- Original description
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate if obe-cel is safe or causes any side effects in adults with refractory progressive MS. The study also plans to assess if obe-cel can show early signs of efficacy in MS. The trial includes only 1 group of participants (single-arm). The study population comprises participants with progressive forms of MS, not responsive to at least 2 disease-modifying therapies.Read full original descriptionShow less
A Single-arm, Open-label, Phase I Study to Determine the Safety, Tolerability, and Preliminary Efficacy of Obe-cel in Participants With Refractory Progressive Forms of Multiple Sclerosis
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate if obe-cel is safe or causes any side effects in adults with refractory progressive MS. The study also plans to assess if obe-cel can show early signs of efficacy in MS. The trial includes only 1 group of participants (single-arm). The study population comprises participants with progressive forms of MS, not responsive to at least 2 disease-modifying therapies.
Upon confirmation of study eligibility, participants will receive chemotherapy (used here for lymphodepletion) over 1 to 3 days in preparation for receiving a single obe-cel infusion.
Participants will be checked closely in the 28 days following obe-cel treatment. After this, participants will be monitored to evaluate safety and efficacy up to 24 months.
Inclusion: Willing and able to give written informed consent for participation in the study; Ability and willingness to adhere to the protocol's Schedule of Activities and other requirements; Participants must be 18 to 60 years of age inclusive at the time of signing the informed consent form; A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding; Current diagnosis of PMS; Must have been treated previously with at least 2 disease-modifying therapies.
Exclusion: Any medications prohibited by the protocol; Diagnosis of another autoimmune central nervous system condition; Active or uncontrolled fungal, bacterial, viral infection; History of malignant neoplasms unless disease-free for at least 24 months; History of heart, lung, kidney, liver transplant or hematopoietic stem cell transplant; Highly active multiple sclerosis.
