Phase I Study of Cellular Immunotherapy Using Central Memory-Enriched T Cells Lentivirally Transduced to Express a CD19-Specific, CD28-Costimulatory Chimeric Receptor and a Truncated EGFR Following Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation for Patients With High-Risk Intermediate Grade B-Lineage Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the safety and describe the full toxicity profile of cellular immunotherapy
initializing ex vivo expanded autologous Tcm-enriched T cells that are genetically modified
using a self-activating (SIN) lentiviral vector to express a costimulatory cluster of
differentiation (CD)19-specific chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) as well as a truncated
human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) (CD19R:CD28 zeta/EGFR tau +Tcm)
(CD19-CAR-specific/truncated EGFR lentiviral vector-transduced autologous T cells) in
conjunction with a standard myeloablative autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant
(HSCT) for patients with high-risk intermediate grade B-lineage non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
II. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) based on dose limiting toxicities (DLTs).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the tempo, magnitude, and duration of engraftment of the transferred T cell
product as it relates to the number of cells infused.
II. To study the impact of this therapeutic intervention on the development of normal CD19+
B-cell precursors in the bone marrow as a surrogate for the in vivo effector function of
transferred autologous CD19R:CD28 zeta/EGFR tau +Tcm.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of CD19-CAR-specific/truncated EGFR lentiviral
vector-transduced autologous T cells.
Patients undergo mobilization for autologous stem cell collection with cytoreductive
chemotherapy and filgrastim and/or plerixafor per current standard operating policies. If
rituximab is not given as part of the salvage/priming chemotherapy regimen, patients receive
rituximab intravenously (IV) per standard practice within 4 weeks of the transplant.
Patients undergo myeloablative conditioning regimen per institutional standards beginning
day -7 followed by hematopoietic stem cell transplantation on day 0. Patients receive
CD19-CAR-specific/truncated EGFR lentiviral vector-transduced autologous T cells IV on day 2
or 3 (may be delayed up to day 45 if the patient is not yet eligible).
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up weekly for 1 month, monthly
for 1 year, and then yearly for 15 years.
