A Study of Universal CD19-Targeted UCAR-NK Cells Combined With HSCT for B Cell Hematologic Malignancies

The 920th Hospital of The Joint Logistics Support Force of the Chinese People's Liberation Army

Status and phase: Enrolling; Phase 2; Phase 1

Conditions: B-Cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia/Lymphoma

Treatments: Biological: Anti-CD19 UCAR-NK cells

Study type: Interventional

Funder types: Other

Identifiers

NCT05654038

KM-011

Details and patient eligibility

About

It is a single-center, open-labeled, single-arm, non-randomized investigator-initiated trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of anti-CD19 universal CAR-NK(UCAR-NK) cells therapy combined with HSCT for B cell hematologic malignancies.

Full description

Who can participate? Patients who were diagnosed with B cell hematologic malignancies and tumor cells expressing CD19.

How to conduct this study? This study is an interventional clinical study. The intervention in the trial is anti-CD19 UCAR-NK cells, which belong to chimeric antigen receptor modified NK cells. The administration time is 1-7 days after hematopoietic stem cell infusion. Patients were then evaluated for long-term efficacy and safety until 2 years after UCAR-NK cells infusion.

What are the possible benefits and risks of participating? Benefits: The Dual effect of anti-tumor and anti-infection of NK cells may be used to promote the engraftment of hematopoietic stem cell and better disease control.

Risks: Subjects may have adverse reactions to the treatment. These adverse reactions may include abnormal liver injury, fever, thrombocytopenia, thrombotic microangiopathy, and possibly other unknown adverse reactions.

Enrollment: 30 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 2 to 75 years old
