Trial Summary

Will I have to stop taking my current medications?

The trial information does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. However, since the treatment involves chemotherapy and cell therapy, it's possible that some medications might need to be adjusted. Please consult with the trial coordinators for specific guidance.

What data supports the effectiveness of the treatment JCAR017 (Lisocabtagene maraleucel) for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma?

Research shows that Lisocabtagene maraleucel, a type of CAR T-cell therapy, has been effective in treating large B-cell lymphoma, a type of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. In a study, 73% of patients responded to the treatment, with 53% achieving complete remission, and 58% of patients survived for at least a year.12345

Is lisocabtagene maraleucel (JCAR017) safe for humans?

Lisocabtagene maraleucel (JCAR017) has been shown to have a manageable safety profile in clinical trials for large B-cell lymphoma, but it can cause serious side effects like cytokine release syndrome (a severe immune reaction) and neurological issues. Patients need to be closely monitored for at least seven days after receiving the treatment.12467

How is the treatment JCAR017 unique for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma?

JCAR017, also known as Lisocabtagene maraleucel or Liso-cel, is a unique treatment for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma because it is a CAR T-cell therapy that targets CD19 and is manufactured by separately processing CD4 and CD8 T cells, which are then administered in equal doses. This approach aims to balance efficacy and safety, offering a promising option for patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphomas.12367

What is the purpose of this trial?

This is a global Phase 2, open-label, single-arm, multicohort, multicenter study to evaluate efficacy and safety of JCAR017 in adult subjects with r/r FL or MZL.The study will be conducted in compliance with the International Council on Harmonisation (ICH) of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use/Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and applicable regulatory requirements.This study is divided into three periods:* Pretreatment, which consists of screening assessments, leukapheresis and the Pretreatment evaluation;* Treatment, which starts with the administration of lymphodepleting (LD) chemotherapy and continues through JCAR017 administration at Day 1 with follow-up through Day 29;* Posttreatment, which includes follow-up assessments for disease status and safety for 5 years.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Administration of JCAR017Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
* Subjects will be treated with fludarabine IV (30 mg/m2/day for 3 days) and cyclophosphamide IV (300 mg/m2/day for 3 days) prior to JCAR017 infusion. Refer to the most recent package inserts for further details on administration of these agents. * JCAR017 will be infused on Day 1 at a target dose of 100 × 10\^6 CAR-positive viable T cells (CAR+ T cells), 2 to 7 days after completion of LD chemotherapy. Each JCAR017 dose includes CD4+ CAR+ T cells and CD8+ CAR+ T cells.

Findings from Research

In a study involving 344 patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphomas, lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) demonstrated a high objective response rate of 73%, with 53% achieving a complete response, indicating its efficacy as a treatment option.
The safety profile of liso-cel was acceptable, with a low incidence of severe cytokine release syndrome (2%) and neurological events (10%), suggesting it can be safely administered to patients with various high-risk features.
Lisocabtagene maraleucel for patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphomas (TRANSCEND NHL 001): a multicentre seamless design study.Abramson, JS., Palomba, ML., Gordon, LI., et al.[2021]
Lisocabtagene Maraleucel (Liso-cel) is a promising CAR-T therapy targeting CD19, showing strong antitumor activity in aggressive B-cell lymphomas with manageable toxicity, as confirmed in the TRANSCEND NHL001 trial.
Preclinical studies indicate that a specific ratio of CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells enhances the effectiveness of Liso-cel, suggesting a well-balanced approach to maximizing both efficacy and safety in treatment.

Lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) is an effective CAR T cell therapy for relapsed or refractory large B cell lymphoma, showing a 73% objective response rate and a 53% complete remission rate in a study of 344 patients.
The treatment demonstrated a 12-month overall survival rate of 58% for all patients and 86% for those who achieved complete remission, although it was associated with adverse events such as cytokine release syndrome (42%) and neurological issues (30%).
