Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Study of the Tocilizumab Optimization Timing for CART19 Associated Cytokine Release Syndrome

Study Description

Brief Summary: This is a two cohort, open-label, pilot study to describe the efficacy of administration timing of tocilizumab on CART19 (CTL019) associated cytokine release syndrome safety events in pediatric patients with CD19 expressing relapsed and refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia with high versus low pre-infusion tumor burden following redirected autologous T cells transduced with the anti-CD19 lentiviral vector (CART19/CTL019).

Detailed Description: The duration of active protocol intervention is approximately 12-15 months from the screening visit. The protocol will require approximately 12-18 months to complete enrollment.Approximately 39 enrolled patients to reach at least 35 infused patients, with the ultimate goal of 15 patients in the high tumor burden cohort (Cohort A). Inclusion criteria are designed to include pediatric patients aged 1-24 years with CD19 expressing relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).Tocilizumab will be given once to high disease burden patients, and then the patients will be managed for CRS as per the standard algorithm (including subsequent tocilizumab, if needed). Two cohorts are defined based upon pre-infusion high versus low tumor burden; with the high tumor burden cohort (high risk of severe CRS) to receive earlier administration of tocilizumab for CRS management and the low tumor burden cohort (low risk of severe CRS) to receive standard timing of tocilizumab for CRS
