Recruiting PHASE2 CMV

New treatment option for CMV

Official title Prophylaxis of Cytomegalovirus Infection With Adoptive Cell Inmunotherapy

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04056533

What this study is testing

What is CMV CTLs?

CMV CTLs is an investigational medicine, given as an once-weekly infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for cmv.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a major cause of morbidity and mortality for recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT). Recently, strategies based on immunotherapy adoptive cells (IAC) with anti-CMV Cytolitic T Lymphocytes (CMV-CTLs) has been incorporated to prevent or treat CMV after HSCT.

  • ECOG \> or = 3.
  • Organic toxicities grade \> or = 3.
  • Patients who received ATG, donor lymphocytes or alemtuzuamb, 28 days pre-infusion.
  • Patients with uncontroled infection defined by fevers and/or inestability and/or infection not resolved.
  • Persistent fevers 3 days before infusion.
  • Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) grade II-IV.
  • Relapse or progression after transplant and before infusion day.
  • CMV reactivation/infection after transplant and before infusion day. Patients who don´t fill infusion criteria, after day 28 post-HAPLO, will be considered screening failures and will be out of the study.
