Summary
This trial is combining two different ways of fighting disease, antibodies and T cells, in order to create a more effective treatment against cancer.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults and children with certain types of lymphoma (HL and NHL) that have returned or resisted treatment. Participants must not be pregnant, should use birth control if applicable, cannot have severe infections like HIV/HCV/HTLV, no recent cancer vaccines or CD30 antibody therapy, and must have good organ function. They also shouldn't be on high-dose steroids or medications that interfere with the chemotherapy drug bendamustine.
What is being tested?
The study tests ATLCAR.CD30 cells in patients after chemotherapy to find a safe dose and see how well it prevents cancer progression over two years. These are T cells modified with a new gene to target CD30+ lymphoma cells more effectively by using a combination of antibodies and T cell mechanisms.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to immune system activation such as fever, fatigue, inflammation in various organs due to targeted cell destruction; risk of infection from weakened immune response post-chemotherapy; possible infusion-related reactions when receiving the modified T cells.

Study Objectives
Study objectives can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.Primary study objectives
2 year progression free survival (PFS) after administration of ATLCAR.CD30 in combined adult/pediatric patients with CD30+ refractory/relapsed HL and NHL.
Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability of ATLCAR.CD30 cells to establish a safe dose after lymphodepletion after lymphodepletion with bendamustine and fludarabine in pediatric patients
Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability of ATLCAR.CD30 cells to establish a safe dose after lymphodepletion with bendamustine in adult patients
Secondary study objectives
2 year overall survival (OS) after administration of ATLCAR.CD30 transduced ATl following lymphodepletion with bendamustine in adult patients with CD30+ refractory/relapsed HL and NHL
2 year overall survival (OS) after administration of CAR.CD30 transduced ATL following lymphodepletion with bendamustine and fludarabine in adult and pediatric patients with CD30+ relapsed/refractory HL and NHL.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: ATLCAR.CD30 cellsExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Phase Ib: In adults, and separately, in children, two doses will be investigated 1x10\^8 cells/m2 and 2x10\^8 cells/m\^2. The study team will run two independent dose-escalation sequences, one for adults and another one for children. The study team plans to use the 3+3 design and start with a low dose of 1x10\^8 cells/m2. If there are no DLT in first 3 patients, the study team will go up to the dose of 2 x 10\^8 cells/m2. If there is toxicity in 1/3 patients in the initial cohort, the study team would expand to enroll up to 6 patients. If there are dose limiting toxicities (DLT) at the dose of 2 x 10\^8 cells/m\^2, the study team will initially decrease the dose to an intermediate dose of 1.5 x 10\^8 cells/m\^.
Phase II: The study team planning to enroll 31 patients to contribute data. Sequential boundary will be used to monitor DLT rate.
