CART-EGFR-IL13Ra2 in EGFR Amplified Recurrent GBM

Study Purpose

This is an open-label phase 1 study to assess the safety and feasibility of autologous T cells co-expressing two CARs targeting the cryptic EGFR epitope 806 and IL13Ra2 (referred to as "CART-EGFR-IL13Ra2 cells") in patients with EGFR-amplified glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype that has recurred following prior radiotherapy. This study will take place in two parts: an initial dose escalation phase followed by a dose exploration phase. In the dose expansion phase, the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CART-EGFR-IL13Ra2 cells will be determined using a standard 3+3 design. Once the MTD has been determined, the dose exploration phase will allow for further identification of a recommended dose for expansion (RDE) as well as the safety and feasibility of alternative dosing schedules.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Signed, written informed consent. 2. Male or female age ≥ 18 years. 3. Patients with glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype (as defined by WHO 2021 Classification of CNS Tumors) that has recurred following prior radiotherapy. For patients with tumors harboring methylation of the MGMT promoter, at least 12 weeks must have elapsed since completion of first-line radiotherapy. 4. Tumor tissue positive for wild-type EGFR amplification by NeoGenomics Laboratories. Archival tumor from patient's initial surgery at time of original diagnosis or recently collected tumor from time of recurrence are acceptable. 5. Surgical tumor resection for disease control/management or tumor biopsy to confirm tumor recurrence is clinically indicated in the opinion of the physician-investigator. 6. Adequate organ function defined as: 1. Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN or estimated creatinine clearance ≥ 30 ml/min and not on dialysis. 2. ALT/AST ≤ 3 x upper limit of normal range and total bilirubin ≤ 2.0 mg/dl, except for patients in whom hyperbilirubinemia is attributed to Gilbert's syndrome (≤ 3.0 mg/dl). 3. Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) ≥ 45% confirmed by ECHO/MUGA. 4. Must have a minimum level of pulmonary reserve defined as ≤ Grade 1 dyspnea and pulse oxygen > 92% on room air. 7. Karnofsky Performance Status ≥ 60%. 8. Subjects of reproductive potential must agree to use acceptable birth control methods.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Active hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection. 2. Any other active, uncontrolled infection. 3. Class III/IV cardiovascular disability according to the New York Heart Association Classification. 4. Tumors primarily localized to the brain stem or spinal cord. 5. Severe, active co-morbidity in the opinion of the physician-investigator that would preclude participation in this study. 6. Receipt of bevacizumab within 3 months prior to physician-investigator confirmation of eligibility. 7. Active autoimmune disease requiring systemic immunosuppressive treatment equivalent to ≥ 10 mg daily of prednisone. Patients with autoimmune neurological diseases (such as MS or Parkinson's) will be excluded. 8. Patients who are pregnant or nursing (lactating). 9. History of allergy or hypersensitivity to study product excipients (human serum albumin, DMSO, and Dextran 40).

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05168423
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.
