Study Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells with a chlorotoxin tumor-targeting domain in treating patients with MPP2+ glioblastoma that has come back (recurrent) or that is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressive). Vaccines made from a gene-modified virus may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells.

Primary Outcome

Will be assessed by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE version 5.0). Rate and associated 90% Clopper and Pearson binomial confidence limits (90% confidence interval) will be estimated for participants experiencing DLTs at the recommended phase 2 dose schedule. Tables will be created to summarize all toxicities and side effects by dose, time post treatment, organ, severity, and arm. 2. Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) 3. All other toxicities.
