Allogenic CD19-targeting CAR-γδT Cell Therapy in R/R NHL

Summary

This is a single center, prospective, open-label, single-arm, phase 1/2 study for patients with r/r B-cell NHL to evaluate the safety and efficacy of gene edited allogenic CD19 CAR-γδT cells. The cells are from healthy adult volunteer donors that are gene edited ex vivo using CRISPR-Cas9 to weaken HLA expression and further to overcome host immune system rejection (HvGR). In this study, a second generation anti-CD19 CAR prototype was constructed, bearing murine FMC63 single-chain variant fragment (scFv) together with intracellular 4-1BB co-stimulatory and CD3ζ signaling domains linked by a CD8α sequence comprising the hinge and transmembrane domains. A total of around 30 patients with r/r B-cell NHL will be enrolled in the study and receive allogeneic CD19 CAR-γδT cell infusion. Phase 1 (n=9 to 12) is dose escalation part, and phase 2 (n=15 to 20) is expansion cohort part. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of allogeneic CD19 CAR-γδT cell therapy in patients with r/r B-cell NHL.
