About this study

Official title: Clinical Investigation of Chimeric CD(Cluster of Differentiation)33 Antigen Receptor-modified NK92 Cells in Relapsed and/or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemias

The purpose of this clinical trial is to study genetically engineered NK92 cell therapy in treating patients with CD33 positive acute myeloid leukemias that is relapsed (after stem cell transplantation or intensive chemotherapy) or refractory to further chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

Determine the safety and feasibility of the chimeric antigen receptor NK92 cells transduced with the anti-CD33 vector (referred to as anti-CD33 CAR-NK cells).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. For patients with detectable disease, measure anti-leukemia response due to anti-CD33 CAR-NK cell infusions.

II. For patients with stored or accessible leukemia blasts, determine leukemia cell killing by anti-CD33 CAR-NK in vitro.

III. Determine if cellular or humoral host immunity develops against the murine anti-CD33.

OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 group according to order of enrollment.

Patients receive anti-CD33 CAR-NK (coupled with CD28, CD137 and CD3 zeta signalling domains) vector-transduced NK92 cell line on days 0,3, and 5 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed intensively for 6 months, every 3 months for 2 years, and annually thereafter for 10 years.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • anti-CD33 CAR-NK cellsBiological

    Also called Chimeric antigen receptor NK92 cells with specificity for CD33

    The allogeneic NK cells (NK-92 cell line for clinical use) are engineered to contain anti-CD33 attached to TCRzeta, CD28 and 4-1BB signaling domains. These modified cells are called chimeric antigen receptor NK cells with specificity for CD33.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing anti-CD33 CAR-NK cells in people with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia and Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by PersonGen BioTherapeutics (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.

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 10 inclusion and 8 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 6 Dec 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in 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 Lin Yang, Ph.D (86-512-65922190, info@persongen.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Adverse events attributed to the administration of the anti-CD33 CAR-NK cells (time frame: One year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02944162, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 6 Dec 2016.
