NCT ID NCT03533816

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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
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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 whether giving patients extra gamma delta T-cells—a type of immune cell that can kill cancer—after a half-matched bone marrow transplant can improve outcomes. The study includes up to 38 adults with leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and helps prevent cancer relapse while reducing graft-versus-host disease, a common and serious transplant complication.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
gamma delta T-cells (a type of immune cell grown in the lab)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could improve the success of half-matched bone marrow transplants by helping the new immune system attack cancer cells while reducing harmful side effects.
What could go wrong
This is an early phase 1 trial with only 38 participants, so safety and effectiveness are not yet proven. There is a risk of severe side effects, including graft-versus-host disease or organ damage.

Inclusion Criteria: The following criteria are used to enroll patients in the study before transplant. * Patients with neoplastic hematological disorders with indication of allogeneic transplant according to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) or other standard guidelines as follows: * Acute myeloid leukemia \[AML\] in morphologic complete remission with intermediate/high-risk features (per NCCN criteria) or relapsed disease * Chronic myeloid leukemia \[CML\] in any chronic phase. * Myelodysplastic syndrome \[MDS\] with intermediate/high risk features or refractory disease (with bone marrow blast count \<10%). * Acute lymphoblastic leukemia \[ALL\] in morphologic complete remission with high-risk features or relapsed disease. * Negative test for donor-specific antibody within 28 days of starting conditioning regimen. * Age Criteria: 19-65 years. * Organ Function Criteria: The following organ function testing should be done within 35 days before study registration. * Cardiac: Normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (50% or above) as measured by MUGA or Echocardiogram. * Pulmonary: FVC, FEV1 and DLCO (corrected) should be 50% or above of expected. * Renal: serum creatinine level to be \<2 mg/dl AND estimated (Cockcroft-Gault formula) or measured (takes priority if done) creatinine clearance (CrCl) must be equal or greater than 70 mL/min/1.73 m2. * Hepatic: serum bilirubin 1.5 upper limit of normal (ULN), Aspartate transaminase (AST)/alanine transaminase (ALT) 2.5 ULN, and alkaline phosphatase 2.5 ULN. * Performance status: Karnofsky performance score (KPS) or Lansky score: ≥80. * Hematopoietic cell transplant comorbidity index (HCT-CI) \<3. Exception may be made on individual cases after discussion with the primary investigator. * Consent: All patients must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and given written informed consent in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines. The following criteria are required within 48 hours prior to infusion of the EAGD T cell product. * Absence of uncontrolled infection with sepsis syndrome (e.g persistent positive blood culture). * NO hemodynamic instability (due to sepsis or organ dysfunction) or circulatory volume overload. * NO clinically significant organ toxicity that are defined as follows: * Heart failure with subnormal LVEF or clinical fluid overload. * Elevated serum creatinine or subnormal creatinine clearance (either estimated or measured). * Elevated total bilirubin ≥1.5 upper normal level (unless indirect hyperbilirubinemia attributed to non-hepatic pathology), or elevated liver enzymes (ALT, AST, ALP) \>5 x ULN. * Hypoxemia requiring oxygen therapy * NO acute graft versus host disease (any grade). * Neutrophil engraftment. Exclusion Criteria: * Non-compliant patients. * No appropriate caregivers identified. * Uncontrolled medical or psychiatric disorders which may preclude patients to undergo clinical studies (Discretion of the attending physician). * Active central nervous system (CNS) neoplastic involvement. * Morbid obesity with body mass index \>35 (borderline cases may be considered on case-by-case basis after discussion with the primary investigator). * Patients with known allergy to DMSO. * HIV1 (Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1) or HIV2 positive. * Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
