Recruiting PHASE1 Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

New treatment option for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

Official title uCD7 CART for Relapsed or Refractory CD7 Positive Hematologic Malignancies

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07109518

What this study is testing

What is uCD7 CART?

uCD7 CART is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (aml).

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
The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of universal CD7 CART (uCD7 CART) cells in the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory CD7-positive hematologic malignancies. In this single-arm, open-label, single-center, Phase 1 clinical trial, two cohorts were set up: (1) relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cohort; and (2) relapsed and refractory T lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (T-ALL/LBL) cohort.
  • Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
