Who can take part
AI summary
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for children and young adults with high-risk acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome who already had a stem cell transplant from a partly compatible donor.
- Age
- From 18 Months to 39 Years.
- Sex
- All sexes can join.
- Disease stage
- High-risk acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome, after a donor stem cell transplant (T-cell and B-cell depleted) with blood cell and platelet recovery (engraftment).
- Earlier treatment
- Must have had a stem cell transplant from a partly HLA-compatible related or unrelated donor. No planned anti-leukemia treatment within 21 days of dosing. No TNF a or PI3K inhibitors within 60 days of screening. No live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks of the first dose. No earlier Listeria product, including QUAIL-100.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Active Grade II acute graft versus host disease needing more than 0.5 mg/kg methylprednisolone, or any Grade III/IV acute graft versus host disease
- Significant heart, lung, kidney, liver, gut, nerve or immune disease that could make taking part unsafe
- Known allergy or intolerance to both amoxicillin and gentamycin
- Implanted devices with a high chance of bacterial seeding, such as pacemakers, artificial heart valves or prosthetic joints
- Weight under 10 kg (22 lb) or Lansky/Karnofsky score of 60 or less
The registry criteria, word for word
Show all 12 criteriaShow less
Who can take part
- Weight >/= 10 kg
- Have received HLA-partially matched related or unrelated donor ab-depleted hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for high-risk malignant disease and has achieved myeloid and platelet engraftment
- Lanksy/Karnofsky score > 60
- Participants of childbearing potential must agree to use contraception to prevent pregnancy
Who cannot take part
- Planned anti-leukemic therapy within 21 days of planned dosing
- Use of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) a or phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors within 60 days of screening
- Any prior investigational Listeria product including QUAIL-100
- Live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks of first dose
- Active Grade II acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) requiring > 0.5 mg/kg methylprednisolone or any diagnosis of Grade III/IV aGVHD
- Significant cardiac, pulmonary, renal, hepatic, GI, neurological or immunological disease that could compromise safe participation
- Known allergies, hypersensitivity or intolerance to both amoxicillin and gentamycin
- Implanted medical devices with high potential for bacterial seeding, including pacemakers, artificial cardiac valves, prosthetic joints, orthopedic plates or screws, atrial appendage or inferior vena cava devices for thrombosis prevention
