Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: baltaleucel-T Treatment consists of 2 infusions of 2x10E7 cells/m2 given on Days 1 and 15 intravenously via a peripheral or central line over a 1 to 10 minute period. Subjects who tolerate the study treatment well and who do not require treatment with an alternative chemotherapeutic agent will be eligible for up to 3 additional infusions of 2x10E7 cells/m2 administered at week 8, month 3 and month 6. |
