Pilot Study of Memory-like Natural Killer (ML NK) Cells After TCRαβ T Cell Depleted Haploidentical Transplant in AML

A Phase I/II Pilot Study of Memory-like NK Cells to Consolidate TCRαβ T Cell Depleted Haploidentical Transplant in High-risk AML


Sponsor

Washington University School of Medicine

Enrollment

68 participants

Start Date

May 15, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This trial represents a single institution phase I/II pilot study with the primary objective of establishing the safety and feasibility of generating and infusing ML NK cells after TCRαβ haplo-HCT.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This pilot study is testing a specialized immune cell therapy — called memory-like natural killer (ML NK) cells — given after a stem cell transplant from a half-matched family donor (haploidentical transplant) in patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The goal is to see whether these enhanced immune cells can prevent the leukemia from coming back after transplant. **You may be eligible if...** - You have been diagnosed with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) - Your leukemia is in remission or at a very low level - You have specific high-risk genetic or molecular features that make relapse likely - You are eligible for a stem cell transplant from a half-matched family donor **You may NOT be eligible if...** - Your AML is not in remission - You do not have the high-risk features required for this study - You are not a suitable candidate for haploidentical stem cell transplant - You have significant organ dysfunction or infections Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

DRUGRabbit Anti thymocyte globulin

rATG is administered intravenously over 6-18 hours for a total of 2 to 3 doses. The daily dose is based on body weight and lymphocyte count.

DRUGBusulfan

Busulfan is administered intravenously either Q6H or Q24H, with a recommended target Busulfan AUC of 70-90 mg\*h/L.

DRUGFludarabine

Fludarabine is administered intravenously at a dose of 40 mg/m\^2/dose once daily for 4 days.

DRUGThiotepa

Thiotepa is administered intravenously at a dose of 5 mg/kg/dose Q12H for 2 doses.

DRUGMelphalan

Melphalan is administered intravenously at a dose of 70 mg/m\^2/dose once daily for 2 days.

BIOLOGICALTCR alpha beta / CD19+ depleted haploidentical hematopoietic progenitor cell graft

The HPC product obtained from a haploidentical donor will undergo ex vivo TCR alpha beta and CD19+ depletion, and will be infused fresh on Day 0. There is no maximum limit for CD34+ dose. A maximum dose of 1 x 10\^5/kg recipient weight of TCRαβ cells should not be exceeded in the final HPC product.

BIOLOGICALmemory-like natural killer cells

The ML NK cells (dose: max capped at 20 x 10\^6/kg recipient weight, minimum dose allowed is 0.5 x 10\^6/kg recipient weight) will be infused on Day +7.

BIOLOGICALIL-2

IL-2 is administered subcutaneously at a dose of 1 million units/m\^2 on Days +7, +9, +11, +13, +15, +17, and +19 (7 doses total).

DRUGPlerixafor

If suboptimal collection of stem cells is predicted, plerixafor may be administered at a dose of 0.24 mg/kg subcutaneous injection once (maximum 40mg/dose). For patients with renal impairment, plerixafor will be administered at a dose of 0.16 mg/kg subcutaneous injection (maximum 27 mg/day).

BIOLOGICALGranulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor

G-CSF will be administered at a dose of 10 mcg/kg/day for 5 days, or 6 days if two days of collection are needed.

DEVICECliniMACS

After stem cells are collected by leukapheresis, in order to create the HPC product, the stem cells will be washed to remove platelets and the cell concentration will be adjusted per laboratory and CliniMACS technology recommendations. The cells are then labeled using the CliniMACS TCRαβ Biotin Kit and CD19+ immunomagnetic microbeads. After labeling, the cells are washed to remove unbound microbeads. The partially processed product is loaded on the CliniMACS device where labeled cells are depleted and the negative fraction is eluted off the device. The negative fraction is centrifuged and volume reconstituted to obtain the final product.
