Trial summary

The primary purpose of this IRB protocol is to perform immune profiling focusing on the measurement of Myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) over time in patients receiving Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T therapy and determine the correlation between immune profile and disease relapse/resistance in CAR T therapy.

About this study

Official title: Mechanisms of Disease Relapse/Resistance in CAR T Therapy for Hematologic Malignancies

The primary purpose of this IRB protocol is to perform immune profiling focusing on the measurement of Myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) over time in patients receiving Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T therapy and determine the correlation between immune profile and disease relapse/resistance in CAR T therapy.

Read the detailed description

The primary purpose of this IRB protocol is to perform immune profiling focusing on the measurement of MDSCs over time in patients receiving CAR T therapy and determine the correlation between immune profile and disease relapse/resistance in CAR T therapy. Blood samples and accompanying health information (including PHI) may be collected from standard of care, non-significant risk, research-only procedures or obtained from our Division Research Repository and Database (Duke IRB Pro00006268) or DUHS Biospecimen Research and Biobanking protocol (Duke IRB Pro00035974). All hematologic malignancy patients treated with commercial CAR T products will be screened and enrolled for the study.

The investigators will perform multivariable regression to see if the number and function of MDSCs can be used as independent factors to predict disease relapse at 1 year after CAR T treatment, overall survival or progression-free survival. The studies will not require additional invasive procedure solely for the study.

The investigators will use blood samples that are performed as part of standard care. Therefore, no additional procedure is needed. The major potential risk associated with the study is the breach of confidentiality.

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation between change in immune profile and disease relapse/resistance in CAR T therapy

    multivariable regression

    Measured: before CAR T therapy, 1 week after CAR T and then every 3-6 months, and at the time of disease relapse (up to 5 years)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Correlation between change in molecular/genetic analysis and disease relapse/resistance in CAR T therapy

    bulk RNA-sequencing, single cell RNA sequencing, single cell ATAC seq or metabolomics on peripheral blood samples

    Measured: before CAR T therapy, 1 week after CAR T and then every 3-6 months, and at the time of disease relapse (up to 5 years)

  2. Correlation between changes in cytokine and molecular pathway profiling with disease relapse/resistance in CAR T therapy

    Cytokine profiling and molecular/genetic correlation with disease relapse/resistance in CAR T therapy

    Measured: before CAR T therapy, 1 week after CAR T and then every 3-6 months, and at the time of disease relapse (up to 5 years)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hematologic Malignancy, run by Duke 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 3 inclusion and 1 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 1 Jul 2026. 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.

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?

Correlation between change in immune profile and disease relapse/resistance in CAR T therapy (time frame: before CAR T therapy, 1 week after CAR T and then every 3-6 months, and at the time of disease relapse (up to 5 years)). 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 1 Jul 2026.
