About this study

Official title: Pilot Study of [18F]F-AraG PET Imaging to Evaluate Immunological Response to Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T Cell Therapy in Lymphoma

This is a pilot study in adult subjects with aggressive B-cell lymphoma who will receive commercial or research CAR T cell therapy as anticancer treatment.

Read the detailed description

Primary Objectives:

  • Explore the relationship of change in [18F]F-AraG PET signal following CAR T cell treatment with changes in T cell infiltration in tumor biopsies.

Exploratory Analyses:

  • Explore the relationship of change in [18F]F-AraG PET signal in tumor lesions following CAR T cell treatment with clinical benefit rate (defined as Complete Response (CR) + Partial Response (PR) + stable disease (SD) ≥ 3 months) using RECISTv1.1 criteria
  • Correlate the change in [18F]F-AraG PET signal in tumor lesions following CAR T cell therapy with maximum grade of Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity experienced.

What participants receive

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

  • [ 18F]F-AraG PETDrug

    Also called [ 18F]F-AraG (2'-deoxy-2'-fluoro-9-β-D- arabinofuranosylguanine; trade name VisAcT)

    Dose: 5 mCi (±10%) Mode of Administration: Intravenous (IV)

Study groups in NCT05096234
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
[18F]F-AraG PETExperimentalSubjects will undergo PET imaging at the following time points: * Baseline, prior to lymphodepleting chemotherapy: [18F]F-AraGPET/CT, followed the next day by FDG-PET/CT * At peak CAR expansion: Day 4 (± 2 days) post-CAR infusion: [18F]F-AraG PET * At Day +28 (± 4 days) post-CAR infusion: FDG-PET/CT Subjects will have a paired biopsy after each imaging time point, if possible. Subjects will be followed for safety of [18F]F-AraG for 30 days after last dose
Receives: Drug: [ 18F]F-AraG PET

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary outcome measure

    Spearman correlation between changes in SUV in [18F]F-AraG signal on PET imaging to changes in T-cell infiltrates in biopsy samples

    Measured: values obtained on Day 0 and Day 4 (± 2 days)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing [ 18F]F-AraG PET in people with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, run by Stanford University at 1 site in United States.

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 15 inclusion and 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Feb 2025. 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 States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: loss of sponsor support). 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?

Primary outcome measure (time frame: values obtained on Day 0 and Day 4 (± 2 days)). 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 6 Feb 2025.
