Summary

This trial is testing if adding a new drug to an existing lymphoma treatment can improve safety and effectiveness.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with large B-cell lymphoma that has come back or hasn't responded to treatment. Participants must have had at least two prior chemotherapy treatments, be in good physical condition (ECOG status 0 or 1), and not have immune reactions against donor cells. They can't join if they've had a bone marrow transplant in the last six months or cancer affecting their central nervous system.
What is being tested?
The EXPAND study is testing whether adding ALLO-647 to the usual drugs fludarabine and cyclophosphamide helps improve outcomes when given before CAR T cell therapy (ALLO-501A) in patients whose large B-cell lymphoma has relapsed or is resistant to treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include those related to CAR T cell therapy like fever, difficulty breathing, rapid heartbeat, low blood pressure, confusion; and from chemotherapy such as nausea, hair loss, mouth sores, fatigue, increased risk of infection.
