About

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of BSB-2002 when given after cyclophosphamide and fludarabine and tests how well it works in treating NPM1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). BSB-2002 is a type of personalized autologous T cell receptor-modified T cell therapy. T cells are infection fighting blood cells that can kill cancer cells. The T cells given in this study come from the patient and have a new gene put in them that makes them able to recognize mutated NPM1, a protein on the surface of cancer cells. These NPM1 mutated-specific T cells may help the body's immune system identify and kill NPM1-mutated AML cells. Giving chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and fludarabine, before BSB-2002 helps kill cancer cells in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow. Giving BSB-2002 after cyclophosphamide and fludarabine may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating relapsed or refractory AML in patients with NPM1 mutation.

Full description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. Evaluate the safety of BSB-2002.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Cellular kinetics of BSB-2002 in peripheral blood through day 365. II. Evaluate the efficacy of BSB-2002 based on IIa. Percentage of patients with complete remission (CR; including CR with measurable residual disease negative [CRMRD-], CR, CR with incomplete hematologic recovery [CRi], CR with partial hematologic recovery [CRh]) or partial remission (PR) as determined by the investigator according to the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) criteria for AML; IIb. Overall survival; IIc. Duration of response (time from first tumor assessment at which the overall response was recorded as CR/CRi / CRi, CRh [AML]) until documented relapse, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. Assess molecular minimal residual disease (MRD) as measured by mutation specific next generation sequencing (NGS).

II. Evaluate inflammatory cytokines and other potential biomarkers.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of BSB-2002 in combination with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine.

Patients undergo leukapheresis between days -45 and -21 for manufacturing of BSB-2002. Patients then receive cyclophosphamide intravenously (IV) and fludarabine IV on days -5 to -3 followed by BSB-2002 IV over 30 minutes on day 0 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Additionally, patients undergo blood sample collection as well as bone marrow aspiration and possible biopsy throughout the study. Patients also undergo echocardiography during screening.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at days 4, 7, 10, 14, 21, 28, 56, 90, 180, 270, and 365 and then yearly for up to 15 years.
