Clinical Trial Summary

This is a multi-institutional Simon's optimal two-stage phase II trial of CD3/CD19 depleted, ALT-803 activated, haploidentical donor NK cells and subcutaneous ALT-803 given after lymphodepleting chemotherapy (CY/FLU) for the treatment of refractory or released acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).

Recruitment information / eligibility

• Status: Completed
• Enrollment: 8
• Est. completion date: December 15, 2019
• Est. primary completion date: December 15, 2019
• Accepts healthy volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers
• Gender: All
• Age group: 18 Years to 70 Years

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and meets one of the following disease

criteria:

• Primary induction failure:
• De novo AML - no CR after 2 or more chemotherapy induction attempts
• Secondary AML (from MDS or treatment related): no CR after 1 or more chemotherapy induction attempts
• Relapse after chemotherapy: not in CR after 1, 2, or 3 re-induction attempts
• Patients > 60 years of age, the 1 cycle of chemotherapy is not required
• Relapse after hematopoietic stem cell transplant:
• Relapse must have occurred > 18 months after transplant
• No re-induction required and no more than 1 re-induction attempt is allowed
• Notes:

1. For hypomethylating agents (i.e. decitabine, azacitidine) to count as an induction/re-induction attempt, the patient must have completed a minimum of 3 monthly cycles

2. For targeting agents (i.e. sorafenib) to count as an induction/re-induction attempt, the patient must have completed a minimum of 1 month without attaining CR

3. 7+3 followed by 5+2 counts as TWO induction attempts

4. Use of hydroxyurea is permitted to control blasts until Day -3 per Section 8.7

5. A history of AML related CNS involvement is allowed if CSF analysis is negative on 2 test dates at least 2 weeks apart prior to study treatment. The use of ongoing CNS maintenance therapy is allowed while on study.

• HLA-haploidentical related donor (aged 12 to 75 years) with donor/recipient match based on a minimum of intermediate resolution DNA based Class I typing of the A and B locus (at least 2/4 class I allele)
• Karnofsky Performance Status = 60%
• Adequate organ function within 14 days of study registration (28 days for pulmonary

and cardiac) defined as:

• Creatinine: = 2.0 mg/dL
• Hepatic: AST and ALT < 3 x upper limit of institutional normal
• Pulmonary Function: oxygen saturation = 90% on room air; PFT's required only if symptomatic or prior known impairment - must have pulmonary function >50% corrected DLCO and FEV1.
• Cardiac Function: LVEF = 40% by echocardiography, MUGA or cardiac MRI, no uncontrolled angina, severe uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias, or electrocardiographic evidence of acute ischemia or active conduction system abnormalities.
• Able to be off prednisone or other systemic immunosuppressive medications for at least 3 days prior to NK cell infusion (excluding preparative regimen pre-medications) .
• Sexually active females of child bearing potential and males with partners of child bearing potential must agree to use effective contraception during therapy and for 4 months after completion of therapy .
• Voluntary written consent prior to the performance of any research related procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Acute leukemias of ambiguous lineage
• Pregnant or breastfeeding - The agents used in this study include those that fall under Pregnancy Category D - have known teratogenic potential. Women of child bearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at screening
• Active autoimmune disease requiring systemic immunosuppressive therapy
• History of severe asthma and currently on systemic chronic medications (mild asthma requiring inhaled steroids only is eligible)
• New or progressive pulmonary infiltrates on screening chest X-ray or chest CT scan unless cleared for study by Pulmonary. Infiltrates attributed to infection must be stable/improving (with associated clinical improvement) after 1 week of appropriate therapy (4 weeks for presumed or documented fungal infections).
• Uncontrolled bacterial, fungal or viral infections including HIV-1/2 or active hepatitis C/B - chronic asymptomatic viral hepatitis is allowed
• Received any investigational agent within the 14 days before the start of study treatment (1st dose of fludarabine)
• Prior ALT-803

Related Conditions & MeSH terms

• Acute Myeloid Leukemia
• Leukemia

Intervention

Biological:
• ALT-803
Preparative Regimen: Fludarabine 25 mg/m2 x 5 days start day -6 Cyclophosphamide 60 mg/kg x 2 days on day -5 and -4 ALT-803 Stimulated Donor NK Cells: The apheresis product (collected day -1) will be enriched for NK cells with the large-scale CliniMacs® device (Miltenyi) by depletion of CD3+ cells to remove T-lymphocytes and depletion of CD19+ cells to remove B-lymphocytes. The NK cell enriched product will be stimulated by overnight incubation with 36.1 ng/mL ALT-803 under GMP conditions and infused on day 0. ALT-803 to Facilitate NK Cell Survival and Expansion: ALT-803 at 10 mcg/kg subcutaneously (SC) with the 1st dose administered on day 0 (no sooner than 4 hours post NK cells), day +5 and day +10 for 3 doses total
