Study Summary

This investigator-initiated, prospective, single-arm, open-label, single-center clinical study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Inaticabtagene autoleucel (Inati-cel;CNCT19)CD19 CAR-T theraphy in adults B-ALL that are in first complete remission(CR1) with minimal residual disease (MRD) positivity. This trial will enroll 20 participants for leukapheresis and treatment with lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by Inati-cel CAR T cell infusion. Patients will be assessed for MRD negativity rate(at months 1, 2, 3, and 6 after CAR-T transfusion), duration of MRD negativity, overall survival(OS), relapse-free survival(RFS), pharmacokinetics(PK) characteristics, incidence of adverse events(AEs), exploratory biomarker research at 1,2,3,6,9,12,15,18,21 and 24- months post Inati-cel infusion.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • ECOG score of 0-1 at screening

  • Newly diagnosed Ph-negative B-ALL, MRD positive(bone marrow MRD ≥0.01% by flowcytometry) in CR1 (with <5% blasts in bone marrow, no blasts in peripheral blood, noextramedullary disease)after induction chemotherapy or consolidation chemotherapy.

  • Newly diagnosed Ph-positive B-ALL, MRD positive(bone marrow MRD ≥0.01% by flowcytometry or BCR-ABL1 >0.01% detected by qPCR) in CR1 (with <5% blasts in bonemarrow, no blasts in peripheral blood, no extramedullary disease) .

  • At diagnosis of B-ALL,CD19 expression of leukemic cells is positive by flowcytometry in bone marrow or peripheral blood.

  4. Serum creatinine ≤1.5 times ULN, or creatinine clearance ≥60 mL/min (using theCockcroft-Gault formula);

  5. International Normalized Ratio (INR) ≤1.5 times ULN and activated partialthromboplastin time (APTT) ≤1.5 times ULN;

  6. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50%;

  7. Minimum pulmonary reserve, with oxygen saturation >91% on room air;

  • Meets leukapheresis standard of the study center, with no contraindications forblood cell separation;

  • Voluntarily agrees to participate in this study and signs on the informed consentform(ICF).

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  5. HIV antibody positive;

  6. EBV-DNA or CMV-DNA levels above the lower limit of quantification;

  • Active infection at screening.

  • Any other malignancy within the past five years before screening, excluding caseswhere the patient has been disease-free for more than 5 years after curativetreatment or has a low risk of relapse as assessed by the investigator;
