Relapsed/Refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma | Biological: brexucabtagene autoleucel Drug: Cyclophosphamide Drug: Fludarabine Drug: Axicabtagene Ciloleucel | Phase 2 |
Study KTE-C19-102 enrolled participants with r/r MCL who have been treated with up to 5 prior regimens including a Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi) in Cohort 1 and Cohort 2. However, to fulfill FDA Postmarketing Requirement, Cohort 3 is added to the study. It will include participants with r/r MCL who have been treated with up to 5 prior regimens but have not received prior therapy with a BTKi.
The primary analysis in Cohort 1 and Cohort 2 is already completed. Data for Cohort 3 will be analyzed separately. Therefore, details for Cohort 3 were registered separately (NCT04880434) on ClinicalTrials.gov as this cohort will not be part of the main study analysis.
After the end of KTE-C19-102, subjects who received an infusion of anti-CD19 CAR T cells will complete the remainder of the 15-year follow-up assessments in a separate long-term follow-up study, KT-US-982-5968

- Change Over Time in European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions(EQ-5D) Mobility Scale Score [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 4, Month 3, and Month 6 ]The European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions Health Questionnaire (EQ-5D) is a participant-answered questionnaire scoring 5 dimensions of health: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. For each dimension the participant is asked for a three-level assessment of their health on the current day: "no problems" (1), "some problems" (2), "extreme problems" (3). EQ-5D health states, defined by the EQ-5D descriptive system, are converted into a single summary index by applying a formula that attaches values (also called QOL weights or QOL utilities) to each of the levels in each dimension. EQ-5D Summary Index values range from -0.11 (worst health state) to 1.00 (perfect health state). Positive numbers indicate improvement from baseline. The percentage of participants with each level of problem are reported.

- Change Over Time in EQ-5D Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Score [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 4, Month 3, and Month 6 ]EQ-5D is a standardized participant completed questionnaire that measures health-related quality of life and translates that score into an index value or utility score. EQ-5D-consists of two components: a health state profile and an optional visual analogue scale (VAS). The EQ5D-VAS records the participant's self-rated health on a vertical visual analogue scale, where the endpoints are labelled 'The best health you can imagine' and 'The worst health you can imagine'. EQ-5D-VAS: range 0 to 100. A higher score indicates better self-reported health status. A positive change indicates an improvement.
