• Patient has received a live vaccine injection within 45 days of planned start of study therapy.
• Patients with concomitant genetic syndromes associated with bone marrow failure states: such as patients with Fanconi anemia, Kostmann syndrome, Shwachman syndrome or any other known bone marrow failure syndrome. Patients with Down syndrome will not be excluded.
• Prior treatment with any gene therapy product except first tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah ®) injection.
• Prior treatment with any anti-CD19/anti-CD3 therapy, or any other anti-CD19 therapy, except for patients pre-treated with blinatumomab and/or tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah®)
• Prior anti-cancer monoclonal antibody within 4 weeks before starting the study.
• Prior chemotherapy, targeted small molecule therapy, or radiation therapy within 2 weeks prior to study Day 1 or who has not recovered (i.e., ≤ Grade1 or at baseline) from adverse events due to a previously administered agent.
• Previous or concurrent malignancy with the following exceptions:
  • Adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma
  • in situ carcinoma of the cervix or breast, treated curatively and without evidence of recurrence for at least 3 years prior to the study.
  • A primary malignancy completely resected and in CR for ≥ 5 years

Other illness

• Patient has an active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment within the past 2 years.
• Patient has known history of, or any evidence of active, non-infectious pneumonitis.
• Patient has a history of non-infectious pneumonitis that required steroid or has current pneumonitis.
• Prior malignancy, except carcinoma in situ of the skin or cervix treated with curative intent and with no evidence of active disease.
• Active or latent hepatitis B or active hepatitis C (test within 8 weeks of Screening), or any uncontrolled infection at Screening.
• Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive test within 8 weeks of Screening.
• Active CNS involvement by malignancy, defined as CNS-3 per NCCN guidelines. Note: Patients with history of CNS disease that has been effectively treated will be eligible.
• Uncontrolled acute life threatening bacterial, viral or fungal infection at Screening.

Lab values
