Sponsor

M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

Enrollment

20 participants

Start Date

Jan 8, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Follicular Lymphoma

Summary

To learn about the safety of a drug called axicabtagene ciloleucel given in combination with radiation therapy to patients with relapsed/refractory FL.

Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Inclusion Criteria10

Eligible subjects will be considered for inclusion if they meet all of the following criteria:
Men and women 18 years of age or older
Histologically proven FL (Grade 1-3A) on most recent biopsy, history of transformed follicular lymphoma permitted at clinician discretion)
Patients with follicular lymphoma must have disease that has relapsed or is refractory to 2 or more prior lines of systemic therapy
(ECOG) performance status of 0-2
Medically appropriate for CAR-T cell therapy: adequate organ function CrCL >/= 45 mL/min/m2, hemoglobin level ≥ 8 g/dl, serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels ≤ 2.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN) or ≤ 5 x ULN if documented liver involvement, baseline oxygen saturation levels (SpO2) ≥92% on room air
Have at least 1 measurable lesion on imaging, defined as a lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded for non-nodal lesions and short axis for nodal lesions) and ≥1 cm on CT, MRI, or clinical exam.
Prior radiation therapy is permitted provided normal tissue tolerance is not exceeded
Female of child-bearing potential (FOCBP, defined below) must have a negative pregnancy test within 1 week of simulation for RT
Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Exclusion Criteria7

History of other (non B-cell lymphoma) invasive malignancy requiring active therapy (systemic therapy, radiation, or surgery) within the past 3 years, excluding non-melanomatous skin cancer
Women of childbearing potential who are pregnant
Women who are breastfeeding and unwilling to discontinue prior to lymphodepleting chemotherapy and for 12 months following lymphodepleting chemotherapy and CAR-T cell infusion
Urgent need for bridging chemotherapy or rituximab between apheresis and CAR T cell product infusion (steroids permitted)
Additional RT would exceed standard organ at risk constraints
History of severe, immediate hypersensitivity reaction attributed to aminoglycosides
Uncontrolled fungal, bacterial, or viral infection requiring intravenous antimicrobials for management. Urinary tract infection and uncomplicated bacterial pharyngitis is permitted if responding to active treatment. Recent COVID19 infection is permitted if patient is deemed medically stable for CAR-T cell therapy.
