About this study

This is a multi-centers, single-arm, open label, Phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CD7 CAR T cells in subjects with relapsed or refractory T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. Seventy subjects will be enrolled. CD7 CAR T cells will be given once intravenously at one dose (1×106, with an allowance of ± 20%) in patients received previous HSCT donor-derived CAR T cells. Patients who received fresh donor derived CD7 CAR T cells were given initial dose of 1×106, with an allowance of ± 20%. The dose levels may be adjusted during the study based on the specific number of cells on the day of fresh CAR T cells infusion, due to at this time all the patients have completed lymphodepleting, so we adopt the allowance of ±20% for each group of absolute infusion cells. And patients who were lower than the designed dose group were also given infusion, but they will be either assigned to the lower dose group or exclude from safety analysis of designed dose group.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing chimeric antigen receptor T cell treatment in people with T-cell Leukemia/Lymphoma and Refractory T Lymphoblastic Leukemia/Lymphoma, run by Beijing Boren Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 8 inclusion and 14 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 18 May 2025. 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 China. 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 phase mean?

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Efficacy: Best overall response (BOR) rate (time frame: at 3 months). 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 NCT04689659, which also lists 3 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 18 May 2025.
