Brief summary
JWCAR239 is a CD19/CD20 CAR-T product. This trial is intended to evaluate the safety, PK/PD and efficacy of JWCAR239 in patients with B Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (B-NHL)
Detailed description
JWCAR239 is a CD19/CD20 CAR-T product. By targeting both CD19 and CD20, it is expected to overcome some limitations with CD19 or CD20 single target products. In this study, patients with B B-NHL will be enrolled to receive JWCAR239. PK/PD properties and preliminary efficacy and safety will be evaluated. Each subject will receive JWCAR239 once and is followed up for up to 2 years.
Interventions

Non-abstinent female subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use a highly effective contraceptive method plus an additional barrier method from at least 28 days before lymphodepletion until 2 years after JWCAR239 infusion. Male subjects with fertile partners must agree to use effective contraception from at least 28 days before lymphodepletion until 2 years after JWCAR239 infusion and must not donate semen or sperm throughout the study.
Exclusion criteria
1. Lymphoma involving the central nervous system (CNS). 2. EBV-positive DLBCL or Richter transformation of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. 3. History of other malignant tumors with complete remission for less than 2 years, or current presence of other malignant tumors (exceptions to the 2-year restriction include: basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, treated localized prostate cancer, biopsy-confirmed cervical in situ carcinoma, or cervical smears showing squamous intraepithelial lesions, or completely resected tumors with low recurrence potential as assessed by the investigator). 4. At screening, the subject has: Active hepatitis B or C (subjects with HBV DNA or HCV RNA below the lower limit of the central reference value by PCR may be enrolled). For occult or prior HBV-infected subjects, prophylactic antiviral therapy and regular monitoring of HBV-DNA are required. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or syphilis infection. 5. Acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) (tumor thrombus or thrombus) or pulmonary embolism (PE) within 3 months prior to informed consent signing. 6. Receiving anticoagulant therapy for acute DVT or PE within 3 months prior to informed consent signing (prophylactic treatment ). 7. Uncontrolled systemic fungal, bacterial, viral, or other infections. 8. Acute or chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). 9. History of any of the following cardiovascular diseases within the past 6 months: New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV heart failure, coronary angioplasty or stenting, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, or other clinically significant heart diseases. 10. Clinically significant CNS disease or symptoms at screening or within the past 6 months, such as epilepsy, seizures, paralysis, aphasia, stroke, severe brain injury, dementia, Parkinson's disease, cerebellar disease, organic brain syndrome, or psychiatric disorders. 11. Pregnant or lactating women. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 48 hours before starting lymphodepletion chemotherapy. 12. Use of any of the following drugs or treatments within the specified time before leukapheresis: Alemtuzumab within 6 months before leukapheresis. Bendamustine within 6 months before leukapheresis. Cladribine within 3 months before leukapheresis. Fludarabine within 3 months before leukapheresis. Anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies within 7 days before leukapheresis. Venetoclax within 4 days before leukapheresis. Idelalisib within 2 days before leukapheresis. Lenalidomide within 1 day before leukapheresis. Pharmacological doses of corticosteroids (defined as prednisone \>5 mg/day or equivalent) within 7 days before leukapheresis or within 72 hours before JWCAR239 injection. Physiological replacement, topical, and inhaled steroids are permitted. Chemotherapy (e.g., vincristine, rituximab, cyclophosphamide) required to control the disease after leukapheresis must have been discontinued ≥7 days before lymphodepletion chemotherapy.
