Brief Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and how well CART-BCMA/CS1 works in treating patients with multiple myeloma (MM) that has come back (relapsed) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is a type of treatment in which a patient's T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient's blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein on the patient's cancer cells is added to the T cells in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion for treatment of certain cancers, including MM. Immune cells can be engineered to kill MM cells by inserting a piece of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) into the immune cells using a lentiviral vector, that allows them to recognize MM cells. CART-BCMA cells are such modified T cells that target markers called CS1 or B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), which is expressed by a type of white blood cell called a "B-cell", which are cells that may help the MM cells grow. These engineered CART-BCMA/CS1 cells may kill MM cells.

Treatment (CART-BCMA/CS1)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients undergo leukapheresis on 35 to 21 days before Infusion Day (I-Day -35 to I-Day -21) and receive cyclophosphamide IV over 60 minutes and fludarabine IV over 30 minutes on I-Days -5, -4, and -3. Patients then receive CART-BCMA/CS1 IV on I-Day-0 on study. Patients undergo ECHO, ECG and MRI during screening. Patients undergo bone marrow biopsy and/or bone marrow aspirate screening, between I-Day -28 to I-Day -5, I-Day 30, and at 1 year post CART-BCMA/CS1 infusion. Patients also undergo FDG PET/CT during screening, between I-Day -28 to I-Day -5, I-Day 90 and I-Day 180 and every 3 months thereafter.
