MAGENTA Trial Summary

This trial is testing a new way to fight cancer by combining two existing methods, antibodies and T-cells. Antibodies are proteins that protect the body from disease, and T-cells are special blood cells that can kill other cells, including tumor cells.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people under 75 with certain T-cell blood cancers who haven't responded to other treatments. They should have a life expectancy over 12 weeks, be at least two months post-transplant if applicable, and not currently on certain medications or have severe active infections.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests modified T-cells with a special receptor (CD5.CAR/28zeta) designed to target cancer cells in patients with specific types of T-cell leukemia or lymphoma. It's seeing how well these engineered T-cells work and how long they last in the body.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to immune response, such as fever and fatigue, risk of infection due to weakened immunity from the treatment, and possible allergic reactions to mouse protein used in the therapy.

MAGENTA Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Autologous CD5.CAR/28zeta CAR T cells (Group A)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Three dose levels will be evaluated. The T cells will be administered with Cytoxan and fludarabine.If patients have experienced either a partial response or stable disease and completed the 6 week toxicity evaluation without evidence of DLT or other infectious complications, they will be eligible to receive up to 3 additional infusions of CD5 CAR.T cells. Patients remain eligible for up to 3 additional infusions as long as they continue to have a clinical response and absence of safety concerns. If patients experience a complete response following an additional infusion, investigators will recommend they proceed to allogeneic HSCT. Once dose escalation is completed, the trial will be expanded and treat up to an additional 6 patients (2 cohorts) at the MTD in each group to gather additional safety data and preliminary efficacy data.
Group II: Allogeneic CD5.CAR/28zeta CAR T cells (Group B)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Three dose levels will be evaluated. The T cells will be administered with Cytoxan and fludarabine.If patients have experienced either a partial response or stable disease and completed the 6 week toxicity evaluation without evidence of DLT or other infectious complications, they will be eligible to receive up to 3 additional infusions of CD5 CAR.T cells. Patients remain eligible for up to 3 additional infusions as long as they continue to have a clinical response and absence of safety concerns. If patients experience a complete response following an additional infusion, investigators will recommend they proceed to allogeneic HSCT. Once dose escalation is completed, the trial will be expanded and treat up to an additional 6 patients (2 cohorts) at the MTD in each group to gather additional safety data and preliminary efficacy data.
