αβT Cell/CD19+ B Cell Depletion for Alternative Donor Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HSCT)
(TB19DHCT)
What this study is about
This is a study utilizing the Magnetic-activated cell sorting (CliniMACS®) Alpha-Beta T-cell (αβT)/Cluster of Differentiation 19 (CD19), also called B lymphocyte antigen CD19 depletion device for Children and Young Adults with Hematologic Malignancies undergoing alternative Donor Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HSCT).
View original scientific description
This is a study utilizing the Magnetic-activated cell sorting (CliniMACS®) Alpha-Beta T-cell (αβT)/Cluster of Differentiation 19 (CD19), also called B lymphocyte antigen CD19 depletion device for Children and Young Adults with Hematologic Malignancies undergoing alternative Donor Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HSCT). Patients will receive an allogenic HSCT from a matched unrelated donor (MUD), mismatch unrelated donor (MMUD) or a mismatched related (haploidentical) donor. Patients will receive a granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) ± Plerixafor donor mobilized peripheral stem cell donor transplant following CliniMACS® αβT cell/CD19+B cell depletion. Cluster of Differentiation 34 (CD34) and αβT cell content of the graft is determined based on the transplant indication.
Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- Age ≤ 30 years
- Patients who will benefit from an allogenic stem cell transplant to treat underlying primary hematological malignancy and lacks a suitably available matched sibling donor.
- Karnofsky Index or Lansky Performance Scale ≥ 60 % on pre-transplant evaluation.
- Karnofsky scores must be used for patients \> 16 years of age and Lansky scores for patients ≤ 16 years of age.
- Patient or legal guardian must give informed consent if patient is ≥ 18 years. Legal guardian must give informed consent (and patient must give assent if appropriate) if patient is \< 18 years.
- Adequate organ function (within 4 weeks of initiation of preparative regimen). For patients receiving Myeloablative conditioning (MAC) on this platform, they should meet organ function to tolerate MAC. Similar if patients are receiving Reduced intensity conditioning (RIC).
- High resolution human leukocyte antigen (HLA) available
Exclusion criteria
- Patient does not have a suitable donor who is willing and able (meets donor criteria).
- Patient reports a history of allergic reactions to murine protein
- Pregnant or lactating females are ineligible as many of the medications used in this protocol could be harmful to unborn children and infants. Female patients of childbearing potential females ≥11 years of age or post- menarche and should have a negative pregnancy test
- Patients with HIV or uncontrolled fungal, bacterial or viral infections are excluded. Patients with history of fungal disease during induction therapy may proceed if they have a significant response to antifungal therapy with no or minimal evidence of disease remaining by CT evaluation. Viremia by Pluripotency Check (PCR) analysis is not considered an active infection but may require immediate viral prophylaxis. Patients with possible fungal infections must have had at least 2 weeks of appropriate anti-fungal therapy and be asymptomatic -
- Patients receiving umbilical cord blood and matched sibling donor transplants
Where
- Columbus, Ohio
Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
