Summary

This trial is testing a new treatment for leukemia that involves genetically engineering a patient's own T cells to attack the cancer.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia that's come back or hasn't responded to treatment. They must have a certain level of cancer cells in their bone marrow, be relatively healthy (ECOG status 0 or 1), and not have severe infections or other specific blood diseases. People with heart, liver, kidney, or lung problems can't join.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing AUTO1, a CAR T cell therapy designed to target CD19 on cancer cells in adults with relapsed/refractory B-ALL. It aims to see how safe it is and how well it works at different stages of the disease.
What are the potential side effects?
CAR T cell therapies like AUTO1 may cause symptoms such as fever, fatigue, headache, difficulty breathing, rapid heartbeat and low blood pressure. Some people might experience more serious effects affecting the brain or immune system.
