Brief summary

This is a Phase 1b/2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous T cells engineered with a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeting CD19 in adult patients with relapsed or refractory (r/r) B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).

Detailed description

This Phase 1b/2, open-label, multi-center, single arm study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AUTO1 in adult patients with B-cell ALL by determining the overall response rate (ORR). Adult patients with r/r ALL will be enrolled in both phases of the study. Consented patients will go through the following five sequential stages: screening, leukapheresis, pre-conditioning, treatment, and follow-up. All patients will receive a total target dose of 410E+6 of CAR T cells as a split dose on Day 1 and on Day 10 (± 2 days).

Interventions

BIOLOGICALAUTO1

Following pre-conditioning with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine) patients will be treated with a total target dose of 410E+6 of CD19-positive CAR T cells as a split dose on Day 1 and on Day 10 (±2 days).
