Conditions

B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, B-cell Lymphoma

Brief summary

The stunning response rate of anti-CD19(cluster of differentiation antigen 19) auto-CAR(chimeric antigen receptor)-T cell therapy brings hope to patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell hematologic malignancies. However, based on open clinical trials, using patients' T cells might encounter the failure of apheresis available T cells, even if successful, the time needed for the manufacture could also cause the irreversible disease progress. Furthermore, the cost of auto-CAR-T cells is not affordable for most patients. So to provide an accessible and affordable anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy for patients with B-cell hematologic malignancies, we launch such a trial that using the edited T cells from healthy donors to manufacture universal CAR-T cells and adapt it in patients with CD19+ B-cell leukemia or lymphoma.

Inclusion criteria

* 1\. Diagnosis of recurrent B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), B-cell acute lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LLy), or B-non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) 2\. CD19-positive tumor (≥20% CD19 positive blasts by flow cytometry or immunohistochemistry (tissue)) 3\. Hgb ≥ 7.0 (can be transfused) 4\. Life expectancy greater than 12 weeks 5\. Informed consent explained to, understood by and signed by the patient/guardian. The patient/guardian is given a copy of informed consent.

Exclusion criteria

1. Pregnant or lactating. 2. Tumor in a location where enlargement could cause airway obstruction (per investigator discretion). 3. Active infection with HIV or HTLV. 4. Clinically significant viral infection or uncontrolled viral reactivation of EBV(Epstein-Barr virus), CMV(cytomegalovirus), ADV(adenovirus), BK-virus, or HHV(human herpesvirus)-6. 5. Any of the following cardiac criteria: Atrial fibrillation/flutter; Myocardial infarction within the last 12 months; Prolonged QT syndrome or secondary prolonged QT, per investigator discretion. Cardiac echocardiography with LVSF (left ventricular shortening fraction)\<30% or LVEF(left ventricular ejection fraction)\<50%; or clinically significant pericardial effusion. Cardiac dysfunction NYHA(New York Heart Association) III or IV (Confirmation of absence of these conditions on echocardiogram within 12 months of treatment). 6. CNS abnormalities: Presence of CNS(central nervous system)-3 disease defined as detectable cerebrospinal blast cells in a sample of CSF(cerebrospinal fluid) with ≥ 5 WBC( white blood cell)s per mm3 (unless negative by the Steinherz/Bleyer algorithm); Presence of any CNS disorder such as an uncontrolled seizure disorder, cerebrovascular ischemia/hemorrhage, dementia, cerebellar disease, or any autoimmune disease with CNS involvement.
