Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to estimate the efficacy of immunotherapy with ex vivo expanded haploidentical NK cells for children/young adults with primary high risk or refractory AML and relapsed AML.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Biological: NK cell infusions
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

Immunotherapy with NK cells may improve the treatment results in AML. For better efficiency high cell doses or several infusions of NK cells are required. For this purpose, donor NK cells are expanded in the presence of feeder K562-mbIL21-41BBL cell line.

For patients with high-risk primary AML a cycle of immunotherapy includes chemotherapy (HD-ARA-C+IDA) followed by three doses of NK cells infusion.

For patients with refractory/relapsed AML a cycle of immunotherapy includes chemotherapy (FLAG - fludarabine, cytarabine, G-CSF) followed by three doses of NK cells infusion.

A 2nd cycle of therapy may be administered if a recipient continues to meet the eligibility criteria.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: expanded haploidentical NK cell immunotherapy

After a cycle of chemotherapy a patient receive three intravenous infusions of expanded haploidentical NK cells.

Biological: NK cell infusions
Three doses of expanded haploidentical NK cells (30-100 x 10^6 cells /kg).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) (PR+ MLFS+CRi +CR) [30 days after every a course of NK immunotherapy]

    The proportion of patients with complete remission (CR), CR with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi), morphologic leukemia-free state (MLFS), and partial remission (PR) as measured by response criteria definitions for acute myeloid leukemia.

  2. Leukemia-free survival (LFS) [1 year]

    Time from achievement of CR/CRi/MLFS to the time of relapse, death in remission, or last follow-up.

  3. Overall survival (OS) [1 year]

    The proportion of patients with overall survival

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Persistence of infused NK cells [21 days after the first infusion]

    Days of persistence of donor NK cells

  2. Number of T, B, NK, activated T and NK cells after immunotherapy [30 days after the first infusion]

    Analysis of T, B, NK, activated T and NK cells numbers (cells/microL) after NK infusions.
