Clinical Trial Summary

This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 2 study to determine the safety, PK, and efficacy of lisocabtagene maraleucel (JCAR017) in subjects who have relapsed from, or are refractory to, two lines of immunochemotherapy for aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in the outpatient setting. Subjects will receive treatment with JCAR017 and will be followed for up to 2 years.

Description:

This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 2 study to assess the safety and antitumor activity in adult patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin Lymphoma when administered with lisocabtagene maraleucel (JCAR017) in the outpatient setting.

Upon the successful product generation of lisocabtagene maraleucel, subjects will enter the treatment phase of the study. Treatment will include lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by lisocabtagene maraleucel administration. Subjects will then enter the post-treatment follow-up phase of the study and will be followed for approximately 24 months for safety, disease status, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and survival. Long-term follow-up will continue under a separate long-term follow-up protocol, per health regulatory authority guidelines, currently up to 15 years after the last lisocabtagene maraleucel administration.

Primary	Percentage of Participants With Neurotoxicity (NT) Adverse Events Grade = 3	NT events have also been reported and may include neurologic symptoms such as altered mental status, aphasia, altered level of consciousness, and seizures or seizure-like activity.; Incidence of Grade = 3 NT, defined as an Investigator-identified TEAE considered neurotoxicity related to JCAR017.

Secondary	Overall Survival (OS)	Overall survival is defined as the time from infusion of JCAR017 to the date of death. For assessment of OS, data from surviving participants will be censored at the last time that the participant is known to be alive. The OS analysis will include all available survival information from the long-term follow-up study if applicable.	From first dose to up to approximately 41 months
Secondary	Area Under the Blood Concentration-time Curve From Time to Zero to 28 Days After Dosing AUC (0-28)		28days after first dose

Secondary	European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-C30	The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-item scale composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures. All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. A higher scale score represents a higher level of well-being and better ability of daily functioning. Thus, a high score for a functional scale represents a high/healthy level of functioning; a high score for the global health status/HRQoL represents a high HRQoL, but a high score for a symptom scale/item represents a high level of symptomatic problem.

The descriptive system comprises dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression). Each dimension has 5 levels (no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and extreme problems).	Enrollment to end of follow up, approximately 26 months
