The drug

What is being tested.

Autologous T lymphocyte population that contains cells transduced ex-vivo with a CARv3-TEAM-E lentiviral vector encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Administered via Ommaya reservoir.

This is a non-randomized, open label, single site Phase 1 study to define the appropriate dose of CARv3-TEAM-E and evaluate its safety for the treatment of recurrent or newly diagnosed glioblastoma. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells as a treatment for any disease. This is the first time that CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells will be given to humans.

CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells are made from a person's own collected immune cells (T-Cells) that are genetically changed and then delivered back into the body to try to kill their cancerous cells. The research study procedures include screening for eligibility, study treatment, including evaluations and follow up visits, blood collections, echocardiograms, and radiologic imaging of tumors. It is expected participants will receive treatment over a period of short-term (approx.

The study

How the trial runs.

The goal of this research study is to determine the best dose of CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells for treating participants with glioblastoma. The name of the treatment intervention used in this research study is: -CARv3-TEAM-E T Cells (or Autologous T lymphocytes).

Eligibility

Who the study is looking for.

  • Safety Run In Arm and ARM 1: Recurrent GBM, EGFRvIII mutant
  • Participants must have histologically confirmed recurrent GBM or molecular features of GBM with presence of EGFRvIII mutation detected at initial diagnosis. MGMT methylated, unmethylated, or unknown is allowed.
  • Participants must be at first progression or recurrence and plan is for biopsy or surgical debulking. Participants must have at least received prior radiation. Prior temozolomide is not required if the participant is MGMT unmethylated.
  • Participants must be 2 weeks from prior alkylating therapy or immunotherapy and ≥ 5 half-lives from another investigational agent before proceeding with collection or treatment. No washout is required from radiation since participants will need histological confirmation of recurrence to participate.
  • ARM 2: Newly Diagnosed GBM, EGFRvIII mutant (will only open once safety is confirmed in Arms 1 and 3)
  • Participants must have histologically confirmed newly diagnosed GBM with presence of EGFRvIII mutation and their tumors must be MGMT unmethylated.
