CYCLE-1 Trial Summary

This trial is testing an experimental cancer treatment on patients who have relapsed or are unresponsive to other treatments. The goal is to find the recommended dose of the treatment and to see if it helps patients. A maximum of 27 patients will be enrolled in the trial.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who can't have standard treatments. They must have had prior therapy, adequate liver and kidney function, a decent heart pump function, and acceptable lung capacity. Those with high blast counts in blood or central nervous system tumor history are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and optimal dose of CYAD-02 after preconditioning chemotherapy with ENDOXAN and Fludara in AML/MDS patients. It's an early-phase trial aiming to enroll up to 27 participants without dose-limiting toxicities.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to immune cell infusion such as fever, fatigue, bone pain; effects from chemotherapy like nausea, hair loss; organ inflammation; increased risk of infection due to low blood cell counts.

CYCLE-1 Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Dose Escalation Dose Level 3Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
in case of no dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and no replacement of patients,3 consecutive patients at the dose of 1x10e9 of CYAD-02 per infusion post preconditioning non-myeloablative chemotherapy according to a 3+3 study design. The preconditioning therapy consists of 3 consecutive days of cyclophosphamide (300 mg/m²/day) and fludarabine (30 mg/m²/day), two days before the CYAD-02 infusion. In case of no progression at D22, the patient is eligible to receive a consolidation cycle of 3 additional CYAD-02 infusion at the same dose level, without prior preconditioning chemotherapy.
Group II: Dose Escalation Dose Level 2Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
in case of no dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and no replacement of patients,3 consecutive patients at the dose of 3x10e8 of CYAD-02 per infusion post preconditioning non-myeloablative chemotherapy according to a 3+3 study design. The preconditioning therapy consists of 3 consecutive days of cyclophosphamide (300 mg/m²/day) and fludarabine (30 mg/m²/day), two days before the CYAD-02 infusion. In case of no progression at D22, the patient is eligible to receive a consolidation cycle of 3 additional CYAD-02 infusion at the same dose level, without prior preconditioning chemotherapy.
Group III: Dose Escalation Dose Level 1Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
in case of no dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and no replacement of patients, 3 consecutive patients at the dose of 1x10e8 of CYAD-02 per infusion post preconditioning non-myeloablative chemotherapy according to a 3+3 study design. The preconditioning therapy consists of 3 consecutive days of cyclophosphamide (300 mg/m²/day) and fludarabine (30 mg/m²/day), two days before the CYAD-02 infusion. In case of no progression at D22, the patient is eligible to receive a consolidation cycle of 3 additional CYAD-02 infusion at the same dose level, without prior preconditioning chemotherapy.
