Study Summary

This trial is for infants with SCID who lack a sibling donor. The goal is to provide a conditioning regimen that is well tolerated and provision of immune cells that altogether should establish rapid immune recovery providing protection from life threatening infections without increasing the risk of dangerous Graft-Versus-Host-Disease.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for infants over 2 months old with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) who have a genetic mutation confirmed by DNA sequencing. They need to have a suitable sibling or unrelated donor, or a family member donor that's at least half-matched. Their heart and kidneys must function well, they should be able to breathe without assistance, and their liver enzymes should not be too high.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a transplant method using TCRα/β depletion followed by CD45RA-depleted donor lymphocyte infusions in SCID patients lacking sibling donors. The goal is to establish rapid immune recovery with tolerable conditioning and reduce the risk of Graft-Versus-Host-Disease while monitoring survival rates after one year.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions to anti-thymocyte globulin like fever and chills; chemotherapy-related nausea, vomiting, mouth sores; busulfan can cause seizures; thiotepa might lead to hair loss; risks from the infusion include infection and Graft-Versus-Host Disease.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Donor Lymphocyte InfusionsExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Phase I: On the Phase I portion of the study, up to 4 different dose levels will be evaluated: Dose level -1, Dose ≥0.1 to ≤0.3; Dose level 1, Dose >0.3 to ≤0.56; Dose level 2, Dose >0.56 to ≤1.8; Dose level 3, Dose >1.80 to ≤3.0 Dosing is determined based on the number of CD3+CD45RA-cells/kg and the patient weight in kilograms. Phase II: Participants will receive the Phase I determined maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of DLI. Cells for infusion are prepared using the CliniMACS System.
Group II: TCRα/β/CD19-depleted SCTActive Control5 Interventions
A preparative regimen based on the type of SCID will be given followed by infusion of donor cells. Cells for infusion are prepared using the CliniMACS System Regimen 1 - IL2RG, JAK 3 (Haplocompatible) and all MSD ATG (rabbit) IV Days -9 -8 and -7, Rest Days -6 and -5, Busulfan IV Days -4, -3, and -2, Rest Day -1, TCRα/β/CD19-depleted SCT, Day 0 Regimen 2 - RAG1, RAG2 (Haplocompatible) ATG (rabbit) IV Days -9 -8 and -7, Fludarabine IV Days -7, -6, -5 and -4, Busulfan IV Days -5, -4 and -3, Thiotepa IV twice daily, Day -2, Rest Day -1, TCRα/β/CD19-depleted SCT, Day 0 Regimen 3 - ADA, IL7R, CD45 deficiency, CD3 subunits (Haplocompatible) ATG (rabbit) IV Days -9 -8 and -7, Fludarabine IV Days -7, -6, -5 and -4, Busulfan: IV Days -4, -3 and -2, Rest Day -1, TCRα/β/CD19-depleted SCT, Day 0
