Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To find the highest tolerable dose of dualCAR-NK19/70 (a type of cell therapy) that can be given to patients who have B-cell lymphoma that is relapsed or refractory.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: dualCAR-NK19/70 cell
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

Primary Objectives:

--The primary objective is to determine the safety and identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of dualCAR-NK19/70 in patients with r/r B-cell lymphomas.

Hypothesis: DualCAR-NK19/70 will be safe, well-tolerated, and effective in patients with r/r B-cell lymphomas.

Secondary Objectives:

--The secondary objective is to determine the efficacy in adults with r/r LBCL and FL grade 3B treated at the MTD or RP2D of dualCAR-NK19/70. Although the clinical benefit of dualCAR-NK19/70 has not yet been established, the intent of offering this treatment is to provide a possible therapeutic benefit, and thus the patient will be carefully monitored for tumor response and symptom relief in addition to safety and tolerability. Secondary endpoints include overall response rate (ORR; including CR + PR) and CR rate as defined by the Lugano Classification response criteria for malignant lymphoma, DOR, PFS, and OS.

Exploratory Objectives:

--The exploratory objectives are to assess the cellular kinetics and pharmacodynamic effects of dualCAR-NK19/70 and to evaluate biomarkers associated with response, resistance, and toxicity after administration of dualCAR-NK19/70 in blood and tumor samples.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Part 1 (dose escalation) and Part 2 (dose expansion)

Part 1 (dose escalation) the dose of dualCAR-NK19/70 participants receive will depend on when you join this study. Up to 3 dose levels of dualCAR-NK19/70 will be tested. About 3-6 participants will be enrolled at each dose level. The first group of participants will receive the lowest dose level of dualCAR-NK19/70. Each new group will receive a higher dose of dualCAR-NK19/70 than the group before it, if no intolerable side effects were seen. This will continue until the highest tolerable dose of dualCAR-NK19/70 is found. Part 2 (dose expansion) Participants will receive dualCAR-NK19/70 at the recommended dose that was found in Part 1.
