About this study

Official title: Safety Trial of Natural Killer (NK) Cell Donor Lymphocyte Infusions(DLI) From 6/6 Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) Matched Family Member Following Nonmyeloablative Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation (ASCT)

Evaluate the safety of natural killer (NK) cell infusion using CD56 monoclonal antibody selected with Miltenyi Biotec system following nonmyeloablative stem cell transplantation (SCT) from matched donors. This pilot study will evaluate toxicity including mortality, occurrence of acute graft versus host disease and other severe toxicity.

Read the detailed description

The use of non-selected donor lymphocyte infusions (DLIs) (to help early immune recovery and induce antitumor response) following nonmyeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is also complicated by the risk of acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) with 30-40% of patients experiencing grade III-IV aGVHD. Data suggests that the use of natural killer (NK) cells (instead of nonselected DLIs) in this setting may mediate a graft versus tumor (GVT) effect independently of aGVHD.

This pilot study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of donor natural killer (NK) cell selection and infusion following nonmyeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) from matched donors.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • NK Cell infusion using CD56 monoclonal antibodyDevice

    Also called CD56 monoclonal antibody

    The cells from leukapheresis will be natural killer (NK) cell selected using a CD56 antibody and a cell column system provided by Miltenyi Biotec. The target cell dose for each NK cell infusion will be up to 1 X 10(7) CD56+ cells/kg patient weight with less than 0.5 X 10(6) CD3+ cells/kg patient weight. The first NK cell infusion will be administered 6 weeks post transplant in patients who have ≤ grade II acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) at the time of infusion. Patients will be evaluated for toxicity and response until 20 weeks after the last NK Infusion.

  • Donor ApheresisProcedure or surgery

    Apheresis repeated daily up to 3 days until target dose of cells reached (preferably without donor receiving growth factors). Cells were transfused immediately after collection and processing. If collections occurred during initial mobilization at the time of stem cell transplant, the donor was off growth factor for >24 hours. These extra cell collections from the donor were sufficient for the natural killer cells used in the trial. The cells were NK selected using a CD56 antibody (CliniMACS CD56 Reagent), CliniMACSplus instrument and CliniMACS tubing set provided by Miltenyi Biotec using the company protocol (Miltenyi Biotec Inc, Auburn, California). Pre and post processing cell count, viability, Hematopoietic Progenitor Cell Assay (HPCA) and flow analysis were done.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Toxicity

    Evaluate the toxicity post-infusion including mortality, occurrence of acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) and other severe toxicity until a minimum of 8 weeks following the last infusion, then at least monthly for 3 additional months. Unacceptable toxicity was defined as grade ≥ III aGVHD of the gut or liver or Grade 4 aGVHD of the skin lasting > 7 days; other Grade 4 toxicity from the procedure in the major organs that lasted > 5 days; or treatment-related mortality (TRM). Though these infusions are provided early following transplantation and severe toxicity could still have occurred due to the primary transplant procedure, for this study any aGVHD or other toxicities occurring after the first day of infusion of the natural killer (NK) cell enriched Donor Lymphocyte Infusions (DLIs) is considered here as study related.

    Measured: 5 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Efficacy - Progression Free Survival

    Evaluate efficacy of natural killer (NK) cell infusions in terms of progression free survival (PFS) in number of months without disease progression.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Efficacy - Overall Survival

    Evaluate efficacy of natural killer (NK) cell infusions in terms of overall survival (OS).

    Measured: 8 years

  3. Efficacy - Disease Progression

    Evaluate efficacy of natural killer (NK) cell infusions in terms of number of patients with disease progression.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing NK Cell infusion using CD56 monoclonal antibody and Donor Apheresis in people with Lymphoma, run by David Rizzieri, MD at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Jun 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Toxicity (time frame: 5 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00586690, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Feb 2017.
