Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:1. Patients who are willing to sign the informed consent form and have good compliance;
2. Aged 18-70 years, male or female;
3. CD20-positive B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with immunohistochemistry(IHC), with the
following diagnostic: Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), or Primary mediastinal
large B cell lymphoma (PMBCL), or Follicular lymphoma transformed large B cell
lymphoma (TFL) , or High grade B cell lymphoma(HGBCL);
4. Previously received≥2nd-line adequate therapy or autologous hematopoietic stem cell
transplantation (ASCT), including: a) Received anthracycline-containing drugs and
rituximab or other CD20-targeted drugs (except CD20-negative tumors); b) Definition of
line: Stable disease (SD) after receiving a first-line therapy for at least 4 cycles
or progressive disease (PD), and SD after a second-line therapy for at least 2 cycles
or PD; c) For transformed follicular lymphoma (TFL), patients must be treated
adequately against FL, and after transformation, must have received at least once the
therapy against TFL, and become relapsed or refractory after the last therapy;
5. In relapsed or refractory status at screening: a) Definition of relapse: Remission
(including partial remission (PR) or complete remission (CR)) after treatment with at
least the standard therapy regimen, and then PD; b)Definition of refractory: i.
Non-response to the last therapy: The best response by the last therapy is SD or PD,
and the duration is less than 6 months; ii. Relapse or progression (it must be proved
by biopsy) after ASCT, including: Relapse or PD within 12 months after ASCT; if a
salvage therapy is received, the patient is non-response (SD or PD) to the last
therapy;
6. According to Lugano Criteria (Cheson2014), at least one measurable lesion exists;
7. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-1;
8. Adequate bone marrow reserve, defined as: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.0×10^9/L;
Absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) ≥ 0.3×10^9/L; Platelet (PLT) ≥50×10^9/L;
9. Proper organ function, defined as: Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 3 Upper Limit of
Normal (ULN); Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 3 ULN(AST and ALT≤5 ULN are required
for the patients with hepatic dysfunction due to tumor cell infiltration) ; Total
serum bilirubin ≤ 2 ULN, unless there exists concurrent Gilbert syndrome; patients
with Gilbert syndrome, with total serum bilirubin ≤ 3 ULN and direct bilirubin ≤ 1.5
ULN, may be included; Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 ULN or creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min
(Cockcroft-Gault formula); Minimum pulmonary reserve, defined as Grade ≤ 1 dyspnea,
and blood oxygen saturation > 91% at non-oxygen inhalation status;
10. Women with child-bearing potential are negative in blood/urine pregnancy tests within
7 d prior to infusion of U16 infusion; any male or female patient with child-bearing
potential must agree to adopt effective contraceptive measures throughout the study,
and at least one year after administration of the investigational therapy.
11. Qualified T cell function;
12. Vascular conditions for apheresis, and no other contraindications for apheresis;
13. Elution period of CD20 monoclonal antibody at least 3 months before U16 infusion;
14. Life expectancy more than 3 months.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Patients with other malignant tumors, except for disease-free survival for more than 3
years or carcinoma in-situ;
2. Patients with lymphoma involved with atrium or ventricle;
3. Used immunosuppressants, hormones or high-dose chemotherapy within 2 weeks before
signing the informed consent form, or planned to use immunosuppressants or
hormones(specifically referring to systemic therapy) before apheresis, except for
local or inhaled corticosteroid therapy;
4. Patients complying with any of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and/or hepatitis B
e antigen (HBeAg) positive; hepatitis B e antibody (HBe-Ab) and/or hepatitis B core
antibody (HBc-Ab) positive and HBV-DNA copies being more than the lower limit of
detection; hepatitis C antibody (HCV-Ab) positive and HBV-RNA copies being more than
the lower limit of detection; anti-treponemia pallidum antibody (TP-Ab) positive;
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody positive; EBV-DNA, and CMV-DNA copies
being more than the lower limit of detection;
5. Patients with bacteria, fungi, viruses, mycoplasma or other types of infections, and
difficult for controlling by researcher's judgment;
6. Patients with active primary or secondary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma (a
patient with CNS disease symptoms must receive lumbar puncture to exclude CNS
lymphoma);
7. Patients with existing central nervous system disease or with a history of central
nervous system disease, e.g., epileptic seizure, cerebral ischemia/hemorrhage,
dementia, cerebellum disease, or any autoimmune disease involved with central nervous
system;
8. Patients with cardiac angioplasty or stent implantation within 12 months before
signing the informed consent form, or myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris,
other clinically significant heart disease history judged by researcher;
9. Patients need urgent clinical emergencies (such as intestinal obstruction or vascular
compression, etc.) due to the obstruction or compression of lymphoma judged by
researcher;
10. Patients previously received CAR-T cell therapy with CD20 target;
