Brief summary

Treatment of CMV in a patient with profound combined immunodeficiency, who has viremia and pneumonia, using CMV-specific donor-derived T lymphocytes (CMV-VST).

Detailed description

Treatment of CMV in a patient with profound combined immunodeficiency, who has viremia and pneumonia, using CMV-specific donor-derived T lymphocytes (CMV-VST), a cell therapy product containing a mixture of donor lymphocytes, reactive to peptides derived from cytomegalovirus. After having receipt of therapy, the patient will have clinical assessments twice a week until discharge from the inpatient unit. After discharge, assessments will be performed on a weekly basis for three months. From 3-12 months, the patient will be seen monthly and then every three months till 2 years post planned hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. After 2 years, survival status will be assessed every 6 months through year 15.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Feasibility of studyEnrollment to 24 monthsEvaluate the feasibility of conducting this study, evaluated in terms of whether or not the study could be completed as laid out in the protocol in the time allotted.
Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability]Weekly to 3 monthsAEs assessed according to CTCAE grading criteria.
Efficacy of InterventionWeekly to 3 monthsChange in viremia from baseline according to PCR testing after the intervention

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
DeathEnrollment to 24 monthsDeath of participant
CMV-reactive T cell numberWeekly to 3 monthsThe number of CMV-reactive T cells in the patient's blood will be enumerated using an CMV-ELISpot assay.
Total CMV-reactive T cell activityWeekly to 3 monthsThe total amount of INF γ secreted from all CMV-reactive T cells in the patient's blood to measured using a commercially available ELISA kit (QuantiFERON-CMV). This will allow track the cumulative response to CMV by the reactive T cells over time.
Engraftment failureEnrollment to 24 monthsAssessment of evidence of engraftment failure from clinical evaluations
RNA sequencingWeekly to 3 monthsRNA sequencing, to characterize CMV-reactive T cell biology and track individual VST clones
Serum cytokine analysisWeekly to 3 monthsSerum cytokines, to estimate total CMV-reactive T cell activity and host response to treatment
CMV-reactive T cell phenotypingWeekly to 3 monthsFlow cytometry will be used to characterize CMV-reactive T cell phenotype
Graft versus host diseaseEnrollment to 24 monthsAssessment of evidence of graft versus host disease (GVHD) from clinical evaluations
Transplant associated thrombotic microangiopathyEnrollment to 24 monthsAssessment of evidence of Transplant associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA) from clinical evaluations
