Main objective

Scope: Dose response, Safety, Therapy, Efficacy

The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of escalating doses of autologous activated peripheral blood T lymphocytes (ATLs) genetically modified to express third-generation CARs (comprising the CD28 and CD137 (4-1BB) costimulatory domain) that target the CD19 molecule in patients with refractory or relapsed CD19+ lymphoid disease such as ALL or NHL including CLL, DLBCL, FL and/or MCL.

Secondary objectives 10

  1. Evaluation of survival and function of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) TCs directed against CD19 (CD19.CAR TC) in vivo
  2. Characterization of in vivo cellular pharmakokinetics
  3. Correlation of clinical response and number of circulating gene modified cells
  4. Reduction of disease burden with CD19.CAR TC transfusions
  5. Anti-tumor efficacy of CD19.CAR TCs in patients with CD19+ lymphoid disease (overall response rate (ORR), complete response (CR), partial response (PR)) at day 90 (EOS) after CD19.CAR TC transfusion)
  6. Time to response (at least PR) after the CD19.CAR TC transfusion
  7. Duration of overall response (DOR) after the CD19.CAR TC transfusion
  8. Progression-free survival (PFS) after the CD19.CAR TC transfusion
  9. Overall survival (OS) after the CD19.CAR TC transfusion
  10. Correlation of B-cell depletion in vivo and response to CD19.CAR TC treatment
