About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Cryopreserved Formulation of Autologous CD34+ Hematopoietic Stem Cells Transduced Ex Vivo With Elongation Factor 1 Alpha Shortened (EFS) Lentiviral Vector Encoding for Human ADA Gene in Subjects With Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Due to ADA Deficiency

This is a prospective, non-randomized, single-cohort, longitudinal, single-center, clinical study designed to assess the efficacy and safety of a cryopreserved formulation of OTL-101 (autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells transduced ex vivo with EFS (Elongation Factor 1α Short form) Lentiviral Vector (LV) encoding for the human ADA gene) administered to ADA-SCID subjects between the ages of 30 days and 17 years of age, who are not eligible for an Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) matched sibling/family donor and meeting the inclusion/exclusion criteria. The OTL-101 product is infused after a minimal interval of at least 24 hours following the completion of reduced intensity conditioning. For subjects who successfully receive the OTL-101 product, pegademase bovine (PEG-ADA) Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT) is discontinued at Day+30 (-3/+15) after the transplant. After their discharge from hospital, the subjects will be seen at regular intervals to review their history, perform examinations and draw blood samples to assess immunity and safety.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Participants With Treatment Efficacy After Treatment With OTL 101 (6 Months)

    Efficacy of OTL-101 treatment at 6 months post OTL-101 infusion based on the following parameters and thresholds:

    1. ADA enzyme activity in erythrocytes above baseline/pretreatment level (i.e., >0 units). ADA enzyme activity is measured to assess the amount of functional gene product produced from the normal ADA transgene delivered by EFS-ADA LV.
    2. Absolute CD3+ T cell counts ≥200 cells/μL. Increase in CD3+ T cell counts is a marker of immune reconstitution.
    3. Granulocyte samples positive for vector sequences by quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) (≥1/10,000 cells). Vector copy number (VCN) in the Peripheral Blood (PB) Granulocytes fraction that was T cell depleted, is a surrogate for amount of engrafted genetically modified Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) that are producing granulocytes every 3-5 days.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Overall Survival (OS) of Subjects Treated With Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) (1 Year)

    Overall survival is defined as the percentage of subjects alive at 12 months post- treatment with cryopreserved OTL-101.

    Measured: 12 Months

  3. Event-free Survival (EvFS) of Subjects Treated With Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) (1 Year)

    Event-free survival is defined as the percentage of subjects alive with no "event", an "event" being the resumption of PEG-ADA ERT or the need for a rescue allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT), or death.

    Measured: 12 Months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. OS of Subjects Treated With Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) (2 Years)

    OS is defined as the percentage of subjects alive at 24 months post- treatment with cryopreserved OTL-101.

    Measured: 24 months

  2. EvFS of Subjects Treated With Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) (2 Years)

    Event-free survival is defined as the percentage of subjects alive with no "event", an "event" being the resumption of PEG-ADA ERT or the need for a rescue allogenic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT), or death.

    Measured: 24 months

  3. Change From Baseline in CD3+ T Cell Counts (2 Years)

    Immune reconstitution was assessed by change in CD3+ T Cell counts over time.

    Measured: 24 months

  4. Severe Infections Excluding First 3 Months After Treatment

    The infections of interest in this study were severe infections or opportunistic infectious episodes, defined as infections requiring hospitalization or prolonging hospitalization and/or documented infections by opportunistic pathogens. Infections that took place in the first 3 months of follow-up post treatment were excluded from calculations to avoid possible bias introduced in the data by the effects of conditioning.

    Measured: 24 months

  5. Change From Baseline in Quality of Life Measures (2 Years)

    Assessment of quality of life was measured by the Lansky Performance Status Scale. The maximum score on the Lansky Performance Scale is 100 - the child is fully active and able to carry on normal activity with no special care needed. The minimum score is 10 - the child is completely disabled, not even passive play. The scores at baseline (pre-treatment with OTL-101) and scores at Month 24 post-treatment with OTL-101 were compared to establish if there were any changes in the child's score in this timeframe.

    Measured: 24 months

  6. Percentage of Patients Who Stopped Immunoglobulin Replacement Therapy (IgRT) (2 Years)

    Use of immunoglobulin replacement therapies prior to and after gene therapy were monitored. Indications for considering the discontinuation of immunoglobulin replacement therapy included: absolute CD4+ >200, absolute B cell >100/μl, IgA or IgM > lower limit of normal for age or gene marking >1% detectable in B cells.

    Measured: 24 months

  7. Time to Cessation of IgRT for Those Who Stopped (2 Years)

    Use of immunoglobulin replacement therapies prior to and after gene therapy were monitored. For subjects who stopped IgRT during the study, the time of cessation was recorded.

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Infusion of autologous cryopreserved EFS-ADA LV CD34+ cells (OTL-101), busulfan and PEG-ADA ERT in people with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Due to ADA Deficiency, run by University of California, Los Angeles at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 39 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 Jul 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants With Treatment Efficacy After Treatment With OTL 101 (6 Months) (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02999984, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Aug 2022.
