Providing access of BPX-501 gene modified T cells and rimiducid to pediatric patients who do not meet the eligibility criteria of the BP-U-004 study.
This is an expanded access protocol of BPX-501 T cells infused after T cell-depleted HSCT in pediatric patients with non-malignant hematologic disorders eligible for treatment on the BP-U-004 study. The purpose of this protocol is to provide access to the CaspaCIDe system combination product (BPX-501 gene modified T cells and rimiducid) to patients on a case by case basis who do not meet the BP-U-004 protocol eligibility criteria. BPX-501 infusion can enhance immune reconstitution with the potential for reducing the severity and duration of severe acute GVHD.
Study Type
EXPANDED_ACCESS
BPX-501 T cells are genetically modified with a suicide safety switch. The cells are infused after T cell-depleted HSCT to potentially enhance immune reconstitution while reducing severity and duration of GVHD.
Rimiducid induces activation of the Caspase 9 suicide gene in BPX-501 T cells inducing apoptosis of the modified T cells in case of GVHD
