View clinical trials related to B-Precursor ALL.
Filter by:Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer in children. About 90% of children and young adults who are treated for ALL can now be cured. But if the disease comes back, the survival rate drops to less than 50%. Better treatments are needed for ALL relapses. Objective: To test chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) therapy. CARs are genetically modified cells created from each patient s own blood cells. his trial will use a new type of CAR T-cell that is targeting both CD19 and CD22 at the same time. CD19 and CD22 are proteins found on the surface of most types of ALL. Eligibility: People aged 3 to 35 with ALL or related B-cell lymphoma that has not been cured by standard therapy. Design: Participants will be screened. This will include: Physical exam Blood and urine tests Tests of their lung and heart function Imaging scans Bone marrow biopsy. A large needle will be inserted into the body to draw some tissues from the interior of a bone. Lumbar puncture. A needle will be inserted into the lower back to draw fluid from the area around the spinal cord. Participants will undergo apheresis. Their blood will circulate through a machine that separates blood into different parts. The portion containing T cells will be collected; the remaining cells and fluids will be returned to the body. The T cells will be changed in a laboratory to make them better at fighting cancer cells. Participants will receive chemotherapy starting 4 or 5 days before the CAR treatment. Participants will be admitted to the hospital. Their own modified T cells will be returned to their body. Participants will visit the clinic 2 times a week for 28 days after treatment. Follow-up will continue for 15 years....
The trial proposed here attempts to reduce induction chemotherapy to phase I of standard induction in patients with B-precursor ALL. Induction phase II will be replaced by blinatumomab. The initial treatment phase is followed by sequential chemotherapy and further blinatumomab cycles.
Background: - One type of cancer therapy takes blood cells from a person, changes them in a lab, then gives the cells back to the person. In this study, researchers are using an anti-CD22 gene, a virus, and an immune receptor to change the cells. Objective: - To see if giving anti-CD22 Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) cells to young people with certain cancers is safe and effective. Eligibility: - People ages 1-39 with a leukemia or lymphoma that has not been cured by standard therapy. Design: - Participants will be screened to ensure their cancer cells express the CD22 protein. They will also have medical history, physical exam, blood and urine tests, heart tests, scans, and x-rays. They may give spinal fluid or have bone marrow tests. - Participants may have eye and neurologic exams. - Participants will get a central venous catheter or a catheter in a large vein. - Participants will have white blood cells removed. Blood is removed through a needle in an arm. White blood cells are removed. The rest of the blood is returned by needle in the other arm. - The cells will be changed in a laboratory. - Participants will get two IV chemotherapy drugs over 4 days. Some will stay in the hospital for this. - All participants will be in the hospital to get anti-CD22 CAR cells through IV. They will stay until any bad side effects are gone. - Participants will have many blood tests. They may repeat some screening exams. - Participants will have monthly visits for 2-3 months, then every 3-6 months. They may repeat some screening exams. - Participants will have follow-up for 15 years.
