B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Conditions
Keywords
IFN-α, CAR-T
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IFN-α combined with CAR-T cell therapy in relapsed and refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R ALL).
Detailed description
This is a phase 2, single-center study. The patients will receive IFN-α combined with infusion of CAR T-cells in R/R B-ALL patients. The study participation will be 5 years including treatment and follow-up periods.
Interventions
Adults: 14 daily intramuscular injections 300 million IU of Interferon-α for a 28-day cycle. Children: 14 daily intramuscular injections 200mg/m\^2 of Interferon-α for a 28-day cycle. CAR T cell: (1-2)×10\^7/kg, intravenously infusion.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Overall response rate (ORR) | 2 years | ORR includes CR, CRi, MLFS and PR. Complete remission (CR):Bone marrow blasts \<5%; absence of circulating blasts and blasts with Auer rods; absence of extramedullary disease; absolute neutrophil count \>1.0x 10\^9/L; platelet count \>100x10\^9/L. CR with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi):All CR criteria except for residual neutropenia (\<1.0x10\^9/L) or thrombocytopenia (\<100x10\^9/L). Morphologic leukemia-free state (MLFS): Bone marrow blasts \<5%; absence of blasts with Auer rods; absence of extramedullary disease; no hematologic recovery required. Partial remission (PR): All hematologic criteria of CR; decrease of bone marrow blast percentage to 5% to 25%; and decrease of pretreatment bone marrow blast percentage by at least 50%. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Overall survival (OS) | 2 years | time from enrollment to the date of death from any cause |
| Leukemia-free survival (LFS) | 2 years | time from enrollment to the date of primary refractory disease, or relapse from CR, or death from any cause |
| Cumulative incidence of relapse(CIR) | 2 years | time from the date of achievement of a remission until the date of relapse |
| the duration of CAR-T cells in patients | 2 years | the time of CAR-T cells' persistence in blood and the copies of CAR-T cells |
| Number of adverse events | 2 years | adverse events are evaluated with CTCAE V5.0 |
