Cytokine Induced Memory-like NK Cell Adoptive Therapy After Haploidentical Donor Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (NCT02782546)

A Phase II Study of Cytokine Induced Memory-like NK Cell Adoptive Therapy After Haploidentical Donor Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

🔵 Active, Not Recruiting Phase2 💊 Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Washington University School of Medicine

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This is a standard phase 2 study powered to demonstrate improvement in the 100 day leukemia free survival to 30% from \<10% expected with the use of reduced intensity haplo-HCT in this extremely high-risk patient cohort (based on the institutional experience using non-myeloablative / reduced intensity conditioning in a similar patient cohort). A formal safety evaluation will be done after every 6th patient enrolled and the trial will be stopped if noted to have unusually higher engraftment failure (acute GVHD rates (\>60% any grades or \>30% grade III/IV or ≥ 50% severe cGVHD) or engraftment failure rates (≥15%).
