Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Objective Response Rate (ORR)
From Day 1 through 65.3 months after Day 1 dose

The ORR is defined as percentage of participants with best overall response of complete remission/response (CR) or partial remission/response (PR) based on investigator's assessment. For participants with clinically and/or radiologically evident EBV LPD or malignancies, CR is complete resolution of all clinical and radiologic evidence of lymphoma, confirmed by biopsy of the affected tissues when indicated, lasting for at least 3 weeks following completion of a cycle of tabelecleucel; and PR is a 50 % or greater reduction in the size of all lymphomatous lesions as determined by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurements of tumor volume, which was maintained for at least 3 weeks following completion of a cycle of tabelecleucel. For participants without clinically and/or radiologically evident tumors with increasing levels of EBV DNA, CR is clearance of EBV without subsequent development of EBV+ LPD; and PR is at least a 10-fold decrease in EBV DNA levels.

ArmTypeDescription
HCT EBV+ PTLD R/R RituximabEXPERIMENTALPatients with Epstein-Barr virus positive (EBV+) posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD) hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) who were relapse/refractory (R/R) to rituximab will receive IV infusion of tabelecleucel 2 × 10\^6 T-cells/kg on Days 1, 8, and 15 and will be observed for 3 weeks. After the observation period, additional courses (2 courses) may have been provided in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After 3 week observation period, additional courses (2 courses) may have been provided in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
EBV+ AID-LPDEXPERIMENTALPatients with EBV+ acquired immunodeficiency (AID) lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD) will receive IV infusion of tabelecleucel 2 × 10\^6 T-cells/kg on Days 1, 8, and 15 and will be observed for 3 weeks. After the observation period, additional courses (2 courses) may have been provided in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
EBV+ PID-LPDEXPERIMENTALPatients with EBV+ primary immunodeficiency (PID) LPD will receive IV infusion of tabelecleucel 2 × 10\^6 T-cells/kg on Days 1, 8, and 15 and will be observed for 3 weeks. After the observation period, additional courses (2 courses) may have been provided in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
EBV+ ViremiaEXPERIMENTALPatients with EBV+ viremia will receive IV infusion of tabelecleucel 2 × 10\^6 T-cells/kg on Days 1, 8, and 15 and will be observed for 3 weeks. After the observation period, additional courses (2 courses) may have been provided in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
EBV+ LeiomyosarcomaEXPERIMENTALPatients with EBV+ leiomyosarcoma (LMS) will receive IV infusion of tabelecleucel 2 × 10\^6 T-cells/kg on Days 1, 8, and 15 and will be observed for 3 weeks. After the observation period, additional courses (2 courses) may have been provided in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
EBV+ LymphomaEXPERIMENTALPatients with EBV+ lymphoma will receive IV infusion of tabelecleucel 2 × 10\^6 T-cells/kg on Days 1, 8, and 15 and will be observed for 3 weeks. After the observation period, additional courses (2 courses) may have been provided in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
EBV+ NPCEXPERIMENTALPatients with EBV+ nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) will receive IV infusion of tabelecleucel 2 × 10\^6 T-cells/kg on Days 1, 8, and 15 and will be observed for 3 weeks. After the observation period, additional courses (2 courses) may have been provided in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
EBV+ Other Solid TumorEXPERIMENTALPatients with EBV+ other solid tumors will receive IV infusion of tabelecleucel 2 × 10\^6 T-cells/kg on Days 1, 8, and 15 and will be observed for 3 weeks. After the observation period, additional courses (2 courses) may have been provided in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Frequently asked questions about EBV-specific T cells

What is EBV-specific T cells used for?

EBV-specific T cells is an investigational cell therapy being studied for the treatment of EBV-induced Lymphomas and other EBV-associated malignancies. It is also being evaluated in transplant patients with EBV viremia who are at high risk for developing a recurrent EBV lymphoma.

Who makes EBV-specific T cells?

EBV-specific T cells is being developed by Atara Biotherapeutics, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company. The company is listed on the stock exchange under the ticker symbol ATRA.

What phase is EBV-specific T cells in?

EBV-specific T cells is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational therapy and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. One Phase 2 clinical trial for this therapy has been completed.

What clinical trials is EBV-specific T cells in?

EBV-specific T cells has been studied in one completed Phase 2 clinical trial with the identifier NCT01498484. This trial enrolled 87 participants and evaluated the therapeutic effects of Epstein-Barr Virus immune T-lymphocytes derived from a normal HLA-compatible or partially-matched third-party donor.

Is EBV-specific T cells a monoclonal antibody?

EBV-specific T cells is classified as a monoclonal antibody modality, though it is described as an immune T-lymphocyte therapy. The therapy is derived from donor cells and is being investigated for its effects on EBV-related conditions, including lymphomas and malignancies.
