CAR-T Based Immunotherapy for B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Study Purpose

This treatment uses T cells already present in the participant's body that have been modified outside of the body by a lentivirus and then returned by an infusion to target the cancer. Lentivirus is a family of viruses that can be used by scientists to alter cells. The specific type of cells that will be used is called UF-KURE19 chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T cells). The CAR-T cells that will be reinfused into the body are modified using a lentivirus that is no longer active. The investigators are evaluating UF-KURE19 because it uses a process that is shorter than other approved CAR-T cells. While the shorter manufacture time can be an advantage, the safety of this approach has not been demonstrated.

Who Can Participate

Participants 18 years and older who have been diagnosed with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma treated may be eligible for this study.
