- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status <2 (Karnofsky >60%).
- Individuals with treated brain metastases are eligible if follow-up brain imaging after central nervous system (CNS)-directed therapy shows no evidence of progression.
- Individuals with new or progressive brain metastases (active brain metastases) or leptomeningeal disease are eligible if the treating physician determines that immediate CNS specific treatment is not required and is unlikely to be required during the first cycle of therapy.
- Individuals with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment does not have the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen are eligible for this trial. The effects of 64Cu-GRIP B on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason, participants of childbearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception: all participants should use barrier protection for the duration of study participation and for one month after last administration of study intervention. Should a participant become pregnant or suspect they are pregnant while they or their partner are participating in this study, they should inform their treating physician immediately. Male participants treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree to use adequate contraception prior to the study, for the duration of study participation, and one month after last administration of study treatment.
Who cannot join
- Any condition that, in the opinion of the Principal Investigator, would impair the participant's ability to comply with study procedures.
- Pregnant participants are excluded from this study because the effects of 64Cu-GRIP B on the developing human fetus are unknown. There is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the nursing parent with 64Cu-GRIP B, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the nursing parent receives 64Cu-GRIP B.
- Hypersensitivity to 64Cu-GRIP B or any of its excipients.

About this study
Official title: A Phase I/Ib PET Imaging Study of 64Cu-GRIP B, a Radiotracer Targeting Granzyme B, in Patients Receiving CD19-directed CAR-T Therapy
This is a phase I/Ib imaging study of granzyme B, 64-copper granzyme targeting restricted interaction peptide specific to family member B (64Cu-GRIP B) Positron Emission Tomography (PET) in patients with relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) receiving CD19-directed Chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T) therapy. The proposed study represents the first-ever lymphoma patient imaging studies with 64Cu-GRIP B PET. The tracer is designed to detect extracellular granzyme B as it is secreted by activated immune cells in the tumor microenvironment, which may highlight tumors that will exhibit a durable response to Cluster of Differentiation 19 (CD19)-directed CAR T-cell therapy.
Read the detailed description
Primary Objectives:
- To establish the feasibility of granzyme B detection with 64Cu-GRIP B PET in participants with relapsed/refractory NHL receiving CD19-directed CAR-T cell therapy in both cohorts.
Secondary Objectives:
- To descriptively report the patterns of intra-tumoral uptake of 64Cu-GRIP B on whole body PET, including by site of disease, uptake by tumor type, inter-tumoral and inter-participant heterogeneity, and tumor-to-background signal in participants with participants with NHL.
- To descriptively report the number of lesions identified on 64Cu-GRIP B PET compared with conventional imaging in participants with NHL.
- To assess the safety of 64Cu-GRIP B in participants with NHL undergoing CAR-T cell therapy.
Participants will be initially enrolled in Cohort 1. Based on the interim analysis, enrollment will begin in Cohort 2. An optional research biopsy will be collected after the post-therapy scan and participants will be followed for 12 months after the end of the study intervention.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Proportion of positive tumors at the post-CAR-T scan
The proportion of known lesions with detectable radiotracer uptake on conventional imaging will be reported along with 95% binomial exact confidence intervals. Tumors will be defined as positive if they are focally avid with maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) >1.5 fold above adjacent background.
Measured: From prior to CAR-T to Day 22 following CAR-T cell, approximately 32 days total
Secondary outcomes (4)
Mean SUVmax by disease site
The mean/sd (median and range, if normality assumption does not hold) for intra-tumoral SUVmax within lesions will be descriptively reported, to assess for intra-tumoral heterogeneity and differences in uptake by site of disease.
Measured: From prior to CAR-T to Day 22 following CAR-T cell, approximately 32 days total
Overall Mean SUVmax by cohort
The mean/sd (median and range, if normality assumption does not hold) for inter-participant SUVmax within lesions will be descriptively reported, to assess for inter-participant heterogeneity and differences in uptake.
Measured: From prior to CAR-T to Day 22 following CAR-T cell, approximately 32 days total
Percent of lymphoma lesions detected
The percentage of lesions detected on conventional imaging that are detected on baseline 64Cu-GRIP B PET will be descriptively reported.
Measured: From prior to CAR-T to Day 22 following CAR-T cell, approximately 32 days total
Frequency and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events
Frequency and severity of treatment adverse events following 64Cu-GRIP B injection classified according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE v 5.0).
Measured: Up to 13 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing 64Cu-GRIP B, Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Optional tumor biopsy in people with Non Hodgkin Lymphoma, run by Michael Randall 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 10 inclusion and 3 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 29 Dec 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 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 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.
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 UCSF Hematopoietic Malignancies Clinical Trial Recruitment (877-827-3222, HDFCCC.Heme@ucsf.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Proportion of positive tumors at the post-CAR-T scan (time frame: From prior to CAR-T to Day 22 following CAR-T cell, approximately 32 days total). 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 29 Dec 2025.
