New treatment option for Relapsed Adult AML
Official title Adapt NK for High Risk Myeloid Diseases as Bridge to Allo HSCT
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07591649
What this study is testing
What is AdaptNK?
AdaptNK is an investigational medicine, given as an injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for relapsed adult aml.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a multi-institutional Phase I/II study of an allogeneic KIR-HLA mismatched NK cell infusion (AdaptNK) and a short course of subcutaneous interleukin-2 (IL-2) administered after lymphodepleting chemotherapy [cyclophosphamide (CY)/fludarabine (FLU)] in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). AdaptNK is a natural killer (NK) cell product that is enriched for NK cells with an "adaptive", or human cytomegalovirus (CMV)-induced, phenotype.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
