This study evaluates T cells genetically modified to target CD19 (CAR-T) in patients with high-risk, relapsed/refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). It included patients with confirmed CD19 positivity. It was a Phase 1 study, ongoing but not currently recruiting.
The summary above is a plain-language rendering of the official record. The original English title is shown for reference.
Criteria are reproduced from the ClinicalTrials.gov record in the original English. Only the trial team can determine eligibility.
Inclusion Criteria:
