About this study

This trial is a multi-center, open label, single-arm, phase Ib/II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CNCT19 in Children and Adolescent(aged 3~18 years old) patients (pediatric) with r/r B-cell ALL.

The phase Ib part of the trial is to evaluate the safety, optimal dose of CNCT19, Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics(PK/PD)and preliminary efficacy in the treatment of Children and Adolescent patients with r/r B-cell ALL.

The phase II part of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CNCT19 in in the treatment of Children and Adolescent patients with r/r B-cell ALL.

The study includes screening, pre-treatment (Cell Product manufacture & lymphodepletion), CNCT19 infusion , safety and efficacy follow-up, and survival follow-up. All subjects who have received CNCT19 infusion will be followed for up to 2 years.

  • Patients with Burkitt's lymphoma/leukemia, mixed phenotypic acute leukemia and Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia in Blast Crisis
  • History of concomitant genetic syndrome
  • Patients with acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) or moderate-to-severe chronic GVHD within 4 weeks before screening.
  • Active systemic autoimmune disease

Treatment and study plan

single dose of CNCT19

Biological

Autologous 2nd generation CD19-directed CAR-T cells, single infusion intravenously.

Lymphodepletion treatment:

Drugs:Fludarabine Drugs: Cyclophosphamide

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall Remission Rate (ORR)

    Time frame: within 3 months

    ORR is defined as Complete Remission (CR) and Complete Remission with Incomplete Blood Count Recovery (CRi) per NCCN classification, as determined by Independent Review Committee (IRC)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall complete Remission Rate (ORR) with minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity as determined by IRC and Investigators

    Time frame: within 3 months

    MRD negativity status as determined using flow cytometry

  2. Overall Remission Rate (ORR) as determined by IRC and Investigators

    Time frame: at the end of month 3

    The Investigators' evaluation results of ORR will be utilized in the sensitivity analysis

  3. Overall Remission Rate (ORR) with minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity as determined by IRC and Investigators

    Time frame: at the end of Month 3

    MRD negativity as determined using flow cytometry

  4. Best overall response (BOR)

    Time frame: up to 2 years

    The proportion of patients who have achieved the best response (CR or CRi) after CNCT19 treatment

  5. Duration of remission (DOR)

    Time frame: to data cutoff date

    DOR is defined as the time between their first complete response per independent review to relapse or any death in the absence of documented relapse

  6. Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant (Allo-SCT) rate

    Time frame: First infusion date of CNCT19 to data cutoff date(up to 2 years)

    The proportion of patients who have received Allo-SCT after CNCT19 treatment

  7. Relapse Free Survival (RFS)

    Time frame: 2 years

    RFS is defined as the time from the CNCT19 infusion date to the date of disease relapse or death from any cause.

  8. Overall survival (OS)

    Time frame: 2 years

    OS is defined as the time from the CNCT19 Cell Injection infusion to the date of death from any cause

  9. Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events

    Time frame: up to 2 years

    Percentage of Participants Experiencing Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE) and Severity of TEAE

  10. Percentage of Participants Experiencing Clinically Significant Laboratory Abnormalities

    Time frame: From CNCT19 infusion to date of data cutoff (maximum: 2 years)

    Clinically significant laboratory abnormalities were defined as per investigator's discretion

  11. In vivo cellular Pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of CNCT19

    Time frame: Up to 3 months(BM sample); Up to 2 years(Blood sample)

    To characterize the concentration of CAR-T cell in peripheral blood, bone marrow and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF, if available)by Flow Cytometry and quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR).

  12. Pharmacokinetic (PK)- Cmax of CNCT19

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    Maximum detected concentration of CNCT19 in peripheral blood

  13. Pharmacokinetic (PK)- Tmax of CNCT19.

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    Time to maximum concentration of CNCT19 in peripheral blood

  14. Pharmacokinetic (PK)- AUC of CNCT19.

    Time frame: Up to 2 years

    Area under the concentration (AUC) vs time curve of CNCT19 in peripheral blood

  15. Concentration of Cytokines in Serum

    Time frame: 28 days

    Collected as pharmacodynamic data, including IL-6 at least

  16. Percentage of participants with anti-CNCT19 antibodies in serum

    Time frame: 2 years

    To characterize prevalence and incidence of humoral immunogenicity to CNCT19
