About this study

Official title: Phase I/II Study of CD70 Targeted CAR-T Cell Treatment in CD70 Positive Relapsed/Refractory Lymphoma

In this single-center, single-arm,prospective, open-label, phase 1/2 study, the safety and efficacy of autologous CD70 targeted chimeric antigen receptor modified T (CAR-T) cell therapy will be evaluated in patients with CD70 antigen positive Relapsed/Refractory Lymphoma . In this clinical trial, at least 12 eligible patients in dose escalation period will be enrolled to receive 3 doses of CD70-CAR cell therapy according to the "3+3" principle. In dose expansion period, additional at most 21 eligible patients will be enrolled to receive CD70-CAR-T cell therapy at dose of recommended phase 2 dose(RP2D).

Read the detailed description

CAR-T cell therapy has been identified as a breakthrough therapy in hematologic malignancies,especially anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy in the treatment of r/r B-NHL has achieved remarkable efficacy.However, relapse with CD19-negative tumor after treatment with anti-CD19 CAR-T cells has been reported in different types of B-cell lymphoid malignancies, with a percentage up to 38% in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).At present, the CAR-T cell treatment for HL is mainly confined to CD30 antigen,with an objective response rate (ORR) only 38%~62%. Therefore, a more effective treatment strategy is needed for these patients.

CD70, the membrane-binding ligand of the CD27 (a tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily), has been reported to mediate tumour cell proliferation and be expressed on the malignant cells of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL),mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and follicular lymphomas (FL), as well as Hodgkin lymphoma, etc,but rarely on normal B cells or T cells,indicating CD70 targeted treament has emerged as potentialnovel immunotherapeutic strategy.Preclinical study demonstrated CD70-CAR-T cells represent a new therapeutic option for the treatment of patients with CD19-negative recurrence of lymphoma.Based on the preclinical data, we conduct this clinical trial in order to test the the safety profiles and anti-tumor activities of CD70-CAR-T cells in vivo. In dose escalation period, at least 12 eligible patients will be enrolled and receive 3 doses of CD70-CAR-T cell therapy (1 × 10^6 cells/kg, 3 × 10^6 cells/kg, 1 × 10^7 cells/kg) according to the "3+3" principle. In dose expansion period, additional at most 21 eligible patients will be enrolled to receive CD70-CAR-T cell infusion at dose of RP2D, which is determined by data from dose escalation period, including occurrence of dose limiting toxicities(DLT), pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, efficacy and other parameters, to furtherly evaluate the safety and efficacy profiles of CD70-CAR-T cell therapy.

Other AEs were graded according to common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE) v5.0.

    Measured: Up to 12 months since the initiation of CD70-CAR-T cell therapy.

  2. Incidence of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs)

    DLT was defined as CD70-CAR-T cells-related events with onset within first 28 days following infusion:

    Thedevelopment of Grade (G) 3 or higher grade CRS lasting > 2 weeks; All G4 non-hematologic toxicities.

    Measured: Up to 28 days since the initiation of CD70-CAR-T cell therapy

  3. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD)

    MTD is defined as the highest dose level of less than or equal to 2 DLT among the 6 subjects finally determined.

    Measured: Up to 28 days since the initiation of CD70-CAR-T cell therapy

Secondary outcomes (7)

    Number and copy number of CD70-CAR-T cells are evaluated by number in peripheral blood and tumor tissue.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. Objective response rate (ORR)

    The incidence of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), progressive disease (PD), or unevaluable (UE) as the best response to treatment assessed by investigators and based on the Lugano 2014.

    assessment criterion

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  3. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Progression Free Survival is defined as the time from the initiation of CD70-CAR-T cell therapy to documented disease progression or death.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  4. Time to response (TTR)

    TTR is defined as the time from CD70-CAR-T cell infusion to first assessed CR or PR by investigators and based on the Lugano 2014 assessment criterion.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  5. Duration of response (DOR)

    Duration of response is defined as the time from objective response until documented tumor progression among responders.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  6. Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall Survival is defined as the time from the initiation of CD70-CAR-T cell therapy to documented disease progression or death.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  7. Pharmacodynamics: Peak level of cytokines in serum (phase 1 and phase 2)

    The cytokines mainly include interleukin-2 (IL-2 ), IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), C reactive protein (CRP), ferritin. Peak was defined as the maximum post-baseline level of the cytokine.

    Measured: Up to 28 days since the initiation of CD70-CAR-T cell therapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing CD70-targeting CAR-T cells in people with Lymphoma, run by Chinese PLA General Hospital 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 17 inclusion and 15 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jul 2023. 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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Weidong Han, Ph.D (010-66937231 ext. +86, hanwdrsw@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of treatment related adverse events(AEs) (time frame: Up to 12 months since the initiation of CD70-CAR-T cell therapy.). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 17 Jul 2023.
