Evaluation of Safety and Feasibility of Cytomegalovirus-Specific, Anti-HIV Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CMV/HIV-CAR) T Cells in People with HIV

Therapeutic Candidate or Device Cytomegalovirus (CMV)-specific T cells that express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) which targets and eliminates HIV-infected cells Indication Management of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) Therapeutic Mechanism Persons with HIV (PWH) lose immunity because of decreased T lymphocyte function. We propose to treat them with CAR T cells which […]

Autologous ARTEMIS® T Cells to Treat Refractory/Relapsed Pediatric Liver Cancer

Therapeutic Candidate or Device ET140203 T cells: engineered T-cell therapy whereby autologous T cells are modified to specifically target and kill AFP+/ HLA-A2+ cancer cells. Indication Pediatric subjects aged ≥ 1 year to ≤ 21 years who are AFP-positive/HLA-A2-positive and have relapsed/refractory (r/r) HB, HCN-NOS, or HCC. Therapeutic Mechanism ET140203 T-cell therapy is designed to […]

Phase 1 Study of Autologous CD4LVFOXP3 in Participants with IPEX Syndrome

Therapeutic Candidate or Device CD4+ T cells that have undergone lentiviral -mediated gene transfer of Forkhead Box P3 (FOXP3) and acquired regulatory T cell function. Indication Immune dysregulation Polyendocrinopathy Enteropathy X-linked (IPEX) syndrome Therapeutic Mechanism Administration of autologous CD4LVFOXP3 that constitutively and stably express wild-type FOXP3 gene will replace the lack of function regulatory T […]

Phase 1 Clinical Trial of Autologous GD2 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells for Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Gliomas and Spinal Diffuse Midline Glioma

Therapeutic Candidate or Device Autologous T cells genetically engineered to express a Chimeric Antigen Receptor targeting GD2 (GD2-CART) Indication Brain tumors in children and young adults: Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Gliomas (DIPG) and Spinal Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG) Therapeutic Mechanism Progenitor GD2-CART cells will recognize DIPG/DMG cancer cells expressing GD2, become activated, divide, and kill the […]

Phase I Study of IL13Rα2-Targeting CAR T Cells After Lymphodepletion for Children with Refractory or Recurrent Malignant Brain Tumors

Therapeutic Candidate or Device Autologous chimeric antigen receptor T cells derived from naive/memory T cells and engineered to target IL13Rα2 on pediatric malignant brain tumors. Indication Recurrent/refractory malignant pediatric brain tumors that express the tumor-associated antigen IL13Rα2. Therapeutic Mechanism Naive and memory T cells are harvested from patients and reprogrammed to express chimeric antigen receptors […]

A Phase I Clinical Trial for a Lentiviral Gene Therapy Targeting the TCIRG1 Gene for Infantile Malignant Osteopetrosis (IMO)

Therapeutic Candidate or Device The therapeutic candidate is an ex-vivo autologous gene therapy approach for Infantile Malignant Osteopetrosis (IMO). Indication The target clinical indication is Infantile Malignant Osteopetrosis (IMO), a pediatric, autosomal recessive rare disease. Therapeutic Mechanism The therapeutic mechanism is based on an ex-vivo, lentiviral-based, patient-specific approach by genetically engineering the patient's own CD34+ […]

Anti-HIV duoCAR-T cell therapy for HIV infection

Therapeutic Candidate or Device HIV-specific CAR-T cells Indication Management of HIV infection Therapeutic Mechanism We will modify T cells such that they are able to directly control HIV in the absence of therapy. Should this work, these cells will result in long-term control of HIV in absence of any ongoing treatment, a version of a […]

A Phase I Study of Chimeric Antigen Receptor Engineered Stem/Memory T Cells for the Treatment of HER2-Positive Brain Metastases

Therapeutic Candidate or Device Autologous naïve-stem/memory T cells engineered with a chimeric antigen receptor targeting the HER2 antigen (HER2BBζ-Tn/mem) Indication HER2-positive brain and/or leptomeningeal metastases, primarily from breast cancer Therapeutic Mechanism The proposed therapy aims to provide a safe and effective treatment option for patients with HER2-positive cancers that have metastasized to the central nervous […]

LADICell

Therapeutic Candidate or Device The therapeutic candidate is an ex-vivo autologous gene therapy approach for Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency-I (LAD-I). Indication The target clinical indication is Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency-I (LAD-I), a pediatric hematological rare disease. Therapeutic Mechanism The therapeutic is based in an ex-vivo, lentiviral-based, patient-specific approach by genetically engineering the patient's own CD34 positively selected […]

Phase 1/2 study for autologous human CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells ex vivo transduced with pCCL-CTNS lentiviral vector for treatment of Cystinosis.
