Study Details

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of genetically engineered cells (CD83 chimeric antigen receptor \[CAR\] T cells) in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). CD83 is a protein that is found on AML blasts. Blasts are abnormal immature white blood cells that can multiply uncontrollably: filling up the bone marrow and preventing the production of other cells important for survival. CD83 CAR T cells represent a new cell therapy to eliminate AML blasts, while avoiding the risk for graft versus host disease (GVHD) after stem cell transplant to replace bone marrow or, tumor toxicity like myeloid aplasia where the body's own immune system causes damage to the bone marrow stem cells. Therefore, human CD83 CAR T cells are a promising cell-based approach to preventing two critical complications of stem-cell transplant - GVHD and relapse. Giving CD83 CAR T cells may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with relapsed or refractory AML.

Arms

  • Experimental: Treatment (fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, CD83 CAR T-cells)
    Patients undergo leukapheresis to obtain PBMCs for CD83 CAR T-cell product manufacturing on day -21 and may receive hydroxyurea at the discretion of the treating physician on study. Patients then receive fludarabine IV over 30 minutes and cyclophosphamide IV over 2 hours on days -5 to -3 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then receive CD83 CAR T-cells IV over 15 minutes on day 0. Patients also undergo ECHO and chest x-ray during screening, blood sample collection throughout the study, and CT and/or PET, as well as lumbar puncture as clinically indicated. In addition, patients may undergo bone marrow aspiration throughout the study.
