Study Details

Brief summary:

Background:

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a type of blood cancer. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) therapy involves taking immune cells (T cells) from a person and modifying them to better target cancer cells. CAR T-cell therapy that targets a marker called CD19 has been show to can cure ALL in many children and adults. But in about 50% of patients, the ALL comes back within a year. Researchers want to find out if a second treatment with CAR T-cell therapy that targets a different marker, CD22, can keep the cancer away longer.

Objective:

To see if CD22 CAR T-cell therapy can keep ALL away longer.

Eligibility:

People aged 3 to 65 years who have no signs of cancer after CD19 CAR T-cell treatment for ALL.

Design:

Participants will be screened. They will have imaging scans and tests of their heart function. A sample of tissue (biopsy) will be collected from their bone marrow. They will have a fluid sample collected from the area around their spinal cord.

Participants will undergo collection of their white blood cells (T cells) during a procedure called leukapheresis. Blood will be taken from their body through a vein. The blood will pass through a machine that separates out the T cells. The remaining blood will be returned to the body through a different vein. The cells will be altered in a lab to create CD22 CAR T-cell therapy.

Participants will take drugs over 4 consecutive days to prepare their body for the CAR T-cell therapy; then they will receive their modified T cells through a tube inserted into a vein. Some people may need to stay in the hospital during treatment.

Participants will have follow-up visits for 2 years.

Age: 3 - 65

Healthy Volunteers: Not accepted

  • INCLUSION CRITERIA:
  • Participants must have documentation of pathologic confirmation of a diagnosis of relapsed/refractory B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
  • History of CD19 and CD22 expression on malignant cells at diagnosis or relapse.
  • Age between >= 3 years and <= 65 years
  • Participants must have received an FDA-approved CD19 CAR T-cell construct for treatment of B cell ALL within the time period of >= 2 months and <= 7 months prior to apheresis or lymphodepleting (LD) (if apheresis is not done on this protocol).
  • Must be in an MRD-negative remission as demonstrated by flow cytometry at screening.
  • Must be ineligible for or unwilling to undergo allogeneic stem cell transplant (SCT).
  • Clinical performance status (PS): Karnofsky >= 50% (participants >= 16 years of age), or Lansky scale >= 50% (participants < 16 years of age). Participants who are unable to walk because of paralysis, but who are upright in a wheelchair may be considered eligible.
  • Must have no ongoing signs of CRS from prior CAR T cell infusion and/or ICANs at screening.
  • Participants must have adequate organ function as defined below:

  • Total bilirubin <= 2 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) <= 10 x ULN
  • Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) <= 10 x ULN
  • creatinine <= the maximum for age listed below OR measured creatinine clearance >= 60 mL/min/1.73 m\^2 for participants with

creatinine levels above the max

  • Age: <=5, Maximum Serum, Creatinine <= .8 mg/dL
  • Age: >5 to <=10, Maximum Serum, Creatinine <= 1.0mg/dL
  • Age: >10, Maximum Serum, Creatinine <= 1.2mg/dL

  • A participant may have continued to expect CAR T cell-associated cytopenias of any grade.
  • Cardiac function: left ventricular ejection fraction>= 45% or fractional shortening >= 28%.
  • Pulmonary function: baseline oxygen saturation >= 92% on room air; participants with respiratory symptoms (e.g., dyspnea, hypoxia <92%) must have a diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLCO)/adjusted > 45%.
  • Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must agree to use highly effective contraception (hormonal, intrauterine device (IUD), abstinence, surgical sterilization) at the study entry and up to 12 months after the last dose of combined chemotherapy.

Note: WOCBP is defined as any individual who has experienced menarche and who has not undergone successful surgical sterilization or who is not postmenopausal.

Men able to father a child must agree to use an effective method of contraception (barrier, surgical sterilization, abstinence) at the study entry and up to 7 months after the last dose of study drugs. We also will recommend men ask their partners to be on highly effective birth control (hormonal, IUD, surgical sterilization). Individuals able to father a child must not freeze or donate sperm within the same period.

  • Nursing participants must be willing to discontinue nursing from study treatment initiation through 6 months after the last dose of the study drug(s).
  • Participants must be enrolled on protocol 15-C-0028, Follow-Up Evaluation for Gene- Therapy Related Delayed Adverse Events after Participation in Pediatric Oncology Branch Clinical Trials.
  • Ability of participant or /Legally Authorized Representative (LAR) to understand and be willing to sign a written informed consent document.

EXCLUSION CRITERIA:

  • Any central nervous system (CNS) involvement or signs of non-CNS extramedullary disease.
  • Any active graft versus host disease (GVHD) in participants who are post-HSCT.
  • Participants with disease recurrence requiring therapy post CD19 CAR. Note: Maintenance therapy post CD19 CAR (e.g., vincristine or tyrosine kinase inhibitor) for remission maintenance is allowed and will require a 1-week washout prior to apheresis or LD (if apheresis is not done on this protocol).
  • Any investigational agent within 1 week before apheresis or LD (if apheresis is not done on this protocol).
  • Pregnancy confirmed with beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-HCG) serum or urine test performed at screening.
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, as measured by seropositivity for (HIV) antibody.
  • Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, as measured by positivity for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg).
  • Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, as measured by seropositivity for hepatitis C.
  • History of severe, immediate hypersensitivity reaction attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biological composition to any agent used in the study or in the manufacturing of cells.
  • Uncontrolled, symptomatic intercurrent illness evaluated by medical history, physical exam, and/or laboratory testing, or social situation that would limit compliance with study requirements or would pose an unacceptable risk to the participant.

Lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by CD22 CAR T-cells

Interventions

CD22 CAR-transduced T cells

CD22-CAR-transduced T cells on D0 after lymphodepleting preparative regimen

Cyclophosphamide

Cyclophosphamide will be diluted in an appropriate solution and infused over one hour. The dose will be based on the patient s body weight, at 500 mg/m\^2/dose after fludarabine infusion on days -3 and -2.

Fludarabine

Fludarabine is administered as an IV infusion in an appropriate solution over 30 minutes on days -5 through -2. To prevent undue toxicity the dose will be based on BSA (30 mg/m\^2/dose).

Primary outcome measure

  • 1-year RFS (recurrence free survival) [ Time Frame: 1 year post cell infusion ]
