CMV ViremiaPhase 1/2NCT04018261
Virus-specific Activated T Lymphocytes From a Donor in Hematopoietic Progenitor Transplanted Patients
A Phase 1/2 study testing Activated T-Lymphocytes in people with CMV Viremia and Immunosuppression-related Infectious Disease, run by Banc de Sang i Teixits at 7 sites in Spain.
Trial summary
Marrow transplanted immunocompromised patients with cytomegalovirus (CMV) viral infection will be treated with CMV activated T-Lymphocytes. T-Lymphocytes will be obtained through an apheresis from a compatible donor. Read more about this study

- Ages 1 year and older
- All sexes
- No healthy volunteers
- Child, Adult, Older adult
Who may be able to join
- Recipient of an allogeneic hematopoietic progenitors cell transplant (irrespectively of the donor source, donor type conditioning and underlying disease) that is beyond the day +30 of the procedure
- Patient with post-transplant infection due to CMV refractory or resistant to optimal pharmacological treatment. Specifically, the patient must be included in any of the following cases
- Patient with organic disease caused by CMV (confirmed by histology) resistant to antiviral first line treatment
- Patient with CMV reactivation and no organic disease, resistant or intolerant to 2 previous antiviral treatment lines (ganciclovir/valganciclovir and foscarnet) or not candidate to be treated due to not acceptable expected toxicity (severe renal insufficiency, neutropenia or severe thrombopenia) It is agreed that the patient is affected with a resistant CMV infection if the CMV copies doesn't decrease in > 1 log in total blood or otherwise the absolute number of copies > 1x10E4/mL in total blood after 2 weeks of antiviral treatment.
- Patients with reactivation of recurrent CMV despite correct anti-CMV treatment. It will be considered a recurrent CMV infection if the patient has > 2 reactivations in a period <6 months despite having received correct anti-CMV treatment
- Documented genetic mutations associated with ganciclovir or foscarnet resistance

About this study
Official title: A Prospective Multicenter Open-label, Not Controlled Phase Ib-II Clinical Trial to Assess the Safety and Immunologic Efficacy of Virus-specific T Lymphocytes From the Best Donor in Receptors of Hematopoietic Progenitor Allogeneic Transplant
Marrow transplanted immunocompromised patients with cytomegalovirus (CMV) viral infection will be treated with CMV activated T-Lymphocytes. T-Lymphocytes will be obtained through an apheresis from a compatible donor.
Safety and immunoreconstitution parameters in blood samples will be assessed up to +60 days after the treatment.
Read the detailed description
A prospective, multicentre, open-label and uncontrolled phase Ib-II clinical trial in which a total of 20 patients ≥ 1 year of age with an allogeneic transplant of hematopoietic progenitors and post-transplant CMV infection will be included. The main objective is to evaluate the safety of the infusion of CMV activated T-lymphocytes and secondary objectives are to evaluate the efficacy through clinical evolution, viral load, ability to induce immunoreconstitution against the virus and evaluation of the persistence of specific T cells.
The treatment will be administered intravenously (central or peripheral route) in a single dose at a dose of 0.01-5 E4 specific virus T lymphocytes per Kg of receptor weight. After the infusion, patients will follow periodic controls (+7, +14, +21, +28, +45 and +60 days) in which a clinical evaluation will be performed and blood samples will be obtained in order to evaluate the persistence of specific T cells in the recipient:
