Study Summary

This trial tests a type of cancer treatment that changes a patient's immune cells in the lab to attack their cancer cells.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 55 or older with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia in first remission can join this trial. They must have a good performance status, proper liver and kidney function, and no severe infections like HIV or hepatitis. Women of childbearing age need a negative pregnancy test and agree to use birth control.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the safety and optimal dose of modified T cells (CD19-CAR T cells) that are designed to target leukemia cells in older adults. It involves taking the patient's own immune cells, modifying them in a lab, growing large numbers, and infusing them back into the patient.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions at infusion site, flu-like symptoms, fatigue, fever, headache, low blood pressure which could lead to dizziness or fainting; there may also be risk for more serious complications affecting different organs.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Has the CD19-CAR T cells therapy attained regulatory consent?

"Due to its Phase 1 status, which corresponds to limited evidence on safety and efficacy, Treatment (CD19-CAR T cells) was rated a score of 1 for overall security."

Answered by AI

Are there any opportunities to register as a participant in this experiment?

"Information found on clinicaltrials.gov affirms that this medical research is not currently seeking patients, although the trial was posted in April of 2023 and last updated a month later. However, there are 1482 other trials actively recruiting at present."

Answered by AI

What primary goals is the trial endeavoring to achieve?

"The primary efficacy measure of this clinical trial is the occurrence of adverse events within 28 days after CD19-chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell infusion. Secondary outcomes examined include Minimal residual disease (MRD) response rate, Event-free survival and Overall survival rate, with assessments conducted using 95% Clopper Pearson binomial confidence intervals (CIs)."
