About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy Evaluation of 4th Generation Safety-engineered CAR T Cells Targeting Relapsed and Refractory CD30 Positive Lymphomas

Currently, a majority of lymphomas cannot be cured by standard chemo-radiotherapy. Cluster of differentiation antigen 30 (CD30) is expressed in many lymphoma subtypes, such as Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). CD30 represents a very attractive target for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-based immune cell therapy. This study will evaluate a novel 4th generation CD30 CAR engineered with a self-withdrawal mechanism (FKBP-iCasp9) for both efficacy and safety evaluation in lymphoma patients.

Read the detailed description

A large number of lymphoma patients exhaust current treatment options and die from the disease. Innovative therapy is urgently needed. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T cells have demonstrated unprecedented successes in treating even late stage cluster of differentiation antigen 19 (CD19) positive B cell malignancies. Besides CD19 lymphomas, many lymphomas are CD30 positive and therefore, CD30-CAR T cells may prove to be effective in treating such patients. We have developed several generations of CD30 CARs. Preclinical studies have demonstrated effective killing of CD30 target cells. In this study, two versions of CD30 CARs, both of which are 4th generation CARs with a self-withdrawal mechanism (FKBP-iCasp9), will be evaluated in CD30 lymphoma patients. The primary goal is safety assessment including cytokine storm response and any other adverse effects. In addition, tumor targeting and disease status after treatment will also be evaluated.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of patients with adverse events.

    Determine the toxicity profile of the 4th generation CAR T cells with Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Effects (CTCAE) version 4.0.

    Measured: 2 years.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Survival time of Anti-CD30 CAR T cells in vivo.

    Measure the survival of 4th generation CAR T cells transduced with the anti-CD30 lentiviral vector.

    Measured: 2 years.

  2. Response rates to the 4th generation CAR T cells.

    Describe the response rates of patients treated with 4th generation CAR T cells, including partial remission (PR), complete remission (CR), stable disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD).

    Measured: 2 years.

  3. Survival time of the patients.

    Evaluate the survival time of the patients treated with the 4th generation CAR T cells, including progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).

    Measured: 2 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Anti-CD30 CAR T cells in people with Lymphomas, run by Peking University at 2 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States, China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jun Zhu, MD (+861088196596, zj@bjcancer.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of patients with adverse events. (time frame: 2 years.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Oct 2014.
