Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer treatment combining two existing methods: T cells and antibodies. Researchers hope that the combination will be stronger than either method alone in fighting the cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people up to 75 years old with certain types of blood cancers like B-cell lymphoma, ALL, or CLL that have come back or didn't respond to treatment. They should be fit enough for the study and not have infections needing antibiotics, HIV/HTLV, or a history of severe reactions to mouse proteins.
What is being tested?
The trial tests two modified T-cell therapies against aggressive blood cancers. One therapy includes CD19.CAR/28 T cells; the other adds CD137 to enhance effectiveness. The goal is to find the safest high dose, understand side effects, and see if these therapies can help patients.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include immune system reactions due to engineered T-cells targeting cancer cells but could also affect normal cells inadvertently. Specifics will be monitored closely given this is an investigational approach.

Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Dose Expansion: CD19 CAR T Cells for B-cell NHL/CLLExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Each patient will receive the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CD19 CAR T Cells administered as an infusion. Each infusion will consist of CD19.CAR/28 T cells and CD19.CAR/28137 T cells.
Group II: Dose Expansion: CD19 CAR T Cells for B-cell ALLExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Each patient will receive the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CD19 CAR T Cells administered as an infusion. Each infusion will consist of CD19.CAR/28 T cells and CD19.CAR/28137 T cells.
Group III: Dose Escalation: CD19 CAR T Cells for B-cell NHL/CLLExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Each patient will receive a dose of CD19 CAR T Cells administered as an infusion. Each infusion will consist of CD19.CAR/28 T cells and CD19.CAR/28137 T cells.
Group IV: Dose Escalation: CD19 CAR T Cells for B-cell ALLExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Each patient will receive a dose of CD19 CAR T Cells administered as an infusion. Each infusion will consist of CD19.CAR/28 T cells and CD19.CAR/28137 T cells.
