A Phase Ib, Dose-Escalation Study of Augmented Lymphodepletion and CAR T-cell Priming With Low-dose Total Body Irradiation in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphomas and Multiple Myeloma Receiving Treatment With Commercial CD19 or BCMA-directed CAR T-cell Therapies
Weill Medical College of Cornell University
Summary
This is a clinical trial to evaluate the safety of combining CAR T-cell therapy with low-dose total body irradiation (LD-TBI) in patients with previously treated large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) or multiple myeloma (MM). The investigators' hypothesis is that the combination will make the immune system more active in fighting cancer by increasing the display of antigens and activating pathways that lead to cell death, including death receptors like FAS and TRAIL2. This approach is expected to help the CAR T cells grow and last longer, leading to stronger anti-tumor effects and more cancer cell deaths. Participants will receive LDTBI treatment before their CAR T cell therapy and will be followed up for 2 years.
Description
This is a single-center, open-label, non-randomized, Phase Ib trial evaluating dose escalation of low-dose total body irradiation (LD-TBI) combined with standard-of-care CAR T-cell therapy in patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) or multiple myeloma (MM). The study includes two disease-specific cohorts: Cohort 1 (LBCL) receives commercial CD19-directed CAR T-cell therapy (axicabtagene ciloleucel or lisocabtagene maraleucel), and Cohort 2 (MM) receives commercial BCMA-directed CAR T-cell therapy (ciltacabtagene autoleucel). In CAR T-cell therapy, T-cells are removed…
