Phase 1/2
Dual-Target GD2/B7-H3 CAR-NK Cells for Pediatric Relapsed or Refractory Neuroblastoma
Condition(s) studied
Relapsed NeuroblastomaRefractory NeuroblastomaHigh-Risk NeuroblastomaGanglioneuroblastoma
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
EB-DTNB-NKFludarabineCyclophosphamide
EB-DTNB-NK: Allogeneic, cord blood-derived NK cells engineered with a dual-target CAR recognizing GD2 and B7-H3 (CD276), with IL-15 support and an inducible safety switch; administered intravenously on Day 0 with optional repeat dosing on Days 7 and 14 if tolerated.
Fludarabine: Lymphodepleting chemotherapy administered before CAR-NK infusion according to the protocol-defined conditioning regimen.
Cyclophosphamide: Lymphodepleting chemotherapy administered before CAR-NK infusion according to the protocol-definedb conditioning regimen.
Study summary
This illustrative Phase 1/Phase 2 study tests allogeneic dual-target GD2/B7-H3 (CD276) CAR-NK cells in children and young adults with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma. After lymphodepletion, participants receive IV CAR-NK cells;Part A defines the RP2D and Part B estimates preliminary activity
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
* Age 12 months to 21 years at consent/assent.
* Histologically confirmed neuroblastoma or ganglioneuroblastoma with relapsed, refractory, progressive, or persistent high-risk disease for which no curative standard option is available.
* Measurable or evaluable disease according to revised International Neuroblastoma Response Criteria (rINRC), including MIBG-avid disease, CT/MRI-evaluable soft-tissue disease, and/or bone marrow disease.
* Tumor material available for central assessment of GD2 and B7-H3 expression; at least one target must be positive.
GD2 is treated as the core target and B7-H3 as the complementary target for correlative target-prioritization analyses.
* Prior exposure to standard neuroblastoma therapy, including anti-GD2-based therapy, unless contraindicated, unavailable, or declined for a documented medical reason.
* Lansky or Karnofsky performance score \>= 50.
* Life expectancy \>= 8 weeks.
* Recovery from clinically significant acute toxicities of prior therapy and protocol-defined washout from chemotherapy, biologics, radiation, and prior cell therapy.
* Adequate organ function: hematologic, renal, hepatic, cardiac, and pulmonary function considered sufficient by protocoldefined laboratory and clinical thresholds.
* Negative pregnancy test for patients of childbearing potential and agreement to use effective contraception during the protocol-defined period.
* Written informed consent from parent/legal guardian and assent from the participant when appropriate.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Active uncontrolled infection, including bacteremia, uncontrolled viral infection, or invasive fungal disease.
* Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
* Active grade \>= 2 graft-versus-host disease, or systemic immunosuppression for treatment/prevention of graft-versushost disease within the protocol-defined washout period after prior allogeneic transplant.
* Symptomatic or unstable central nervous system disease requiring urgent medical intervention.
* Prior genetically modified cellular therapy within the protocol-defined washout window, or unresolved clinically significant toxicity from prior cell therapy.
* Active autoimmune disease requiring systemic immunosuppressive therapy.
* Clinically significant uncontrolled cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, or neurologic disorder that would increase study risk.
* Known hypersensitivity to fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, study-product components, or supportive-care medications required by the protocol.
* Known uncontrolled HIV infection or uncontrolled hepatitis B or C.
* Any medical, psychosocial, or logistical condition that, in the investigator's judgment, would make study participation unsafe or would impair protocol adherence.
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) after first CARNK infusion, using protocol-defined DLT criteria. — 28 days
- Incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events — 12 months
Incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events, including CRS and ICANS, graded using CTCAE v5.0 and ASTCT consensus criteria.
