Autologous CAR-T Cells Targeting B7H3 in Ovarian Cancer iC9-CAR.B7-H3 T Cells

Description

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of using a new treatment called autologous T lymphocyte chimeric antigen receptor cells against the B7-H3 antigen (iC9-CAR.B7-H3 T cells) in patients with ovarian cancer that came back after receiving standard therapy for this cancer. The iC9.CAR.B7-H3 treatment is experimental and has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The study team wants to know how much (dose) of the iC9-CAR.B7-H3 T cells are safe to use in patients without causing too many side effects and what is the maximum dose could be tolerated. There are two parts to this study. In part 1, approximately blood will be collected from subjects to prepare the iC9.CAR.B7-H3 T cells. The study team will collect disease-fighting T cells from the blood and modify them to prepare the iC9.CAR.B7-H3 T cells. In part 2, the iC9.CAR.B7-H3 T cells will be given to eligible subjects by infusion three days after completion of lymphodepletion chemotherapy.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • 1. Unless otherwise noted, subjects must meet all of the following criteria to participate in all phases of the study:
  • 2. Written informed consent and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) authorization for release of personal health information explained to, understood by and signed by the subject.
  • 3. Age ≥ 18 years at the time of consent.
  • 4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) of 0-2.
  • 5. The subject must have histologically or cytologically confirmed epithelial ovarian, peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer and must have a histological diagnosis of a high-grade serous histology based on local histopathological findings.
  • 6. Subject must have recurrent platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory disease defined as: A disease that has progressed by imagining while receiving platinum OR Disease that has recurred within 6 months of the last receipt of platinum-based chemotherapy. Rising CA-125 only is not considered as platinum-resistant or refractory disease.
  • 7. Having received at least 2 prior regimens (including front-line therapy).
  • 1. Subjects with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment has the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen are eligible for this trial.
  • 2. The subject is not willing and not able to comply with study procedures based on the judgment of the investigator or protocol designee.
  • 10. The subject is not willing to undergo a biopsy prior to treatment, after infusion, and at the time of disease progression ), and the tumor is determined to be safe by the treating investigator for biopsy collection.
