About this study

Official title: Phase 1, Open Label Study of CRISPR-CAR Genome Edited T Cells (PBLTT52CAR19) in Relapsed /Refractory B Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

PBLTT52CAR19 modified T cells are allogenic engineered human T cells (defined as TT52CAR19 +TCRαβ-) prepared for the treatment of CD19+ B cell leukaemia. The cells are from healthy adult volunteer donors and are not HLA-matched. They have been transduced to express and anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR19) using a lentiviral vector that also incorporates CRISPR guides for genome editing of CD52 and TRAC loci in the presence of transiently provided Cas9.

Recognition by TT52CAR19 T cells mediates eradication of CD19+ leukaemia and other CD19+ B cells through T cell mediated cytotoxicity.

This study aims to apply PBLTT52CAR19 T cells to secure molecular remission in children with relapsed/refractory B-ALL ahead of programmed allogeneic stem cell transplantation. The cells are to be used in a time-limited manner for their anti-leukaemia effects and then depleted by standard pre- transplant conditioning.

Standard of careOtherFollow-up period: For patients achieving molecular remission by day 28, allo-HSCT will be scheduled as soon as practicable. Routine transplant care for 24 months will incorporate the disease monitoring and recording of adverse events of special interest and document elimination of PBLTT52CAR19 through the transplant conditioning period. For patients with refractory disease at Day 56, the monitoring of adverse events of special interest, the disease outcome will be monitored monthly up to 24 months or until a palliative therapy approach is adopted. Assessments will be carried out after the treatment period at the following time points: 1m, 2m, 3m, 6m, and 12m, 24m * Physical examination, ECOG * Laboratory tests * Vital signs (temperature, BP, HR, respiratory rate, weight) * Persistence of PBLTT52CAR19, VCN by qPCR in blood and bone marrow (if sampled) * Chimerism and MRD in blood and bone marrow (if sampled) * Adverse events * Concomitant treatments

What is being measured

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

  1. B-ALL remission

    The main benefit expected from PBLTT52CAR19 for anti-CD19 activity leading to anti-leukemic effect and induction of remission in children with refractory/relapsed B-ALL. Patients who achieve molecular remission will become eligible to receive an allo-HSCT that would otherwise be considered futile.Remission of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL) in anticipation of a haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT that would otherwise be considered futile.

    Measured: 28 days

Model description
This is an open label, single-centre, phase I, cohort study using genome edited T cells to bring patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL) into remission in anticipation of a haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) that will hopefully prevent the leukaemia from returning. It involves a single infusion of allogenic T cells transduced with a self-inactivating (SIN) lentiviral vector in up to 10 subjects aged from 6 months to 18 years. The primary objective in this study is to test the safety and secondary objective will test the efficacy of this gene therapy procedure in this population. Patients will be enrolled following diagnosis and referral to GOSH, and will receive TT52CAR19 cells at GOSH after lymphodepleting conditioning. They will be followed on this protocol for 12 months post IMP infusion.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PBLTT52CAR19 in people with B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, run by Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 5 inclusion and 18 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Mar 2024. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

B-ALL remission (time frame: 28 days). 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 NCT04557436, 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 7 Mar 2024.
