Information is also accessible through the patient and families tab. Family friendly summaries are created and reviewed by our advocacy partners. The information is updated to the best of our knowledge but might not reflect the latest information. Note that most studies are only available at a limited number of sites, please click on ‘further information’ for details. Studies, particularly early phase trials, may also temporarily close to enrolment or not have slots available for all treatment groups. In all cases, study teams at individual C17 centres will have the most up-to-date information.

Study Description

 This study is eligible for STEP-1 funding. Find more information here

 

This is a phase I dose-finding trial of an autologous CD22 targeting chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell product, called CLIC-2201, for participants with relapsed/refractory B cell malignancies. In the proposed trial, eligible enrolled participants will undergo leukapheresis for autologous T cell collection to enable CLIC-2201 manufacturing, followed by lymphodepletion with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine, then intravenous infusion of the autologous CLIC-2201 product. The trial will use the 3+3 design to escalate or de-escalate the dose level of CLIC-2201 administered. Participants will be monitored for safety and tolerability up to day 365 following CLIC-2201 infusion.

The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of CLIC-2201 and estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CLIC-2201 in B-cell malignancies.

The secondary objectives are to evaluate the (i) feasibility; (ii) anti-tumour activity of CLIC-2201; (iii) and characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of CLIC-2201.

Exploratory objectives will include: i) characterizing the cellular and humoral immune responses against CLIC-2201 up to 1 year following infusion of CLIC-2201; (ii) characterizing the phenotype and gene expression profile of CLIC-2201 cells; (iii) evaluating immune and tumour cells at baseline and relapse for biomarkers of response or toxicity; (iv) evaluating serum cytokines, circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) and B cell aplasia as biomarkers of clinical outcomes; and (v) assessing the quality of life.

Inclusion Criteria

Cohort A (B cell lymphoma):

  • Participants in the cohort A must be 18 years of age or older of age at time of informed consent.
  • Participants must provide written informed consent. The investigator is responsible for obtaining written informed assent/consent for the subject after adequate explanation of the study design, anticipated benefits and the potential risks. Subjects should sign the most current REB approved assent/consent prior to any study specific activity or procedure is performed. (Sites will follow their REB board requirements for consenting).
  • Participants must have a relapsed or refractory B cell lymphoma, including one of the following:
    • diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) not otherwise specified (NOS)
    • high grade B cell lymphoma NOS
    • grade B cell lymphoma with MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangements
    • primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL)
    • aggressive B cell lymphoma transformed from an indolent lymphoma
    • mantle cell lymphoma (MCL)
  • Participants must have refractory or relapsed disease, defined as one of the following:
    • Relapse or refractory disease after at least 2 lines of therapy, OR
    • Any relapse after autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), OR
    • Any relapse after CAR-T cell therapy
  • Participants must have adequate organ function at enrolment, defined as:
    • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥40%,
    • Creatinine clearance using Cockcroft-Gault of > 30 mL/min, AND
    • ALP/ALT < 5X upper limit of normal (ULN), conjugated bilirubin < 2X ULN, and no evidence or history of liver cirrhosis.
  • Participants must have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of ≤ 2 or Karnofsky Score ≥50%.
  • Females of child-bearing potential and sexually active males must agree to use a highly effective contraception method (see section 5.4) through to at least one year following administration of the CLIC-2201 product.
  • Participants with accessible disease, willingness to undergo a tumour biopsy at enrolment. For participants with a recent (within 3 months) tumor biopsy, access to the archival biopsy is acceptable.

Cohort B (B-ALL):

  • Participants in the cohort B must be between 1-21 years of age at the time of consent.
  • Parent or legal guardian of the participant signed the informed consent and the participant's assent/consent is obtained (if applicable). The investigator is responsible for obtaining written informed assent/consent for the subject or legally acceptable representative (e.g. parent, legal guardian) after adequate explanation of the study design, anticipated benefits and the potential risks. Subjects should sign the most current REB approved assent/consent prior to any study specific activity or procedure is performed. (Sites will follow their REB board requirements for consenting).
  • Participants must have a relapsed or refractory B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL)
  • Participants must have refractory or relapsed disease, defined as one of the following:
    • Relapse or refractory disease after at least 2 lines of therapy, OR
    • Any relapse after autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), OR
    • Any relapse after CAR-T cell therapy.
  • Participants in cohort B and/or those who have received CD22 targeted therapy must have documentation of CD22 tumour expression within the 6 months prior to study screening, and after any prior CD22 directed therapy (if applicable).
  • Participants must have adequate organ function at enrolment, defined as:
    • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥45%,
    • Creatinine clearance using Cockcroft-Gault or Schwartz equation of > 30 mL/min, AND
    • ALP/ALT < 5X upper limit of normal (ULN), conjugated bilirubin < 2X ULN, and no evidence or history of liver cirrhosis.
  • Participants must have a Karnofsky or Lansky Score ≥50%.
  • Participants in reproductive age must agree to use a highly effective contraception method (see section 5.4) through to at least one year following administration of the CLIC-2201 product.
  • Participants willingness to undergo a bone marrow biopsy at enrolment.
