Trial summary

Pancreatic cancer patients receive chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells against mesothelin (CARTmeso) or CD19 (CART19) cells administered at 3 days via pancreatic artery infusion or i.v. after preconditioning of cyclophosphamide. Both CART cells are autologous. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pilot Study of Autologous Chimeric Antigen Receptor Cells Against Mesothelin and CD19 in Patients With Pancreatic Cancer

Pancreatic cancer patients receive chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells against mesothelin (CARTmeso) or CD19 (CART19) cells administered at 3 days via pancreatic artery infusion or i.v. after preconditioning of cyclophosphamide. Both CART cells are autologous. CARTmeso cells target pancreatic cells which highly express mesothelin, while CART19 cells target tumor-associated B cells expressing cluster of differentiation antigen 19 (CD19) which are mostly immunosuppressive. The investigators hypothesize that this combination therapy may enhance the efficacy of CARTmeso cells in the body. Additionally, a medium dose of cyclophosphamide is used to enhance the engraftment of CART cells.

Read the detailed description

This is a single arm, open-label, pilot study to determine the safety and feasibility of combination CARTmeso cells and CART19 cells in patients with pancreatic cancer following lymphodepletion with cyclophosphamide. Both cells contain CAR proteins consisting of a murine-derived single chain antibody fragment (scFv), cluster of differentiation antigen 137 (41BB) co-stimulatory domain and cluster of differentiation antigen 3 zeta chain (CD3ζ) signaling domain transduced by lentivirus

What is being measured

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

  1. The Percentage of Adverse Events (AEs) ≥ grade 3 assessed through MedDra and CTCAE v4.03 [Time frame: from infusion to 3 month afterward]

    Primary outcome is the percentage of adverse events (AEs) ≥ grade 3. AEs are assessed through MedDra and CTCAE v4.03. Any patients who receive any dose of CART cells will be evaluated

    Measured: From first infusion to 3 months afterward

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall Response Rate defined as any improvement measured by imaging following RECIST 1.1 [Time Frame: Day 14 and 1 month after infusion]

    Secondary outcome is overall response rate. A response is defined as any improvement measured by imaging following RECIST 1.1. Only patients who receive infusions per protocol will be evaluated.

    Measured: Day 14 and 1 month after infusion, or until patient withdraw consent or receive new therapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing CARTmeso CART19 in people with Pancreatic Cancer, run by First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University 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 6 inclusion and 7 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 13 Apr 2018. 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 phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The Percentage of Adverse Events (AEs) ≥ grade 3 assessed through MedDra and CTCAE v4.03 [Time frame: from infusion to 3 month afterward] (time frame: From first infusion to 3 months afterward). 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 13 Apr 2018.
