Study Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer treatment - CAR T cells - to see if it's safe and tolerated by patients with T-cell leukemia or lymphoma.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with certain types of T-cell leukemia or lymphoma that have come back or didn't respond to treatment can join. They must be willing to follow the study plan and have a good level of organ function, including kidney, liver, heart, and lungs. Pregnant women, those with active hepatitis B/C or HIV, low lymphocyte counts, or on high-dose steroids are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing CD4CAR T-cells in patients with relapsed/refractory T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. It's an early-phase study (Phase I) looking at how safe it is and if it's feasible to use these engineered cells as treatment. Participants will receive one type of intervention without comparison.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include immune reactions due to cell therapy like fever and fatigue; risk of infection; possible damage to organs where CD4+ cells are present; infusion-related reactions; and other unforeseen complications related to gene therapy.
