Leukemia, B-cell

The purpose of Part 1 of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of pirtobruitinib (LOXO-305) to ibrutinib in participants with CLL/SLL; participants may or may not have already had treatment for their cancer. The purpose of Part 2 of this study evaluates pirtobrutinib monotherapy in treatment-naïve participants with CLL/SLL with 17p deletions. Participation could last up to six years for Part 1. Participation could last up to 2 years for Part 2.

CP-MGD024-01 is a Phase 1, open-label, multi-center study of MGD024 as a single agent in participants with select blood cancers that have not responded to treatment with standard therapies or who have relapsed after treatment. The study is designed to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (affect of the body on the drug), pharmacodynamic (affect of the drug on the body), immunogenicity (development of antibodies against the drug), and preliminary anti-cancer effect of MGD024. Participants will receive treatment with MGD024 in consecutive 28-day cycles for a study treatment period of up to 12 cycles (approximately 1 year) or until treatment or study discontinuation criteria are met. Response assessments will be performed after Cycle 1 and then after every even numbered cycle starting with Cycle 2 until progression or study treatment discontinuation. Participants will be checked for side effects throughout the study.

This study is for patients who have a type of blood cancer that expresses the protein CD70, which includes acute myeloid leukemia (AML), T-cell leukemia or B-cell leukemia (and the leukemia has come back or has not gone away after standard of care treatment). As there are limited or no remaining standard treatments available to treat this cancer, subjects are being asked to volunteer to be in a gene transfer research study using special immune cells to create a specialized immune cell that will recognize a protein called CD70 that is expressed on the outside surface of the leukemia cells in a subject's body. The body has different ways of fighting infection and disease. No one way seems perfect for fighting cancers. This research study combines different ways of fighting disease by using T cells and "arming" them to recognize a specific protein on cancer cells. T cells, also called T lymphocytes, are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill other cells including tumor cells. T cells by themselves have been used to treat patients with cancers and have shown promise, but have not been strong enough to cure most patients. T lymphocytes can kill tumor cells but there normally are not enough of them to kill all the tumor cells. Some researchers have taken T cells from a person's blood, grown more of them in the laboratory and then given them back to the person. The protein used in this study is called anti-CD70. It has been developed from human CD27 on normal T cells, since it is the natural binding partner that can connect with CD70. This anti-CD70 protein sticks to leukemia cells when it binds to CD70. CD70 binders have been used to treat people with leukemia. For this study, anti-CD70 has been changed so that instead of floating free in the blood it is now joined to the T cells. When an antibody is joined to a T cell in this way it is called a chimeric receptor or "CAR T cell". The doctors then made another change to cause these T cells to kill any cell that has CD70. This causes the "CAR T cells" to kill blood cancer cells which are confirmed to have CD70. In the laboratory, investigators have found that T cells work better if there are proteins added which stimulate T cells. The anti-CD70 (CD27) protein is unique because it can bind to CD70 on leukemia cells but also stimulates the T cells that express it. Adding the CD27 makes the cells grow better and may help them to last longer in the body, thus giving the cells a better chance of killing the leukemia cells. These CD70 "CAR" T cells are investigational products not approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The purpose of this study is to find a dose of CAR T cells that is safe, to learn what the side effects are and to see whether this therapy might help people with leukemia.

This is a gene transfer study for patients with a type of blood cancer called Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) that has come back or has not gone away after treatment. The body has different ways of fighting infection and disease. No single way seems perfect for fighting cancers. This research study combines two different ways of fighting cancer: antibodies and T cells. Antibodies are types of proteins that protect the body from infectious diseases and possibly cancer. T cells, also called T lymphocytes, are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill other cells, including cells infected with viruses and tumor cells. Both antibodies and T cells have been used to treat patients with cancers. They have shown promise but have not been strong enough to cure most patients. For example, T lymphocytes can kill cancer cells but there normally are not enough of them to kill all the cancer cells. Some researchers have taken T cells from a person's blood, grown more of them in the laboratory and then given them back to the person. The antibody used in this study targets CD19, CD20 and CD22. This antibody sticks to ALL cells because of a substance on the outside of these cells called CD19, CD20 and/or CD22. For this study, the antibody to CD19, CD20 and CD22 has been changed so that instead of floating free in the blood, it is now joined to the T cells. When T-cells contain an antibody that is joined to them, they are called chimeric antigen receptor- T cells or CAR-T cells. In the laboratory, we have also found that T cells work better if we also add proteins that stimulate them. One such protein is called 4-1BB. Adding the 4-1BB molecule makes the cells grow better and last longer in the body, giving them a better chance of killing the leukemia cells. In this study we are going to attach the CD19/CD20/CD22 chimeric receptor that has 4-1BB added to the patient's T cells. We will then test how long the cells last. These T cells, called "TRICAR-ALL" T cells are investigational products not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) outside the context of a clinical trial.
