Conditions

B-cell Lymphoma, B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Brief summary

This is an open-label, Phase I study of QN-019a (allogeneic CAR-NK cells targeting CD19) as monotherapy in relapsed/refractory B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL) and in combination with Rituximab in relapsed/refractory B-cell Lymphoma. This clinical study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of QN-019a in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoma or B-ALL. Up to 22-36 patients will be enrolled.

This clinical study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of QN-019a in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoma or B-ALL, where a 3+3 enrollment schema will be utilized at dose escalation stage. Up to 24-36 patients will be enrolled.

Inclusion criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria: * Diagnosis of B-cell lymphoma or B-ALL as described below: B-cell Lymphoma: * Histologically documented lymphomas expected to express CD19 and CD20 * Relapsed/refractory disease following at least two prior systemic treatment regimens, or relapsed after the autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) B-ALL: * Diagnosis of B-ALL that expected to express CD19 * Relapsed/refractory disease following prior systemic treatment regimens ALL SUBJECTS: * Provision of signed and dated informed consent form (ICF) * Age ≥ 18 years old * Stated willingness to comply with study procedures and duration * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤1 * Adequate organ function as defined in the protocol * Donor specific antibody (DSA) to QN-019a: MFI \<= 2000 * At least 3 weeks after the last systemic immunochemotherapy treatment * The estimated survival days are expected to be over 3 months Key

Exclusion criteria

ALL SUBJECTS: * Females who are pregnant or lactating * Evidence of insufficient organ function as defined in the protocol * ECOG Performance Status ≥2 * Prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) or allogeneic CAR-T/CAR-NK within 6 months of Day 1, or ongoing requirement for systemic GvHD therapy * Currently receiving or likely to require systemic immunosuppressive therapy * Known active central nervous system (CNS) involvement by malignancy. Non-malignant CNS disease such as stroke, epilepsy, or neurodegenerative disease * Clinically significant cardiovascular disease as defined in the protocol * Known HIV infection, active Hepatitis B (HBV) or Hepatitis C (HCV) infection * Donor specific antibody (DSA) to QN-019a: MFI \> 2000 * Other comorbid conditions and concomitant medications prohibited as per study protocol * Investigator-assessed presence of any medical or social issues that are likely to interfere with study conduct or may cause increased risk to subject

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The incidence of subjects with Dose Limiting Toxicities within each dose level cohortDay 28
Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability]Day 28Incidence, nature, and severity of treatment related adverse events will be evaluated.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progression-free survival (PFS) of QN-019a in combination with Rituximab in r/r B-cell LymphomaUp to approximately 2 years after last dose of QN-019a
Overall survival (OS) of QN-019a as monotherapy in r/r B-ALL and in combination with Rituximab in r/r B-cell LymphomaUp to approximately 2 years after last dose of QN-019a
Objective response rate (ORR) of QN-019a as monotherapy in r/r B-ALL and in combination with Rituximab in r/r B-cell LymphomaFrom baseline tumor assessment up to approximately 2 years after last dose of QN-019a
Event-free survival (EFS) of QN-019a as monotherapy in r/r B-ALLUp to approximately 2 years after last dose of QN-019a
Determination of the pharmacokinetics (PK) of QN-019a cells in peripheral bloodUp to approximately 2 years after last dose of QN-019aThe PK of QN-019a in peripheral blood will be reported as the relative percentage of product (QN-019a) DNA versus patient DNA (% chimerism) measured from blood samples at the specified time points
Duration of response (DOR) of QN-019a as monotherapy in r/r B-ALL and in combination with Rituximab in r/r B-cell LymphomaUp to approximately 2 years after last dose of QN-019a
