Arm group label:
Pirtobrutinib and CAR T Cells
Summary:
This is a phase I, interventional, single arm, open label, treatment study designed to
evaluate the safety and efficacy of LV20.19 CAR -T cells with pirtobrutinib bridging and
maintenance in adult patients with B cell malignancies that have failed prior therapies.
Detailed description:
This is the first study to evaluate the safety and impact of the combination of
pirtobrutinib and LV20.19 CAR-T cells.
Pirtobrutinib is a first-in-class non-covalent Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor.
The safe dose of this agent has been identified the BRUIN study as 200 mg daily
administered as an oral agent. As a single agent, the toxicity profile has been favorable
and does not overlap with other covalent BTK inhibitors with minimal cardiotoxicity and
bleeding complications.

Special Criteria Regarding Fertility and Contraception
Female subjects of reproductive potential (women who have reached menarche or women
who have not been post-menopausal for at least 24 consecutive months, i.e., who have
had menses within the preceding 24 months, or have not undergone a sterilization
procedure [hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy]) must have a negative serum or
urine pregnancy test performed at screening.
Due to the high-risk level of this study, while enrolled, all subjects must agree
not to participate in a conception process (e.g., active attempt to become pregnant
or to impregnate, sperm donation, in vitro fertilization). Additionally, if
participating in sexual activity that could lead to pregnancy, the study subject
must agree to use reliable and double barrier methods of contraception during the
follow-up period of the protocol.
Acceptable birth control includes a combination of two of the following methods:
• Combined estrogen and progestin containing hormonal contraception associated with
inhibition of ovulation given orally, intravaginally, or transdermally
• Progestin-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation
given orally, by injection, or by implant
• Intrauterine device (IUD)
• Intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS)
• Vasectomized partner
• Sexual abstinence: considered a highly effective method only if defined as
refraining from heterosexual intercourse during an entire period of risk associated
with the study treatment. The reliability of sexual abstinence will be evaluated in
relation to the duration of the study and to the usual lifestyles of the patient.
• Female sterilization
• Fallopian tube implants (if confirmed by hysterosalpingogram) Oocyte donation is
prohibited during the duration of participation on this protocol and for 1 month
after the last dose of study drug.
Subjects who are not of reproductive potential (women who are premenarche or have
been post-menopausal for at least 24 consecutive months which is non-therapy induced
or have undergone hysterectomy tubal ligation, salpingectomy, and/or bilateral
oophorectomy or men who have documented azoospermia) are eligible without requiring
the use of contraception.
