Optimizing Cellular and Humoral Immunity by Vaccinating With PCV13 Before and After CAR-T Therapy
Sponsor: H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute
Summary
The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether receiving the pneumococcal 13-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV13) before and after CD19-targeted CAR T cell therapy will optimize cellular and humoral immunity to pneumococcus.

CD19 targeted CAR T Cell Therapy
This is a personalized therapeutic approach that entails removal of T cells from patient's peripheral blood, genetic modification, activation and expansion in vitro to retarget cells against CD19 protein on the surface of B cells, and infusion of the genetically engineered cells back into the patient. CD19 is a surface protein that is expressed on B cells starting from early pre-B cells to mature fully differentiated B cells. Therefore, CD19-targeted CAR T cell therapy can effectively treat refractory B cell lymphomas.
