Filter by:The purpose of this clinical trial is to assess the feasibility, safety and efficacy of universal CAR T cells based on 4SCAR7U design against CD7-positive hematological malignancies using CD7 specific universal CAR T cells. The study also aims to learn more about the function of CD7 targeting CAR T cells and their persistence in patients of hematological malignancies.
The purpose of this registry study is to create a database-a collection of information-for better understanding T-cell lymphoma. Researchers will use the information from this database to learn more about how to improve outcomes for people with T-cell lymphoma.
Uveitis is an inflammation of the uvea, an ocular tunic comprising the iris, ciliary body and choroid. This inflammation can also involve other tissues such as the retina, the optic nerve and the aqueous humor. These diseases can result in significant vision loss and account for 10% of all blindness in developed countries, and up to 25% in developing countries. The main difficulty in this pathology is to make the etiological diagnosis, which then allows a specific treatment of the disease. The main etiologie are inflammatory or infectious (sarcoidosis, tuberculosis) but other cancerous etiologies are possible and are of more complicated diagnosis. Vitreoretinal lymphoma is a subtype of central nervous system lymphoma, which is generally associated with a poor prognosis. It is a diffuse non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, with large B cells. It can be primary ocular (Primary Intra-Ocular Lymphoma - LIOP), without brain involvement, but can also be secondary to central nervous system involvement, which explains the poor prognosis of the disease. Approximately 50-90% of LIOP develop brain involvement within 1-2 years of diagnosis, which encourages early diagnosis to avoid brain involvement as much as possible. The main obstacle to rapid diagnosis is the difficulty of identifying LIOP. Indeed, the clinical symptoms of this rare disease are often identical to classical uveitis, and the diagnostic means to detect it are invasive and require a trained ophthalmologist and hematologist team. LIOP diagnostic tests are often delay in the management of uveitis and lead to diagnostic erraticity that can last between 4 to 40 months. The INSERM U1183 unit is developing a diagnostic technology for lymphomas based on the analysis of blood NK cells and their phenotypes including those acquired by trogocytosis (WO/2016/005548). A rapid, simple, minimally invasive LIOP test using this technology could therefore be propose to all patients presenting with uveitis and whose clinical criteria could match those of LIOP. The research hypothesis is : Could the diagnostic wandering of patients with primary intraocular lymphoma be reduced by a rapid blood test for NK cell phenotype of patients with uveitis? Following a simple blood test, a rapid LIOP test, using this diagnostic technology, could therefore be proposed to all patients with uveitis and clinical criteria (age, intermediate and posterior location of the uveitis) corresponding to those of LIOP. The primary objective of this study is to compare the phenotype of circulating NK cells of patient with untreated intraocular lymphoma versus the phenotype of patient with non-cancerous uveitis.

Patients are in 2 cohorts: Cohort 1: dexamethasone, methotrexate, ifosfamide, pegaspargase, and etoposide (modified SMILE) chemotherapy regimen alone and pembrolizumab in children, adolescents, and young adults with advanced stage NK lymphoma and leukemia Cohort 2: combining pralatrexate (PRX) (Cycles 1, 2, 4, 6) and brentuximab vedotin (BV) (Cycles 3, 5) to cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone in children, adolescent, and young adults with advanced peripheral T-cell lymphoma (non-anaplastic large cell lymphoma or non-NK lymphoma/leukemia) . Both groups proceed to allogeneic stem cell transplant with disease response.
The designed study follows up on the previous one by the international T-cell project (Bellei et al,, 2012) and its purpose is to verify whether a prospective collection of data would permit access to more accurate information permitting a better definition of prognosis and investigation of more adequate treatment strategies for these neoplasms. The analysis of patients distributed in all five macro regions of the country and a comparison among them will provide a real picture of the disease in Brazil, limiting the bias probably found in the previous projects.
Conventional chemotherapeutic regimens designed for aggressive B-cell lymphomas are generally less effective when applied to mature T-cell or NK-cell lymphomas. The treatment outcome for relapsed or refractory disease is especially poor. This is a single centre, prospective, non-randomized, open-label, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy of pembrolizumab in patients with relapsed or refractory mature T-cell or NK-cell lymphomas. Patients will receive pembrolizumab 200mg i.v. once every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. A baseline radiological assessment by positron emission tomography / computed tomography (PET/CT) scan is obtained before commencement of treatment. Tumor response and progression are evaluated by physical examination, standard laboratory tests, and PET/CT scan according to standard criteria. Standard response criteria for non-Hodgkin lymphomas are used for assessment . PET/CT scan will be done at week 12, week 24, week 36 and every 18 weeks thereafter.
