Study Groups

BZ019

The subjects are enrolled into single-dose(1～5x10\^6/kg) of BZ019 ( non viral vector CD19-targeted Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T Cells Injection).

• 10)Must have an apheresis product of non-mobilized cells accepted for manufacturing;
• 11)If the patient uses the following drugs, the following conditions should be met: A)glucocorticoids: The treatment dose of glucocorticoids must be stopped 72 hours before BZ019 infusion. However, glucocorticoids of physiological alternative dose are allowed: prednisone or its equivalent ≤ 15 mg / day; B)Immunosuppression: Any immunosuppressive medication must be stopped ≥ 4 weeks prior to enrollment; C) Antiproliferative therapies other than lymphodepleting chemotherapy within two weeks of infusion; D) Antibody use including anti-CD20 therapy within 4 weeks prior to infusion or 5 half-lives of the respected antibody, whichever is longer; E)CNS disease prophylaxis must be stopped > 1 week prior to BZ019 infusion (e.g. intrathecal methotrexate);
• 12)Women of child-bearing age and all male subjects must agree to use effective contraceptive methods until BZ019 are no longer present in the body (detected by PCR).
