Severe or uncontrolled intercurrent illness or laboratory abnormalities including 1. Active bacterial, viral, or fungal infection requiring systemic treatment (isolated fever may not constitute active infection in and of itself, (e.g., related to disease) 2. Symptomatic congestive heart failure (i.e., New York Heart Association stage III or IV) 3. Unstable angina, arrhythmia, or myocardial infarction (MI) within 6 months prior to Screening 4. Significant pulmonary dysfunction 5. Uncontrolled thromboembolic events or recent severe hemorrhage (i.e., within one year) 6. Any history of pulmonary embolism (PE) in the past 12 months or deep vein thrombosis (DVT) within three months of enrollment. Therapeutic dosing of anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin, low molecular weight heparin, Factor Xa inhibitors) is allowed for history of PE/DVT if greater than twelve and three months, respectively, from time of enrollment, and should be at a stable maintenance dose. 7. Auto-immune disease requiring immunosuppressive therapy within the last 24 months 7. Seropositive for and with evidence of active hepatitis B or C infection at time of Screening, or HIV seropositive 1. Subjects with a history of hepatitis B but have received antiviral therapy and have non-detectable viral DNA are eligible 2. Subjects seropositive because of hepatitis B virus vaccine with no signs or active infection are eligible 3. Subjects who had hepatitis C but have received antiviral therapy and show no detectable hepatitis C virus (HCV) viral RNA are eligible 8. Active central nervous system (CNS) involvement by malignancy 9. Any sign of active or prior CNS pathology including but not limited to history of epilepsy, seizure, paresis, aphasia, stroke, subarachnoid hemorrhage or CNS bleed, severe brain injury, dementia, cerebellar disease, Parkinson's disease, organic brain syndrome or psychosis 10. Active malignancy not related to myeloma that has required therapy in the last 3 years or is not in complete remission. Exceptions to this criterion include successfully treated non-metastatic basal cell or squamous cell skin carcinoma, or prostate cancer that does not require therapy. 11. Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding or females of childbearing potential not using an effective method of birth control 12. Subjects with any significant medical condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the subject from participating in study (or full access to medical records) as written including follow up, the interpretation of data or place the subject at unacceptable risk 13. Any vaccine ≤ 6 weeks before leukapheresis and/or anticipation of the need for such a vaccine during the subject's participation in the study 14. Concurrent enrollment on another study using an investigational therapy for the treatment of RRMM

Detailed Description

This is a Phase II open-label study of anitocabtagene-autoleucel * in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM). The study will have the following sequential phases: screening, enrollment, pre-treatment with lymphodepleting chemotherapy, treatment with anitocabtagene-autoleucel , and follow-up. If necessary, bridging therapy is allowed to control growth of MM disease while anitocabtagene-autoleucel is being manufactured. Following a single infusion of anitocabtagene-autoleucel both safety and efficacy data will be assessed. Efficacy will be assessed monthly for the first 6 months, then quarterly up to 2 years, or upon patient relapse. The primary analysis will be conducted approximately 13 months after the final patient is dosed. This will allow approximately 12 months follow up from the time of the last observed response on study. Long-term safety data will be collected under a separate long-term follow up study for up to 15 years per health authority guidelines. *Anitocabtagene-autoleucel drug product consists of autologous T cells that have been genetically modified ex vivo to express a D-domain Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR), followed by a cluster of differentiation 8 (CD8) hinge and transmembrane region that is fused to the intracellular signaling domains for 4-1BB and CD3ξ, that specifically recognizes B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA). The active substance of anitocabtagene-autoleucel is CAR+ CD3+ T cells that have undergone ex vivo T-cell activation, gene transfer by replication-deficient lentiviral vector, and expansion.
