The purpose of this study is to evaluate experimental gene-modified immune cells called IMPT-314 for the treatment of lymphomas that have either come back after treatment or have stopped responding to treatment. IMPT-314 is a type of drug called a chimeric antigen receptor T cell, also known as a CAR T cell. Researchers aim to examine the safety and side effects of IMPT-314, determine which dosages are safe for people to take, and evaluate how well the study drug destroys cancer cells. A virus will be used to introduce a gene that creates a protein called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) on the surface of the T cells, a type of white blood cell that fights infection and eliminates cancer cells. The study will collect and modify some of the patient’s own white blood cells and give them back to the patient in the hope that these cells can then identify and possibly kill cancerous cells.
