Brief Summary:
This early phase I trial identifies the feasibility, possible benefits and/or side effects of administering SARS-CoV-2 specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in treating cancer patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, the virus responsible for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). SARS-CoV-2 Specific CTLs are a type of immune cells that are made from donated blood cells grown in the laboratory and are designed to kill cells infected with SARS-CoV-2 virus. Giving CTLs may help control the COVID-19 in cancer patients.
Detailed Description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To assess the feasibility and safety of administering most closely human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) specific T cell lines generated by ex vivo expansion as therapy of COVID19 pneumonia in cancer patients.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To obtain preliminary data about the efficacy of administering most closely HLA-matched SARS-COV-2 specific T cell lines generated by ex vivo expansion.
II. To assess the persistence of the administered cells in the patients.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive SARS-COV-2 specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on day 1. Treatment may repeat every 14 days at investigators' discretion if patient fails to respond, the infection reoccurs, until the viral load becomes negative or until complete resolution of clinical and radiological signs.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 7, 14, 21, 28, and 45 days, and 3 months after each cytotoxic T lymphocyte infusion.
