Study Summary

This trial is testing a new treatment for people with cancer that has come back or didn't respond to other treatments. They are testing how safe and effective it is.

Who is the study for?
Adults with certain types of B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia that have relapsed or are refractory. They must understand the study, be willing to use contraception, and meet health criteria including organ function and performance status. Excluded are those with recent significant heart disease, active autoimmune diseases needing steroids, HIV positive individuals, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and those with other progressing cancers.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing genetically modified T-cells targeting CD20 in patients with specific B cell malignancies. It aims to determine the optimal dose for safety and effectiveness. The process includes leukapheresis (to collect white blood cells), followed by laboratory biomarker analysis, chemotherapy conditioning (with Cyclophosphamide and Fludarabine Phosphate), then infusion of engineered T-cells.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to immune system activation such as fever and fatigue; complications from low blood counts like infections; possible damage to organs targeted by the modified T-cells; infusion-related reactions; and general discomfort from chemotherapy drugs.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (CD20-specific CAR T cell, chemotherapy)Experimental Treatment5 Interventions
Patients undergo leukapheresis and may receive treatment after if needed for disease control. Patients then receive cyclophosphamide IV. Patients may also receive fludarabine IV. After 36-96 hours, patients receive CD20-specific CAR T cell infusion IV over 20-30 minutes.
