An Evaluation of the Toxicity and Therapeutic Effects of Epstein-Barr Virus-Immune (EBV)-Immune T-Lymphocytes Derived From Normal HLA-Compatible or Haplotype-Matched Donor in the Treatment of EBV-Associated Lymphoproliferative Diseases or Malignancies and Patients With Detectable Circulating Levels of EBV DNA Who Are at High Risk for EBV-Associated Lymphoproliferative Diseases


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the toxicity and therapeutic potential of adoptive immunotherapy with Epstein
Barr virus (EBV)-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes derived from HLA-histocompatible
related donors or haplotype-matched donor in the treatment of patients at high-risk or
with EBV-induced lymphomas and other lymphoproliferative diseases or malignancies in
immunocompromised hosts.

- Complete a single selected dose level phase II extension of this study to identify the
probability of achieving a CR of EBV lymphoma with EBV-specific T-cell therapy in
allogeneic HSCT recipients and immunodeficient patients.

- Evaluate in vivo biodistribution, expansion, and duration of engraftment of successive
doses of EBV-reactive lymphocytes within immunocompromised histocompatible hosts with
EBV-associated lymphoproliferative diseases, and correlate these findings with the
patients' T-cell populations, general immune status, and capacity to generate
allospecific antidonor response.

- Determine incidence, kinetics, and durability of pathologic and/or clinical responses
in this patient population treatment with infusions of these EBV-specific T cells.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study. Patients are stratified according to graft vs host
disease risk (high vs low).

Patients receive adoptive immunotherapy with allogeneic Epstein Barr virus (EBV)-specific
cytotoxic T lymphocytes IV on days 1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence
of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

The dose of allogeneic EBV-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes is escalated in cohorts of 3-6
patients until the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the
dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for 1 year.

Inclusion Criteria


DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:

- Pathologically documented Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) antigen-positive at risk or with
lymphoproliferative disease, lymphoma, or other EBV-associated malignancy

- Immunocompromised as a consequence of:

- Genetic or acquired immunodeficiency (including AIDS)

- Allogeneic bone marrow or organ transplant

- Normal lymphocyte donor related to patient or, for organ allografts, to organ*:

- Immunocompetent

- HLA compatible

- EBV seropositive

- HIV negative

- Organ donors at least HLA haplotype-identical with the lymphoma NOTE: *However,
if the HSCT donor is EBV seronegative or not available (e.g., a cord blood
transplant), EBV-specific T-cells generated from a normal seropositive related
or unrelated donor matched for at least 2 HLA alleles may be used.
