Treatment with previous CART CD19 therapy is permitted, but is not mandatory. / o\tARM B: T-ALL with relapsed or refractory disease not responding to conventional chemotherapy and with no other curative therapy available."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Patients diagnosed with ALL must be suitable for allogeneic HSCT and willing to proceed to transplant if the CART treatment induces complete remission and the investigator believes it is the best option."}

Male partner should use a condom. Women of child-bearing potential are defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant. Highly effective contraception methods include, as defined by the CTFG recommendations (available at h t t p s : / / w w w . h m a . e u / f i l e a d m i n / d a t e i e n / H u m a n _ M e d i c i n e s / 0 1 -About_HMA/Working_Groups/CTFG/2014_09_HMA_CTFG_Contraception.pdf): o\tCombined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal, transdermal) o\t Progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable, implantable) o\tIntrauterine device (IUD) o\tIntrauterine hormone-releasing system o\tBilateral tubal occlusion o\tVasectomized partner (provided that partner is the sole sexual partner of the trial participant and that the vasectomized partner has received medical assessment of the surgical success) o\tSexual abstinence (only if defined as refraining from heterosexual intercourse during the entire period of risk associated with the study treatments. The reliability of sexual abstinence needs to be evaluated in relation to the duration of the clinical trial and the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject). Sexually active males should use a condom during intercourse for at least 12 months after the infusion and until CAR-T cells are no longer present on two consecutive tests."}
