What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early This study
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This early-phase trial tests a combination of CAR T cells that target three different markers (CLL-1, CD33, and CD123) on leukemia cells in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. The study aims to see if this approach is safe and can shrink tumors. Only 10 participants are being enrolled, so results are very preliminary.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
CAR T cells targeting CLL-1, CD33, and/or CD123
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for patients with hard-to-treat acute myeloid leukemia.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small trial (only 10 participants) testing safety and effectiveness. CAR T therapy can cause severe side effects, and it is unknown if it will work for most patients.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age older than 6 months. 2. Confirmed expression of CLL-1, CD123 and/or CD33 in blast AML by immuno-histochemical staining or flow cytometry. 3. Karnofsky performance status (KPS) score is higher than 80 and life expectancy \> 3 months. 4.

Hgb≥80g/L. 6. No cell separation contraindications. 7. Abilities to understand and the willingness to provide written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Sever illness or medical condition, which would not permit the patient to be managed according to the protocol, including active uncontrolled infection. 2. Active bacterial, fungal or viral infection not controlled by adequate treatment. 3. Known HIV, hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. 4.
