Anti-CD19 CAR T-Cell Therapy in Refractory Systemic Autoimmune Diseases
Bu çalışma, CD19 hedefli CAR T hücre tedavisini, standart tedavilere dirençli sistemik otoimmün hastalıkları (systemic autoimmune diseases) olan hastalarda inceliyor. Çalışmaya; sistemik lupus eritematozus (systemic lupus erythematosus), sistemik skleroz (systemic sclerosis), dermatomiyozit/polimiyozit ya da ANCA ilişkili vaskülit gibi hastalıkları olan, glukokortikoidlere ve en az iki tedaviye yeterli yanıt vermemiş 18-65 yaş arası erişkinler kabul edilmektedir. Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS tarafından yürütülen çalışma Faz 1/Faz 2 aşamasında yürütülmekte olup halen katılımcı almaktadır.

Fulfilling the 2013 ACR/EULAR classification criteria of SSc; 2. Diffuse SSc with respective autoantibody profile; 3. Signs for fast progression including i) disease duration ≤5 years (from onset of first non-Raynaud manifestation), ii) mRSS score 10-35 at screening, iii) elevated acute phase reactant levels (CRP ≥ 6 mg/L, ESR ≥ 28mm/h or platelet count ≥ 330 000/mm3), iii) mRSS increase ≥ 3 units or involvement of one new body area or mRSS increase ≥ 2 units in one body area or ≥1 tendon friction rub over 6 months; 4. Insufficient response to glucocorticoids and to at least 2 of the following treatments: mycophenolate mofetil, azathioprine, nintedanib, methotrexate, rituximab. * DM/PM subjects a) Fulfilling the 2017 ACR/EULAR classification criteria for probable or definite DM or PM57, b) Muscle weakness as defined by MMT \< 142 and 2 of the following criteria: VAS patients Global ≥ 2 cm, VAS physician Global ≥ 2 cm, HAQ \> 0.25, at least one muscle enzyme \>1.3 times upper limit of normal, VAS global extra muscular activity ≥ 2 cm; c) Presence of at least one myositis-specific antibody; d) Insufficient response to glucocorticoids and to at least 2 of the following treatments: mycophenolate mofetil, ciclosporin A, tacrolimus, methotrexate, rituximab, and intravenous immunoglobulins. * AAV subjects 1.

At least one major or three non-major items or at least two renal items of hematuria and proteinuria on the BVAS; 4. Failure of at least 1 of the following treatments: glucocorticoids, cyclophosphamide, or B-cell targeting therapy. Exclusion criteria * Clinically suitability for a less burdensome and/or approved therapeutic approach, as judged by the investigator; * ANC \< 1.000/mm3, ALC \< 500/mm3 or hemoglobin \< 8 g/dl, absolute CD3+ T cell count ≤100/µl; * Evidence of significant and uncontrolled concomitant diseases that could affect compliance with the protocol or interpretation of results. * Relevant cardiovascular disease: recent history of myocardial infarction, cardiac angioplasty or stenting, unstable angina, significant arrhythmia, congestive heart failure, or left ventricular ejection fraction \< 50%, as determined by echocardiography * Any condition, including the presence of laboratory abnormalities, which places the subject at unacceptable risk if he/she were to participate in the study or confounds the ability to interpret data from the study; * Impaired renal function, i.e., eGFR \< 30 ml/min; * Patients with evidence on thorax CT of advanced fibrotic interstitial lung disease and whose latest pulmonary function test showed a Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) \< 40% of predicted or a Diffusing Capacity for Carbon Monoxide (DLCO) \< 30% of predicted * Any concomitant severe active infection, including HIV (even with negative viral load), active hepatitis B (either positive for Hepatitis B core antibody \[HBcAb\] or positive hepatitis B surface antigen \[HBsAg\] and NAT tests) and/or C (\<12 weeks between achievement of a sustained virological response to the specific treatment and apheresis) according to the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases guidelines, SARS-CoV 2 (COVID 19), or active tuberculosis as defined by a positive Quantiferon TB-test. If the presence of latent tuberculosis is established, then treatment according to local guidelines must have been initiated before enrolment; * Pregnant or lactating females; * Known hypersensitivity to either any drug components or any auxiliary medicinal products scheduled during trial participation, including during lymphodepletion; * Malignancy in the last 5 years before screening.
