Leukemia

This study enrolls patients that have been diagnosed with acute leukemia associated with a KMT2A (MLL) gene rearrangement (referred to as KMT2Arearranged, or KMT2A-R).

CHOP in collaboration with AbbVie, is conducting a study for pediatric patients from 1 year of age to 25 years of age with relapsed or refractory aggressive mature B-cell neoplasms (including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Burkitt and Burkitt-like lymphoma/leukemia).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Cart 19 cells therapy as measured by overall remission rate, which includes Complete Remission and Complete Remission with incomplete blood count recovery assessment in infants to adults.
