Study Summary

This trial is designed to study the safety and efficacy of CAR19-tTreg cells in patients with relapsed or refractory CD19+ B-ALL.

Who is the study for?
Adults with relapsed/refractory CD19+ B-ALL who've failed standard treatments can join this trial. They must have a certain level of organ function, not be on recent immunosuppressives or investigational drugs, and cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding. Those with active infections, severe heart conditions, allergies to specific manufacturing components, or available FDA-approved CAR T cell therapy are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of allogeneic CAR19 regulatory T cells (CAR19-tTreg) in adults with stubborn leukemia that hasn't responded to other treatments. It's a two-part study: first finding the right dose and then seeing how well it works more broadly.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to immune system activation such as fever and fatigue, issues from infused cells like allergic reactions or infusion-related symptoms, and possible organ inflammation due to the treatment's targeted action.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Phase I/IIExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CAR19-tTreg. It will be administered in a single dose after high dose lymphodepleting chemotherapy to promote adoptive transfer. First dose of 1.0 x 10 6 CAR19-tTreg/kg recipient body weight (dose level 1).The subsequent doses are 3.0, 10.0 and 30.0 x 10 6 CAR19- tTreg/kg. PHASE II Expand trial on maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CAR19-tTreg from Phase I. It will be administered in a single dose after high dose lymphodepleting chemotherapy to promote adoptive transfer.The CAR19-tTreg/kg dose is to be determined.
