CAR T CELL Therapy for Pediatric, Adolescent and Young Adult Patients With CD19-Positive Leukemia
CAR T CELL Therapy for Pediatric, Adolescent and Young Adult Patients With CD19-Positive Leukemia: An Investigation of Lymphodepleting Chemotherapy Pharmacokinetics
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 25 Mar 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
CAR19PK is a research study evaluating the use of lymphodepleting chemotherapy and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy, a type of cellular therapy, for the treatment of refractory and/or relapsed leukemia. For this type of therapy, peripheral (circulating) immune cells are collected and then modified so that they can recognize an antigen, which is a particle present on the surface of a cancer cell. The CD19-CAR T cell product will be manufactured at the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital's Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) facility. The main purpose of this study is to determine: * Evaluate different doses of fludarabine prior CAR T cell infusion * How your body processes fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, * How long the CAR T cells last in the body, * Whether or not treatment with this therapy is effective in treating people with refractory or relapsed leukemia, and * The side effects of this therapy.

Who the study is looking for
- CD19+ leukemia\*\* with any of the following:
- Refractory disease (primary or in relapse)
- 2nd or greater relapse
- Any relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation

- Age: ≤ 21 years of age
- Karnofsky or Lansky (age-dependent) performance score ≥ 50 (Appendix A)
- Estimated life expectancy of \> 12 weeks. Patients with a history of prior allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation \[HCT\] must be clinically recovered from prior HCT therapy, have no evidence of active GVHD and have not received a donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) within the 28 days prior to apheresis

- be at least 3 months from HCT
- have no evidence of active GVHD
- have not received a donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) within the 28 days prior to planned infusion

- Adequate pulmonary function defined as forced vital capacity (FVC) ≥ 50% of predicted value; or pulse oximetry ≥ 92% on room air if patient is unable to perform pulmonary function testing
- Karnofsky or Lansky (age-dependent) performance score ≥ 50 (Appendix A)
