Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a pilot phase I study to evaluate the safety and efficacy on B7-H3 CAR-T in between Temozolomide cycles in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back or does not respond to the standard treatment. The antigen B7-H3 is highly expressed in glioblastoma of a subset of patients. B7-H3 CAR-T, made from isolated patient peripheral blood mononuclear cells, can specifically attack patient glioblastoma cells that expressing B7-H3.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Background

* B7-H3 is expressed in 70% of patients with glioblastoma
* B7-H3 is not expressed in normal tissues especially not in central nervous system. Therefore, it is an attractive GBM target for CAR-T therapy
* The investigators constructed a retroviral vector encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeting B7-H3, which can mediate CAR transfer into patient T cells with high efficiency.

Objectives

* To evaluate the safety and tolerability intratumoral/intracerebroventricular injection of B7-H3 CAR-T when used in between Temozolomide cycles
* To compare the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of R/R GBM patients treated with B7-H3 CAR-T in between Temozolomide cycles to the historical Temozolomide data
* To access the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of B7-H3 CAR-T in between Temozolomide cycles

Design

Patients autologous T cells are activated and transduced with retrovirus containing B7-H3 CAR. CAR-T cells are expanded ex vivo and infused back to patients via intratumoral or intracerebroventricular injection through an Ommaya catheter. 3 injections of CAR-T are planned at two different doses with 1-2 weeks intervals. The CAR-T injections occur in between Temozolomide (TMZ) cycles. Temozolomide treatment in the cycle of CAR-T injections will be stopped and resumed next cycle. Patients may receive additional CAR-T cycles at the discretion of the principal investigator and oncologist.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

B7-H3 CAR-T

Patients will received regular cycles of Temozolomide treatment with 5 days of treatment and 23 days of interval. 3 infusions of B7-H3 CAR-T with 1-2 weeks of interval will be used in between cycles of Temozolomide treatment. Temozolomide treatment during B7-H3 CAR-T infusions will be stopped and resumed after CAR-T infusion.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

B7-H3 CAR-T

Intervention Type DRUG

The B7-H3 CAR-T will be administrated via intratumoral or Intracerebroventricular injection through an Ommaya catheter in between Temozolomide cycles. Temozolomide will be stopped during the infusion of B7-H3 CAR-T

Temozolomide

Intervention Type DRUG

Temozolomide will be given to patients orally every 5 days with 23 days interval. The initial dose is 150 mg/m2 on the first day and 200 mg/m2 for the rest if no toxicity is seen. If 200 mg/m2 is toxic, the drug will return to 150 mg/m2 or will be stopped.
