A Phase I/II Study to Evaluate the Safety of Cellular Immunotherapy Using Autologous T Cells Engineered to Express a CD20-Specific Chimeric Antigen Receptor for Patients With Relapsed or Refractory B Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas
United States53 participantsStarted 2017-12-05
Plain-language summary
The purpose of this research is to find the best dose of genetically modified T-cells, to study the safety of this treatment, and to see how well it works in treating patients with B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or did not respond to previous treatment (refractory).

Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients must have B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma. Eligible lymphoma subtypes include (but not limited to): mantle cell, follicular, lymphoplasmacytic, marginal zone, transformed indolent B cell lymphoma (including transformed chronic lymphoid leukemia \[CLL\]), or diffuse large B cell lymphoma that has relapsed after a response to at least one prior therapy regimen or is refractory to prior therapy; patients with mantle cell lymphoma must have previously been treated with a Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor and have either had disease progression, intolerance, or exposure to the drug for at least 3 months; patients with CLL/SLL are eligible if they had disease progression or intolerance to BTKis and/or a BCL-2 inhibitors; they are also required to have been treated with the other agent for at least 3 months (i.e. patients with progression/intolerance to BTKi need to be treated with a BCL-2 inhibitor for at least 3 months, and patients with progression/intolerance to BCL-2 inhibitor need at least 3 months of exposure to a BTKi); patients with de novo diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) must meet one of the following criteria:
* Biopsy-proven refractory disease after a frontline regimen containing both an anthracycline and rituximab or other anti-CD20 antibody (i.e. "primary refractory"), where any disease recurring within 6 months of completion of the regimen is considered refractory
* …
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
