Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a pilot study in adult subjects with aggressive B-cell lymphoma who will receive commercial or research CAR T cell therapy as anticancer treatment.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: [ 18F]F-AraG PET
Phase 2

Detailed Description

Primary Objectives:
  • Explore the relationship of change in [18F]F-AraG PET signal following CAR T cell treatment with changes in T cell infiltration in tumor biopsies.
Exploratory Analyses:
  • Explore the relationship of change in [18F]F-AraG PET signal in tumor lesions following CAR T cell treatment with clinical benefit rate (defined as Complete Response (CR) + Partial Response (PR) + stable disease (SD) ≥ 3 months) using RECISTv1.1 criteria

  • Correlate the change in [18F]F-AraG PET signal in tumor lesions following CAR T cell therapy with maximum grade of Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity experienced.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: [18F]F-AraG PET

Subjects will undergo PET imaging at the following time points: Baseline, prior to lymphodepleting chemotherapy: [18F]F-AraGPET/CT, followed the next day by FDG-PET/CT At peak CAR expansion: Day 4 (± 2 days) post-CAR infusion: [18F]F-AraG PET At Day +28 (± 4 days) post-CAR infusion: FDG-PET/CT Subjects will have a paired biopsy after each imaging time point, if possible. Subjects will be followed for safety of [18F]F-AraG for 30 days after last dose

Drug: [ 18F]F-AraG PET
Dose: 5 mCi (±10%) Mode of Administration: Intravenous (IV)
Other Names:
  • [ 18F]F-AraG (2'-deoxy-2'-fluoro-9-β-D- arabinofuranosylguanine; trade name VisAcT)
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Primary outcome measure [values obtained on Day 0 and Day 4 (± 2 days)]

      Spearman correlation between changes in SUV in [18F]F-AraG signal on PET imaging to changes in T-cell infiltrates in biopsy samples

    Other Outcome Measures

    1. First exploratory outcome measure [≥ 3 months]

      correlation between changes in SUV [18F]F-AraG signal on PET imaging to the observed clinical benefit rate using RECISTv1.1 criteria.

    2. Second exploratory outcome measure [≥ 3 months]

      Correlation between changes in [18F]F-AraG signal to the frequency and grade of two common CAR T cell toxicities, cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity, if observed in this study population.
