This study is testing Allo-QuadCAR01-T, a new off-the-shelf CAR-T therapy for people with hard-to-treat B-cell cancers. Unlike current CAR-T treatments that use a patient's own cells, this therapy uses donor cells that are ready to use, which can save time and reduce costs. It targets two proteins, CD19 and CD20, to lower the chance of relapse and uses gene editing to make it safer. The trial has three parts: first to find a safe dose, then to confirm it, and finally to test how well it works in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Patients will get one infusion after chemotherapy to prepare their body. The main goal is to check safety and see how many patients have a complete response by Week 13. About 160 patients will take part, and researchers will follow them for up to 15 years.

Lymphomagenesis is partially known, and some risk factor are identified like those inducing immune deficiencies: chronic exposure to HIV, immune suppressor therapies or commun variable immunodeficiency. Parts of the mechanisms leading to NHL development after pesticide exposure are the disruption of immune surveillance against cancer cell. Pro-oncogenic action of metabolites is the most important mechanisms of action for pesticides. Thus, pesticides are metabolized in pro-oxidant compounds disturbing the redox homeostasis in the haematopoietic and immune cells precursors, promoting proliferation and survival, and inducing DNA breaks. Some of them induce direct DNA breaks and non-conform reparation, leading to activation of oncogenes; and other induces transcription factors for oncogenic signalling pathways. DNA reparation and adaptation to a higher ROS level are associated with resistance against cytotoxic chemotherapy treatment with induction of detoxification mechanism by tumour cells. That DNA repair pathways, which are targeted by chemotherapy could also explain a part of chemo-resistance. It was therefore suggested that DLBCL dependence to specific DNA repair pathways could be targeted to hamper repair of intrinsic DNA damage occurring during B-lymphoma cells proliferation or to increase DNA damage induced by chemotherapy.

The link between the products of synthetic chemistry and cancer is at the heart of much research. Recent work has identified the use of plant protection agents by farmers as a risk factor for developing non-Hodgkin lymphoma, including diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common histology. Different biological models were used to understand the role of pesticides in lymphomagenesis. To summarize, most pesticides act at the cellular and molecular level, on different signaling pathways. After metabolized by cytochrome P450, these compounds generally become pro-oxidants. The increase in reactive oxygen species rate (SAR) causes the activation of signaling pathways involved in cell proliferation and survival. But deregulation of oxidative status does not in itself justify the specificity of the impact of pesticides on specific pathologies. Several agents have a genotoxic effect, others induce the activation of signaling pathways by binding to transcription factors and others have immunomodulating properties.
