Study Summary

This trial will study if it is safe to give patients autologous T cells that have been genetically engineered with a CD19-specific CAR, in combination with ibrutinib, for the treatment of CLL/SLL and as a single agent for the treatment of DLBCL and adult ALL.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with certain blood cancers like CLL, SLL, DLBCL, and ALL. Participants must be in stable condition or partial remission after previous treatments (like ibrutinib for CLL/SLL), have not had prior CD19-directed therapy or genetically engineered cellular products, and can't have specific types of lymphoma or active CNS involvement.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Rapcabtagene autoleucel alone or with Ibrutinib on different blood cancers. It's to see if it's safe and effective. Phase I checks feasibility; phase II assesses how well the treatment works against these cancers.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include immune system reactions, infusion-related symptoms, fatigue, fever, chills, breathing difficulties, changes in blood pressure and heart rate. Specific side effect profiles will be monitored closely.
