Enrollment Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
- Diagnosis of EBV+ disorder
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status <= 3 for participants aged >= 16
years; Lansky score >= 20 for participants from 1 year to < 16 years
- Adequate organ function test results, unless organ dysfunction is considered to be due
to the underlying EBV-associated disease by the investigator
Cohort-specific Inclusion Criteria:
- For participants with PID LPD:
- Newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory LPD confirmed by biopsy-proven EBV+ LPD or
positive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytology with or without radiographically
measurable intracranial disease with EBV detected in CSF
- Participant must have systemic measurable disease and/ or CNS measurable disease
- Definitive therapy (eg, allogeneic HCT, gene therapy) for the underlying PID is
planned
- Participants with newly diagnosed disease should be ineligible for standard
first-line therapy for EBV+ LPD, as determined by the investigator
- For participants with AID LPD:
- Newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory LPD confirmed by biopsy-proven EBV+ LPD or
positive CSF cytology, with or without radiographically measurable intracranial
disease, with EBV detected in CSF
- Participant must have systemic measurable disease and/ or CNS measurable disease
- Participants who are human immunodeficiency virus positive (HIV+) must meet both
of the following criteria: Have an HIV viral load assessed by reverse
transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) below the lower limit of
detection and CD4 >= 50 cells/μL within 6 months prior to the first dose of
tabelecleucel
- Participants with newly diagnosed disease should be ineligible for standard
first-line therapy for EBV+ LPD, as determined by the investigator
- For participants with CNS PTLD:
- Newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory EBV+ CNS PTLD histologically confirmed by
biopsy-proven EBV+ CNS PTLD or positive CSF cytology with or without
radiographically measurable intracranial disease with EBV detected in CSF
- Participant may have systemic and CNS disease or CNS disease only
- Participants with newly diagnosed disease should be ineligible for standard
first-line therapy for EBV+ LPD, as determined by the investigator
- For participants with EBV+ PTLD, where standard first line therapy (rituximab and/or
chemotherapy) is not appropriate, including CD20-negative disease:
- Newly diagnosed, biopsy-proven EBV+ PTLD
- Ineligible for standard first-line therapy for EBV+ PTLD, as determined by the
investigator
- Participants must have systemic disease measurable per Lugano Classification
criteria, except when contraindicated or mandated by local practice, then MRI may
be used.
- For participants with sarcoma, including LMS:
- Newly diagnosed or failed systemic first-line therapy for EBV+ sarcoma.
Participants with newly diagnosed disease should be ineligible for standard
first-line therapy for EBV+ sarcoma, as determined by the investigator.
- Biopsy-proven EBV+ sarcoma
- Measurable disease using diagnostic PET/CT and/or MRI following RECIST 1.1
criteria
- For participants with CAEBV:
- Newly diagnosed or previously treated CAEBV
- Detectable EBV viremia on at least 2 occasions at a minimum of 90 days apart
- At least 3 active clinical findings (per Kimura H, et al. Front Immunol.
2017;8:1867) as: Fever >= 38.5°C; splenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, and/or
hepatomegaly; cytopenia affecting at least 2 or 3 lineages in the peripheral
blood (hemoglobin < 9 g/dL, platelets < 100 × 10^3/mL, neutrophils < 1 ×
10^3/mL); hypogammaglobulinemia; hemophagocytosis; hepatitis; neuropathy; rash;
and hydroa vacciniforme
- For participants with EBV+ viremia with HLH:
- Newly diagnosed or previously treated EBV+ viremia with HLH
- A molecular diagnosis consistent with HLH-2004 trial (per Henter JI, et al.
Pediatr Blood Cancer. 2007;48:124-31) OR 5 or more of the clinical symptoms (per
Jordan MB, et al. Blood. 2011;118:4041-4052): Fever >= 38.5°C; splenomegaly;
cytopenia affecting at least 2 or 3 lineages in the peripheral blood (hemoglobin
< 9 g/dL, platelets < 100 × 10^3/mL, neutrophils < 1 × 10^3/mL);
hypertriglyceridemia (fasting >= 265 mg/dL) and/or hypofibrinogenemia (<= 150
mg/dL); hemophagocytosis in bone marrow, spleen, lymph nodes, or liver; low or
absent natural killer cell (NK-cell) activity; ferritin >= 500 ng/mL; and
elevated soluble CD25
Exclusion Criteria:
- Burkitt, T-cell (except in the setting of HLH), natural killer/T-cell lymphoma/LPD,
Hodgkin, or transformed lymphoma
- Serious known active infections, defined as ongoing uncontrolled adenovirus infection
or infections requiring systemic therapy at the time of enrollment

Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) consensus
grading system or extensive chronic GvHD per National Institutes of Health (NIH)
consensus criteria at the time of the enrollment

- Within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) for any investigational
product and/ or any chemotherapy (systemic or intrathecal), targeted small
molecule therapy, or antibody/biologic therapy. Note: prior anti-CD20 antibody
use is permitted within the washout period if a subsequent disease response
assessment indicates disease progression
- Within <= 8 weeks for cellular therapies (EBV-CTLs, chimeric antigen receptor
