Summary

This trial is testing the side effects of a new treatment for patients with a weakened immune system and adenovirus-related disease. The treatment is made from donated blood cells and is designed to kill viruses that can cause infections.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for immunocompromised patients with blood cancers and asymptomatic adenovirus viremia, or those showing probable or definitive signs of the disease. Participants must consent, not be pregnant, agree to use contraception if applicable, and cannot have certain uncontrolled infections or recent treatments that suppress the immune system.
What is being tested?
The study tests donor T cell therapy using allogeneic adenovirus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in patients with weakened immune systems due to blood cancers. These CTLs are grown from donated cells aimed at fighting off adenovirus infections.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to the infusion of foreign cells such as fever, chills, fatigue, headache, muscle aches; there's also a risk of these cells attacking healthy body tissues (graft-versus-host disease).

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (allogeneic adenovirus-specific CTLs)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Within two weeks of enrollment, patients receive allogeneic adenovirus-specific CTLs IV over 30 minutes. Patients may receive additional allogeneic adenovirus-specific CTL infusions at the discretion of the investigator in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
