Overview

This study is a Phase 1 multicenter study with a Dose Escalation and Dose Expansion evaluating safety and efficacy of MT-601 administration to patients with Relapsed or Refractory Lymphoma. The starting dose administered is 200 x 10^6 cells (flat dosing).

Description

This study is a Phase 1, multicenter, open-label study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MT-601 in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) or Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) who either relapsed or had incomplete response after cluster of differentiation (CD) 19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy or are CAR T cell therapy naïve (ineligible or refused CD19-directed CAR T cell therapy or for whom CAR T cell therapy is not available). The study will consist of two portions or phases: 1) Dose Escalation with allowance for backfilling cohorts (up to 50 participants) followed by 2) Dose Expansion at the preliminary RP2DS in 1-2 disease specific cohorts of up to 29 participants each. The Dose Expansion portion of this study will begin after completion of the Dose Escalation portion. The purpose of the Dose Expansion portion of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of MT-601 at the dose determined to be safe in the Dose Escalation portion.
