Study Description(click to expand)

This study is a multicenter, open-label phase 2 trial of Orca-T in adults with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome who are not able to receive myeloablative (high intensity) conditioning and are eligible for reduced intensity conditioning (RIC)-alloHCT or non-myeloablative (NMA)-alloHCT with an 8/8 human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related or unrelated donor. The trial is designed to further characterize the safety and tolerability of Orca-T and to perform an initial assessment of the efficacy of Orca-T in participants eligible for RIC-alloHCT or NMA-alloHCT. Participants will receive Orca-T after the investigator's choice from the RIC and NMA regimens followed by single-agent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis with tacrolimus. Prior to the initiation of this study (the SERENE-T Study), a phase 1 study (clinicaltrials.gov number: NCT05088356) was conducted to examine the safety and efficacy of Orca-T in participants receiving RIC-alloHCT. Participants have also been treated previously with Orca-T during an ongoing phase 1b/3 study (NCT05316701 and NCT04013685) in participants receiving a MAC regimen. The results of these studies have prompted Orca Bio to further evaluate Orca-T in participants receiving RIC or NMA.

Eligibility Summary

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of Orca-T in participants undergoing reduced intensity or non-myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) for hematologic malignancies. Orca-T is an allogeneic stem cell and T-cell immunotherapy biologic manufactured for each patient (transplant recipient) from the mobilized peripheral blood of a specific, unique donor. It is composed of purified hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), purified regulatory T cells (Tregs), and conventional T cells (Tcons).
