Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Up to 25 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subject eligibility criteria include individuals who are under the age of 25 at the time of SNUH-CD19-CAR-T administration. Confirmation of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia diagnosed at the initial assessment by a treating physician for the first diagnosis is required. Immunophenotypic analysis of CD19 expression on leukemia cells must be confirmed through immune profiling at the time of the initial diagnosis of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. In patients experiencing hematologic relapse of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, CD19 expression should also be confirmed at the time of relapse confirmation.
  • Patients must achieve hematologic complete remission defined as less than 5% blasts in the bone marrow after the first-line or second-line chemotherapy (first salvage therapy). Eligible patients for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, defined by indications for transplantation, include those meeting at least one of the following criteria:
  • Philadelphia chromosome-positive due to t(9;22)(q34;q11) translocation.
  • Hypodiploidy defined by fewer than 44 chromosomes.
  • E2A-HLF gene fusion due to t(17;19) translocation.
  • Detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) positive at 0.01% or higher by next-generation sequencing confirmed after consolidation therapy and maintenance therapy.
  • Failure of the first-line therapy.
  • Cases not meeting any of the above criteria but deemed eligible for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation based on the investigator's judgment.

Who cannot join

  • Patients who have undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
  • Individuals for whom an adequate or sufficient leukapheresis product suitable for the production of SNUH-CD19-CAR-T cannot be obtained or is unavailable.
  • Those known to be infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
  • Presence of uncontrolled active infections, determined by the investigator's assessment. If appropriate treatment has been administered for the infection, and there are no signs of progression at the time of enrollment, it is considered controlled. Persistent fever without other symptoms is not interpreted as progressive infection.
  • Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Individuals deemed clinically inappropriate for participation in the clinical trial based on the investigator's clinical judgment.

About this study

This is a phase 2 clinical trial targeting pediatric and adolescent patients diagnosed with CD19-positive B-ALL, considered very high-risk group. The study aims to administer CD19 CAR-T therapy as an alternative to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in patients eligible for such transplantation. The trial includes patients aged 25 or younger.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • SNUH-CD19-CAR-TGenetic

    CD19 CAR-T is a gene therapy that uses genetically modified autologous peripheral blood T-cells to target CD19 on the surface of B-cells. In this approach using CARs, lymphocytes are genetically manipulated, introducing the chimeric antigen receptor gene into the lymphocytes to combine the function of effector T-cells with antibody-like abilities. The chimeric antigen receptor can recognize cell surface antigens without the need for antigen processing. By using a single-chain variable fragment (scFv) antibody, which combines the variable regions of the heavy chain (VH) and light chain (VL) through a peptide linker of approximately 15 amino acids in length, the CAR gains the ability to bind to tumor antigens.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SNUH-CD19-CAR-T in people with Very High Risk Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and CD19 CAR-T Therapy, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 6 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Feb 2024. 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 South Korea. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Hyoung Jin Kang, Professor (02-2072-3452, kanghj@snu.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Event free survival (time frame: above 3 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 8 Feb 2024.
