Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a single arm, open-label, multi-center, phase II study to determine the efficacy and safety of CTL019 in pediatric patients with r/r B-cell ALL.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Biological: CTL019
Phase 2

Detailed Description

This was a initially a one cohort, open-label, multi-center, phase II study to determine the efficacy and safety of CTL019 in pediatric patients with r/r B-cell ALL. This main cohort completed enrollment. Two new cohorts were added via an amendment, Cohort 1 for high risk B-cell ALL patients at first relapse, and Cohort 2 for feasibility and safety of CTL019 in high risk B-cell ALL in patients that relapsed <6 months post allo-HSCT. Due to lack of recruitment, both of these cohorts have halted recruitment. This decision was not related to any safety issue.

The study had the following sequential phases: Screening, Pre-Treatment (Cell Product Preparation & Lymphodepleting Chemotherapy), Treatment and Primary Follow-up, Secondary Follow-up (if applicable) and Survival Follow-up. The total duration of the study is 5 years from CTL019 cell infusion.

Study Results

Participant Flow

Recruitment Details Patients were recruited between 08-Apr-2015 (FPFV) and 14-Jan-2020 (LPFV). 79 patients were infused in the main cohort, Cohort 1 had only 1 patient infused, and cohort 2 had no patients infused. Only main cohort analysis is presented through the data cutoff of 13-Apr-2018. At the time of this cutoff, all patients had completed at least 3 months of follow-up post-infusion and therefore were evaluable for the primary outcome measure.
Pre-assignment Detail "Enrolled" means all eligibility criteria were met and apheresis was accepted by the manufacturing facility. Patients could discontinue the trial after enrollment and prior to tisagenlecleucel infusion. Although 97 patients were enrolled, only 79 were infused as 18 discontinued prior to infusion.
