Study Summary

This trial is testing a new treatment for lymphoma that involves modifying a patient's T cells so that they will attack the cancer. There are risks associated with the treatment and with the study procedures, but the hope is that this will be an effective treatment for those who have relapsed or are refractory to other treatments.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with CD30+ peripheral T-cell lymphoma who've had at least two prior treatments, or relapsed within a year after therapy or transplant. Candidates must have a Karnofsky score above 60%, indicating they can care for themselves. Pregnant women and those with active infections like HIV or hepatitis are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests ATLCAR.CD30 T cells, which are the patient's own immune cells modified to target lymphoma cancer cells. Participants will undergo chemotherapy (Fludarabine, Cyclophosphamide, Bendamustine) before receiving these engineered T cells. Some may get a second infusion if they respond well and there are extra modified cells available.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Risks include infection, fever, nausea, vomiting, neurotoxicity (nerve damage symptoms), and cytokine release syndrome which might cause low blood pressure or breathing difficulties. Procedures like biopsies could also pose risks such as bleeding or pain.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Progression free survival (PFS) after administration of the ATLCAR.CD30 in subjects with relapsed/refractory CD30+ peripheral T cell lymphoma
Secondary outcome measures
Best overall response rate (BOR) mediated by the ATLCAR.CD30 product administered in subjects with relapsed/refractory CD30+ peripheral T cell lymphoma
Antigens, CD30
Incidence of Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) (safety and tolerability) when administering two sequential infusions of the ATLCAR.CD30 product in subjects with relapsed/refractory CD30+ peripheral T cell lymphoma

Experimental Treatment
Group I: ATLCAR.CD30 cellsExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
The cellular product consisting of ATLCAR.CD30 cells will be administered via intravenous injection over 5 - 10 minutes through either a peripheral or a central line. The volume of infusion will depend upon the concentration of the cells when frozen and the size of the subject. Administration to eligible subjects will occur within 2 - 14 days after completing the lymphodepleting chemotherapy regimen

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Does this research encompass adults aged 60 and over?

"This medical study is accepting candidates who are of legal age and younger than 99."

Answered by AI

Are more patients needed for this investigation?

"Per the clinicaltrials.gov database, this trial is still recruiting patients; it was initially advertised on September 17th 2019 and had its information most recently updated on March 4th 2022."

Answered by AI

What are the eligibility criteria for participation in this clinical experiment?

"This clinical trial requires 20 individuals, aged between 18 and 99 with a diagnosis of T-Cell Lymphoma. To be eligible for participation, participants must consent to the written informed consent and HIPAA authorization release of private medical information, have Karnofsky score higher than 60%, possess histological or cytological evidence/confirmation that their lymphoma is CD30+, received at least two prior lines of therapy which included brentuximab vedotin unless ineligibility has been proven, relapsed after autologous stem cell transplantation if applicable within 180 days from allogeneic stem cell transplantation without active signs of"

Answered by AI

Is ATLCAR.CD30 T cells a secure option for individuals?

"Taking into account the fact that this is a Phase 2 trial, which implies there is evidence of safety but no proof of efficacy yet, our team at Power rated ATLCAR.CD30 T cells as having an overall safety score of 2."

Answered by AI

How many participants are being recruited for this research endeavor?

"Affirmative. Per clinicaltrials.gov's records, this research endeavour was initially posted on September 17th 2019 and is currently recruiting participants. Only 20 patients are needed to be enrolled from two different medical facilities."

Answered by AI

Are there any precedents of utilizing ATLCAR.CD30 T cells in prior clinical experiments?

"Currently, 946 medical trials related to ATLCAR.CD30 T cells are underway worldwide; 176 of these studies have entered Phase 3 and the majority originate from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In total, there are 32473 unique clinical sites running such tests."

Answered by AI

What maladies is ATLCAR.CD30 T cell therapy typically employed for?

"ATLCAR.CD30 T cells is a medical intervention that can assist those with multiple sclerosis and other ailments like leukemia, myelocytic, acute, retinoblastoma and multiple myeloma."
