CASEY Trial Summary

This trial is for patients with lymph gland diseases like Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. The study focuses on using special infection-fighting blood cells called T cells to target cancer cells

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with certain lymph gland diseases, including Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, T/NK-lymphoproliferative disease, who have not responded well to existing treatments. It's particularly aimed at those whose cancer cells show signs of the Epstein Barr virus (EBV), which is linked to these conditions.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a new gene therapy using modified T cells that target EBV-infected tumor cells. These T cells are engineered with a C7R gene to help them survive longer and potentially improve their ability to fight the cancer. The goal is to determine the safest high dose and its effectiveness against the cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, similar therapies can cause immune reactions, flu-like symptoms, fatigue, fever, and in some cases more severe complications related to how the body responds to genetically modified T-cells.

Group I: Treatment Arm AExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients will initially be consented for procurement of blood for generation of the transduced T-cells. Three dose levels will be evaluated and a possible dose level -1 in case of unexpected toxicity at dose level 1. Each patient will receive one T cell infusion.
