Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Defibrotide

Part 1 (lead-in phase) will evaluate a 2.5 mg/kg/dose regimen before escalating to a 6.25 mg/kg/dose regimen. After the Safety Assessment Committee establishes the recommended phase 2 dose based on dose-limiting toxicities during Part 1, Part 2 will enroll subjects at the recommended phase 2 dose.

Drug: Defibrotide
Part 1: Defibrotide 2.5 mg/kg/dose or 6.25 mg/kg/dose once daily as a single dose on CAR-T Day -5, -4, and -3 before lymphodepletion, then every 6 hours daily for 8 days (CAR-T Day 0 to Day 7). Part 2 Recommended Phase 2 Dose: Defibrotide 6.25 mg/kg/dose once daily as a single dose on CAR-T Day -5, -4, and -3 before lymphodepletion, then every 6 hours daily for 8 days (CAR-T Day 0 to Day 7).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Incidence of CAR-T-associated Neurotoxicity of Any Grade, Defined by CTCAE v5.0 by CAR-T Day +30 [By CAR-T Day +30]

    The primary efficacy endpoint was the incidence of CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity of any grade defined by CTCAE v5.0 by CAR-T Day +30. The results report the estimated percentage of participants with no CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity of any grade, defined by CTCAE v5.0, which incorporated the 2 stage design.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Incidence of CAR-T-Associated Neurotoxicity Grade 3 or Greater Defined by CTCAE v5.0 by CAR-T Day +30 [By CAR-T Day +30]

    The secondary efficacy endpoint was the incidence of CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity Grade 3 or greater defined by CTCAE v5.0 by CAR-T Day +30. The results report the estimated percentage of participants with no CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity (Grade 3 or greater defined by CTCAE v5.0) by CAR-T Day +30.

  2. Incidence of CAR-T-Associated Neurotoxicity of Any Grade According to the ASBMT Consensus Grading System by CAR-T Day +30 [By CAR-T Day +30]

    The secondary efficacy endpoint was the incidence of CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity of any grade according to ASBMT consensus grading system by CAR-T Day +30. The results report the estimated percentage of participants with no CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity by CAR-T Day +30 summarized descriptively by any grade according to the ASBMT consensus grading system.

  3. Incidence of CAR-T-Associated Neurotoxicity of Grade 3 or Greater According to the ASBMT Consensus Grading System by CAR-T Day +30 [By CAR-T Day +30]

    The secondary efficacy endpoint was the incidence of CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity grade 3 or greater according to ASBMT consensus grading system by CAR-T Day +30. The results report the estimated percentage of participants with no CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity by CAR-T Day +30 summarized descriptively by grade 3 or greater according to the ASBMT consensus grading system.

  4. Incidence of Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) of Any Grade According to the ASBMT Consensus Grading System by CAR-T Day +30 [By CAR-T Day +30]

    The secondary efficacy endpoint was the incidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) of any grade according to ASBMT consensus grading system by CAR-T Day +30. The results report the estimated percentage of participants with no CRS any grade according to ASBMT criteria and was summarized descriptively using the ASBMT consensus grading system by CAR-T Day +30.

  5. Use of High Dose Steroid By CAR-T Day +30 [By CAR-T Day +30]

    The percentage of participants using high dose steroids was summarized descriptively. The use of high dose steroids was defined as a dose of dexamethasone of at least 7.5 mg/day or equivalent. Only the Overall Defibrotide: 6.25 mg/kg/dose group was analyzed for this outcome.
