Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Following stem cell transplantation, a major risk is graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). This occurs when donor immune cells that have been infused recognise the host's cells as 'foreign' and attack these cells. Prevention of GVHD relies upon depletion of donor immune T cells or drugs that block T cell function. However, these methods also increase the risk of life threatening infection. There is an important unmet need for better means of accelerating immune recovery following stem cell transplantation while avoiding GVHD. Pre-clinical studies have shown that infusion of donor CD62L- effector memory T cells (Tem) into the host improve immune recovery after allo-Stem Cell Transplant but do not cause GVHD. PURPOSE: This phase I dose escalation trial aims to determine the feasibility and safety of transfer of donor Tem following allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Other Outcomes (5)

  • TCR repertoire analysis by deep CDR3 sequencing

    Day -14 to -7 (day of cell processing) and day 100 and 360 post stem cell transplant

  • Chimerism of immune subsets (analysing the genetic profiles of recipient and donor at baseline and following stem cell transplant)

    Pre-Registration and Day 100, 180, 270, 360 post stem cell transplant

  • +2 more other outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Donor T cells depleted of CD62L+ cells (CD62L- Tem)

EXPERIMENTAL

Donors will undergo a steady state apheresis for the collection of T cells. Selection of CD62L- Tem at the required dose will be performed at UCL Centre for Cell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (CCGTT). Donor Tem will be infused into patients on day 24-32 following allo-Stem Cell Transplant.

Biological: CD62L- Tem

Interventions

CD62L- TemBIOLOGICAL

Donor memory T cells that have been depleted of CD62L+
