Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma expressing CD30 antigens.

Probably not a fit

Patients with non-CD30 expressing Hodgkin Lymphoma or those who are not eligible for lymphodepletion may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of ATLCAR.CD30.CCR4 cells in patients with Hodgkin Lymphoma that is relapsed or refractory. It is a single-center, open-label study that aims to determine the tolerability of this novel cellular therapy and establish a recommended dose for further investigation. The trial employs a 3+3 design to identify the optimal dose and includes a phase II component to assess progression-free survival in participants. Patients may receive standard-of-care therapies during the study to stabilize their condition.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this therapy could significantly improve outcomes for patients with Hodgkin Lymphoma who have limited treatment options.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies targeting CD30 in Hodgkin Lymphoma have shown promise, indicating potential for success with this approach.

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
During the period of cell procurement and lymphodepletion, subjects will be eligible to receive standard-of-care therapy e.g., chemotherapy or radiation therapy to stabilize their disease if the treating physician feels it is in the subject's best interests. Eligibility must be maintained up until the subject is procured, receives lymphodepletion, or receives treatment for the subject to be considered eligible to proceed with the specific phase of the study.

Inclusion Criteria:

Unless otherwise noted, subjects must meet all of the following criteria to participate in all phases of the study. As these criteria are unchanging they will be evaluated at the time of initial enrollment and not continuously throughout the study.

1. Written informed consent and HIPAA authorization for release of personal health information explained to, understood by, and signed by the subject or legally authorized representative.
2. Age ≥ 18 years at the time of consent.
3. Karnofsky score of \> 60%
4. The subject must have a diagnosis of Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma according to World Health Organization criteria.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Subjects had major surgery within 28 days.
2. Subject received investigational agents or tumor vaccines within 3 weeks.
3. Subject received chemotherapy or radiation therapy within the previous 3 weeks.
