Brief Summary: CAR-T cell treatment of refractory lymphoma has shown success, particularly with CD-19 targeted CAR-T cells, however, many participants are refractory or relapse after response. Responses are more limited in CLL/SLL, possibly secondary to the suppressive effect of circulating B cells on T cell function.

BAFF receptor is a target that has been explored in CLL. Preclinical data indicates that CAR- T cells expressing B-cell activating factor (BAFF) can be another effective strategy to treat refractory CLL. This study aims to explore the efficacy of LMY-920 a BAFF-ligand CAR T cells with depletion of B cells with Obinutuzumab prior to apheresis.
Detailed Description: There is a persistent need for development of new, effective therapies for treatment of B cell malignancies. Therapy with CAR-T cells has demonstrated activity against refractory lymphoma, however not all tumors respond or remain in response to CD19 targeted CAR-T cells. While CAR T-cells have activity against CLL/SLL, the rates of response are more limited than non Hodgkin lymphoma. Based on preclinical data of anti BAFF-R CAR T-cells13 as well as preclinical and early phase studies using anti-BAFF-R monoclonal antibodies in CLL) investigators posit that CAR-T cells expressing BAFF (BAFF CAR-T cells, LMY-920 can become another strategy to treat refractory CLL.

This study will evaluate the safe dose and provide initial signal of the activity of BAFF CAR- T cells against relapsed CLL/SLL using a single lymphodepletion regimen and using a BAFF CAR-T cell manufacturing process that can be replicated in multiple academic institutions with the appropriate cellular manufacturing facilities.
