What to Expect as a Participant

You will actively receive the study intervention — which may be a drug, biologic, device, or procedure.

Phase 1 is the earliest stage of human testing — safety and dosage are the primary focus. Visits are frequent and medical supervision is intensive. You will be among the first people to receive this treatment.

This trial targets 54 participants in total. It began in 2025-03-31 with a primary completion date of 2030-03.

Brief Summary

This multicenter phase 1 trial with "3 + 3" dose escalation design seeks to examine the feasibility and safety of the administration of autologous T cells that have been modified through the introduction of chimeric antigen receptors targeting the B cell surface antigens CD19/20/22 following administration of a chemotherapy lymphodepletion regimen in adults with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). The overall goals of this study are to estimate maximum tolerated dose (MTD) level, establish the overall safety profile and evaluate initial efficacy of administering duo-CAR-T cell treatment in this patient population.
