Overview

This study is being done to learn more about the short-term and long-term side effects of CAR-T cell therapy. Specifically, researchers want to know how often patients get infections, have delays in recovering blood cell counts and/or have damage to the nervous system.

Description

Primary Objectives

  • Bone Marrow Function: To report on the incidence, timing, severity of, and risk factors for bone marrow dysfunction in participants in remission or without bone marrow involvement of disease at 3- and 6-months following CAR T cell therapy. (B-ALL cohort)
  • Infection/Immune Reconstitution: To evaluate the incidence, timing, severity of and risk factors for clinically significant infections following CAR T cell therapy at 3- and 6-months following CAR T cell therapy. (B-ALL cohort)
  • Neurotoxicity: To evaluate the incidence, timing, severity of, and risk factors for persistent ICANS at 3- and 6-months post CAR T cell therapy. (B-ALL cohort)

Secondary Objectives

  • To evaluate bone marrow function, infection/immune reconstitution, and neurotoxicity at 12 months and 24 months post CAR T cell therapy in participants with B-ALL.
  • To characterize bone marrow function, infection/immune reconstitution, and neurotoxicity between 3 and 24 months after CAR T cell therapy in other hematologic malignancies and solid tumor cohorts.

Participants will have an assessment of preexisting morbidity and potential risk factors, collection of specimens for banking, scheduled late effects monitoring, laboratory analysis, and screening studies. Data and biospecimens will be collected at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years after CAR T cell infusion.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participants must have received an initial systemically-administered CAR T cell infusion within the last 1-3 months (+/- 14 days).
    • Initial infusion is defined as the first administration of a CAR T cell product the participant has not previously received OR receipt of a CAR T cell product previously received after an interval allogeneic HSCT.
  • Age ≤ 30 years at CAR T cell infusion.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Active malignancy other than the disease under study.
  • Planned consolidative HSCT within 3 months post CAR T cell infusion.
  • Received or planned additional disease directed therapy post CAR T cell infusion.
  • Inability or unwillingness of research participant or legal guardian/representative to give written informed consent.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
