About this study
Official title: Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory B-cell Malignancies by Humanized CD19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR)-Modified T Cells
This is a single arm, open-label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of humanized anti-CD19 CAR-T cells in patients with relapsed or refractory B cell Malignancies.
Read the detailed description
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T cells (CAR-T cells) have the capabilities to recognize tumor associated antigen and kill tumor cells specifically. CAR-T therapy showed great effect on patients with relapsed or refractory B cell malignancies. To improve the efficacy and safety, the researchers designed a second-generation humanized CAR, consisting of humanized CD19 single chain variable fragment (scFv) and CD137 costimulatory domain. This study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of humanized anti-CD19 CAR-T cells in patients with relapsed or refractory B cell Malignancies.
- Conditions
- Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, B Cell Lymphoma
- Being tested
- Second generation humanized CAR-T cells
- Medical subject headings
- Precursor Cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia-Lymphoma, Lymphoma, B-Cell

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Second generation humanized CAR-T cells in people with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and B Cell Lymphoma, run by Wuhan Sian Medical Technology 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 9 inclusion and 12 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 7 Aug 2019. 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?
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.
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 Yu Hu, M.D., Ph.D (86-13986183871, dr_huyu@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Number of participants with adverse events (time frame: 5 years). 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 NCT04008251, which also lists 2 linked publications.
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 7 Aug 2019.
