Summary
Study start date: September 25, 2025
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.This study focuses on a new way to help children and young adults with high-risk blood cancers that are in remission, but likely to return. It involves using special blood-making cells and white blood cells from a partially matched family member. These cells are altered in a lab before being transplanted into the patient. This study aims to test if this method, combined with chemotherapy and specific cell infusions, can be safe and effective in preventing the cancer from coming back. This approach is important because it offers a possible solution for patients who do not have a fully matched donor available, potentially improving their chances of survival. Participants in this study will receive a series of treatments involving chemotherapy and antibodies to prepare their body for the transplant. This preparation includes several medications given over a few days. After this, the altered donor blood cells are infused into the patient, followed by another set of donor cells about two weeks later. If the cancer type involves a specific marker, CD19+, an additional medication called Blinatumomab may be given to further help prevent cancer recurrence. The study will closely monitor the patients to evaluate the safety and effects of these treatments on their health and disease progression.
