This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of autologous anti-CD19 CAR-expressing T lymphocytes (CD19-CAR T cells) in older adults with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is a type of treatment in which a patient's T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient's blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein on the patient's cancer cells is added to the T cells in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion for treatment of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding levocarnitine to standard chemotherapy vs. standard chemotherapy alone in protecting the liver in patients with leukemia or lymphoma. Asparaginase is part of the standard of care chemotherapy for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), lymphoblastic lymphoma (LL), and mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL). However, in adolescent and young adults (AYA) ages 15-39 years, liver toxicity from asparaginase is common and often prevents delivery of planned chemotherapy, thereby potentially compromising outcomes. Some groups of people may also be at higher risk for liver damage due to the presence of fat in the liver even before starting chemotherapy. Patients who are of Japanese descent, Native Hawaiian, Hispanic or Latinx may be at greater risk for liver damage from chemotherapy for this reason. Carnitine is a naturally occurring nutrient that is part of a typical diet and is also made by the body. Carnitine is necessary for metabolism and its deficiency or absence is associated with liver and other organ damage. Levocarnitine is a drug used to provide extra carnitine. Laboratory and real-world usage of the dietary supplement levocarnitine suggests its potential to prevent or reduce liver toxicity from asparaginase. The overall goal of this study is to determine whether adding levocarnitine to standard of care chemotherapy will reduce the chance of developing severe liver damage from asparaginase chemotherapy in ALL, LL and/or MPAL patients.
Tisagenlecleucel (CTL019) is an anti-CD19 autologous Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, which has shown dramatic early results in advanced ALLs. Early loss of B-cell aplasia (recovery of B-cells in marrow/ peripheral blood within 6 months after infusion), a marker of the loss or non-functionality of the CAR T-cells, is associated to a very high risk of relapse. A reinfusion of CTL019, even after Fludarabine-Cyclophosphamide reconditioning, frequently fails to induce further expansion as observed in UPENN studies and in the Robert Debré Hospital experience. Non-persistence of CAR T-cells may be due to immune- mediated rejection or environment-mediated suppression of their growth. Evidence for increased PD-1 expression in CAR T-cells between infusion and peak expansion has been demonstrated in clinical samples. Preclinical data and few clinical data support a role of PD- 1-PD-L1 blockade in improving the effectiveness of CAR T-cell therapy. The objectives of this phase I/II study is to determine the safety, efficacy and feasibility of Nivolumab (Opdivo®)- an anti-PD1 treatment- combined to tisagenlecleucel in a cohort of relapsed or refractory B-ALL patients, aged 1-25 years old, previously treated by tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah®), with a demonstrated early loss of B-cell aplasia (within 6 months), a surrogate marker of the loss of CAR T-cells or their non- functionality. More specifically, the main objectives are: • In cohort 1 that includes patients with a MRD negative disease status combined to an early loss (within 6 months) of B-cell aplasia : To determine the optimal starting time of Nivolumab (Opdivo®) in terms of safety and efficacy among 4 candidate time points (day 14, day 11, day 5, and day - 1). • In cohort 2 that includes relapsed patients with an early loss (within 6 months) of B-cell aplasia : To estimate the feasibility in terms of safety and efficacy of a very early start of nivolumab (day-1), prior to the reinfusion of tisagenlecleucel
This phase II trial compares the combination of inotuzumab ozogamicin and chemotherapy to the usual chemotherapy in treating patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or B-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma. Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody, called inotuzumab, linked to a drug, called CalichDMH. Inotuzumab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as CD22 receptors, and delivers CalichDMH to kill them. Chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving inotuzumab ozogamicin with chemotherapy may help shrink the cancer and stop it from returning.
This trial aims to demonstrate the feasibility of this approach to reliably generate product and to safely administer the product to patients who have B-Cell Lymphoma and B-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of venetoclax in combination with a pediatric-inspired chemotherapy regimen known as C10403 in treating patients with newly diagnosed B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. The C10403 regimen is composed of the chemotherapy drugs cytarabine, cyclophosphamide, daunorubicin, mercaptopurine, pegaspargase, vincristine, and methotrexate, all which work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It also consists of prednisone, which is an anti-inflammatory drug that lowers the body's immune response and is used with other drugs in the treatment of some types of some types of cancer. This study may help researchers learn if adding venetoclax to the pediatric-inspired C10403 regimen can be tolerated and help treat older patients.
This study aimed to investigate the performance of next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques measuring immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH)-variable, diversity, and joining (V[D]J) clonal rearrangements （IgH-V[D]J NGS） compared with flow cytometry (FCM) in detecting of minimal residual disease (MRD) for children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated with South Chinese Children Leukemia Group (SCCLG)-ALL 2016, and to predict the relapse of the disease in the early stage and to assess the prognosis, so as to provide the basis for early intervention treatment and reduce the hematological relapse and improve the survival rate.
This phase Ib trial studies the effects of venetoclax in combination with dasatinib, prednisone, rituximab and blinatumomab in treating patients with Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that is newly diagnosed or that has come back (relapsed). Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Dasatinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as prednisone lower the body's immune response and are used with other drugs in the treatment of some types of cancer. Rituximab and blinatumomab are monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving venetoclax in combination with dasatinib, prednisone, and rituximab and blinatumomab may help treat patients with newly diagnosed or relapsed Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
CD19 is expressed in most B malignant tumors, especially in the former B cells ALL. This makes CD19 a natural target of immunotherapy. In terms of safety, the lack of B cells caused by CD19 targeted therapy will not cause life-threatening side effects (of course, Ig supplementation is necessary in the long-term B cell inhibition therapy). Moreover, the number of B cells can be restored after removing anti-CD19 treatment measures (such as anti-CD19 CART cells). In addition, CD19 has been chosen as the target of B-ALL therapy for the following reasons: ① as the BCR signal "amplifier", CD19 plays a role in PAX-5-mediated tumor formation; ② by activating MYC (as the oncogene controlled by PAX-5, C-MYC plays a key role in promoting the malignant proliferation of B cells), CD19 can cause B-ALL formation. Based on the above reasons, CD19 has become an ideal target in the treatment of B-cell cancer.
