Study Summary

This trial studies the safety and effectiveness of radiation therapy before CAR T-cell therapy for large B-cell lymphoma patients with large tumors.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with large B-cell lymphoma who have a lesion at least 5 cm big and are fit enough to undergo radiation therapy. They must not be pregnant, agree to use contraception, and cannot have HIV or active hepatitis. Those previously treated with CAR T-cell therapy or having heart issues, uncontrolled infections, or requiring steroids/immunosuppressants can't join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and effectiveness of comprehensive bridging radiation therapy before CD19 CAR T-cell treatment in patients with bulky disease. It's an open-label phase 2 trial where all participants receive both treatments sequentially.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to radiation like skin irritation and fatigue, as well as those from CAR T-cell therapy such as flu-like symptoms, difficulty breathing, confusion, weakness on one side of the body, trouble speaking or thinking clearly.

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Radiation Therapy and CAR T-Cell InfusionExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Following T-cell apheresis for CD19 CAR T-cell therapy, eligible enrolled study participants patients will undergo Comprehensive Ablative Bridging Irradiation (CABI) to all pretreatments lesions that are able to be feasibly and safely treated by the treating radiation oncologist. Upon completion of bridging radiotherapy, patients will undergo lymphodepleting chemotherapy period (Days -5, -4, -3) followed by axi-cel infusion (Day 0).
