Personalized NK Cell Therapy in CBT
M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
Summary
This phase II clinical trial studies how well personalized natural killer (NK) cell therapy works after chemotherapy and umbilical cord blood transplant in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome, leukemia, lymphoma or multiple myeloma. This clinical trial will test cord blood (CB) selection for human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-C1/x recipients based on HLA-killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) typing, and adoptive therapy with CB-derived NK cells for HLA-C2/C2 patients. Natural killer cells may kill tumor cells that remain in the body after chemotherapy treatment and lessen the risk of graft versus host disease after cord blood transplant.
Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Progression-free survival (PFS) time. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Overall survival (OS) time. II. Transplant related mortality (TRM). III. Graft versus host disease (GVHD). IV. Infection OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 3 preparative regimens. MYELOABLATIVE REGIMEN 1: Patients receive anti-thymocyte globulin intravenously (IV) over 4 hours on days -9 and -8, fludarabine phosphate IV over 1 hour, clofarabine IV over 1 hour, and busulfan IV over 3 hours on days -7 to -4. Patients undergo total body irradiation (TBI) on day -3. NON-MYELOABLATIVE REGIMEN 2: Patients…
