Cytotoxic T Cells in Treating Patients With Relapsed Epstein-Barr Virus-Positive Lymphoma
This study is not yet open for participant recruitment.
Verified by National Cancer Institute (NCI), December 2008
Sponsors and Collaborators: Baylor College of Medicine

Information provided by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00675571
  Purpose

RATIONALE: White blood cells that have been treated in the laboratory may kill more cancer cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of cytotoxic T cells in treating patients with relapsed Epstein-Barr virus-positive lymphoma.

Further study details as provided by National Cancer Institute (NCI):

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Safety [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Survival and immune function of TGFβ-resistant LMP-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte lines [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Anti-viral and anti-tumor effects [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Safety and response to extended dosage regimen [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 18
Study Start Date: April 2006
Estimated Primary Completion Date: December 2025 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

  • To determine the safety of 2 intravenous injections of autologous or allogeneic TGFβ-resistant LMP-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) in patients with relapsed Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
  • To determine the survival and the immune function of TGFβ-resistant LMP-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte lines.
  • To assess the anti-viral and anti-tumor effects of TGFβ-resistant LMP-specific CTL.
  • To obtain preliminary information on the safety and response to an extended dosage regimen.

OUTLINE: Peripheral blood are collected from the patient or donor for generation of TGFβ-resistant LMP-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs).

Patients receive TGFβ-resistant LMP-specific CTLs over 1-10 minutes on days 0 and 14.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 4 years, and then annually for up to 10 years.
