CD5/CD7 CAR T cells, chemotherapy)
Patients will be administered fludarabine phosphate intravenously (IV) over a 30-minute period on days -4 to -2. Additionally, cyclophosphamide will be administered intravenously (IV) over 60 minutes on day -2. Subsequently, patients will receive CD5/CD7 CAR T cells intravenously (IV) over a duration of 10-20 minutes on day 0. Patients who exhibit positive responses to the initial dose of CD5/CD7 CAR T cells, do not experience unacceptable side effects, and have a sufficient quantity of cells available may be eligible to receive 2 or 3 additional doses of CD5/CD7 CAR T cells.

The intervention in this clinical trial involves a novel approach using CD5/CD7 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T (CAR T) cells combined with chemotherapy. The goal is to assess safety and efficacy in patients with specific hematologic malignancies.

Treatment Regimen:

Patients in the trial will undergo the following regimen:

Fludarabine Phosphate (Days -4 to -2): IV administration of fludarabine phosphate over 30 minutes on days -4 to -2. It's part of the preparatory regimen to enhance the body's response to CAR T-cell therapy.

Cyclophosphamide (Day -2): IV cyclophosphamide over 60 minutes on day -2.

CD5/CD7 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells (Day 0): IV administration of investigational therapy, CD5/CD7 CAR T cells, over 10-20 minutes on day 0.

Additional Doses: Eligible patients responding well to the initial CD5/CD7 CAR-T cell infusion without unacceptable side effects and sufficient CAR-T cell availability may receive 2 or 3 additional doses.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The number and incidence of adverse events after CD7/CD5 CAR infusion.
Time Frame: 28 days
Evaluation of all possible adverse reactions, including the number, incidence, and severity of symptoms such as cytokine release syndromes and neurotoxicity within 3 months after CAR-T infusion
28 days
Disease response to CD7/CD5 CAR T cells
