Brief Summary

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

This is a randomized, double-blinded, Phase 2 trial in patients with PML due to JCPyV. Patients will receive treatment with a matched virus-specific T-cell product (CE VST01-JC) or placebo, and will then be monitored for response to therapy.

Detailed Description

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

Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system caused by JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) occurring in immunocompromised patients who face a disease that is usually progressive and often fatal (Padgett 1971; Tan 2010). Annually, it is estimated that 4,000 people develop PML in the United States and Europe combined (NORD 2015).

This is a randomized, double- blinded, Phase 2 trial in patients with PML due to JCPyV. Patients will receive treatment with a matched virus-specific T-cell product (CE VST01-JC) or placebo, and will then be monitored for response to therapy. The study is designed to evaluate whether CE-VST01-JC infusions will slow and ultimately halt neurological progression in patients with PML compared with placebo as evaluated by modified Rankin Score (mRS).
