Safety, Efficacy and Pharmacokinetics of ThisCART19A in Patients With Refractory or Relapsed B Cell Lymphoma

A Single Dose-escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety, Efficacy and Pharmacokinetics of Allogeneic CAR-T Targeting CD19 in Patients With Refractory or Relapsed B Cell Lymphoma

This is a single dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of ThisCART19A (Allogeneic CAR-T targeting CD19) in patients with refractory or relapsed CD19 positive B cell Lymphoma.

This is a single-center, nonrandomized, open-label, dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of ThisCART19A in patients with refractory or relapsed CD19 positive B cell Lymphoma, such as Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) , follicular lymphoma and etc.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Male or female aged ≥ 18 years old;

2. Histologically confirmed diagnosis per WHO Classification Criteria for Lymphocytic Tumors 2017, including follicular lymphoma (FL), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL, including SMZL, NMZL and extranodal MZL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), etc;

3. Relapsed or refractory B-cell NHL.

4. Adequate treatment :

   1. Follicular lymphoma should be treated with at least two prior treatment including alkylating agents and anti-CD20 mAbs;
   2. Marginal zone lymphoma should be treated with at least two prior treatment including anti-CD20 mAbs;
   3. mantle cell lymphoma should be treated with a first-line therapy including anthracyclines/bendamoxetine+anti-CD20 mAbs;
   4. Diffuse large B lymphoma, not otherwise specified (DLBCL, NOS), high-grade B-cell lymphoma with MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangements (double/triple hit lymphoma, DHL/THL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) transformed from follicular lymphoma (FL), histological grade 3b follicular lymphoma. relapsed or primary refractory lymphoma within 12 months after first-line treatment, first-line therapy including anthracycline and anti-CD20 mAbs.

5. Failing to autologous CAR-T therapy.

6. Estimated life expectancy > 12 weeks deemed by investigator；

7. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1;

8. At least one measurable lesion, with any nodal lesion > 15mm in the longest diameter and any extranodal lesion > 10mm in the longest diameter.

9. Adequate bone marrow, renal, hepatic, pulmonary and cardiac function;

10. Should be confirmed Cluster of differentiation(CD)19 positive by biopsy for the patient who received target CD19 therapy before.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Allergic to preconditioning measures.
2. HP-positive MALT;
3. Patients with risks of deep gastrointestinal ulcers, perforation or gastrointestinal bleeding
4. Patients with other malignancies other than B-cell malignancies within 5 years prior to screening. Patients with cured skin squamous carcinoma, basal carcinoma, non-primary invasive bladder cancer, localized low-risk prostate cancer, in situ cervical/breast cancer can be recruited.
5. Uncontrollable bacterial, fungal and viral infection during screening.
6. Patients had pulmonary embolism (PE) and/or deep vein thrombosis (DVT) within 3 months prior to enrollment.
7. Had intolerant severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and hereditary diseases prior to enrollment.
8. Imaging confirmed the presence of central nervous system involvement (both primary and secondary) and obvious symptoms at the time of screening.

HBV-DNA < 2000 IU/mL can be enrolled, but should admitted to use anti-virus drugs such as entecavir, tenofovir, etc, and supervisory the relative indication during the treatment.
10. Had big lesion(single lesion diameter ≥7.5 cm).
11. Receive allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation less than 100 days.
12. Vaccinated with influenza vaccine within 2 weeks prior to lymphodepleting chemotherapy (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Corona virus disease 19 can be included, inactivated, live/non-live adjuvant vaccinations allowed to be included) .
13. Patients who are receiving Graft versus host disease Hepatitis(GvHD) treatment; Patients without GvHD and who had stopped immunosuppressive drugs for at least 1 month were eligible for inclusion.
