Background:
- Bone marrow stem cells, which are found in the bone marrow and blood stream, can be
collected and transplanted to treat a variety of types of cancer in a process known as
hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). When stem cells are taken from one
person, most commonly a sibling or a family member, and then given to another person,
this is referred to as allogeneic HSCT. Allogeneic HSCT has proven to be an especially
effective treatment for patients with some types of cancers of the blood (leukemia) and
certain solid tumors. The transplanted stem cells travel to the patient's bone marrow
and begin producing normal blood cells, and also attack patients cancer cells.
- Because allogenic HSCT does not always prevent the cancer from returning, researchers
are interested in determining whether another type of immune cell taken from the stem
cell donors white blood cells, called a "natural killer" (NK) cell, can be given in
addition to the HSCT to help fight the tumor. In the laboratory, NK cells have been
shown to kill tumor cells, but it is not yet know if this will occur when given to
patients after HSCT.
Objectives:
- To determine the safety, effectiveness, and immune system response of giving NK white
blood cells to individuals who have received allogeneic HSCT.
- To identify possible side effects from the treatment.
Eligibility:
- Donors: Stem cell donors whose blood matches one of the recipients on six out of six
human leukocyte antigen (HLA) (blood immune marker) types. The donor may not be the
identical twin of a recipient.
- Recipients: Individuals between 4 and 35 years of age who have been diagnosed with
pediatric solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatment, or individuals
between 4 and 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with leukemia that has not
responded to standard treatment.
- Other eligibility requirements which include a physical exam and blood laboratory
evaluation are included to make sure it is safe for both the donor to donate and the
recipient to undergo the transplant procedure.
Design:
- Donors and recipients will be screened with a full medical history and physical
examination, and will provide blood and urine samples; recipients will have tumor
imaging studies and other tests as required by the researchers.
- Donors:
- Participants will receive filgrastim injections (to stimulate the bone marrow) for 1
week to make stem cells travel from bone marrow to blood.
- Participants will provide stem cells and NK cells through apheresis.
- Recipients:
- Participants will have three cycles of chemotherapy to treat the underlying cancer and
weaken the immune system so that it will accept the donor cells.
- Participants will then receive preparative chemotherapy for the transplant and two days
after the last dose of chemotherapy, participants will have allogenic HSCT using the
donated stem cells.
- Participants will receive an infusion of NK cells on days 7 and 35 after the HSCT. -
Participants will remain in the hospital for monitoring after the HSCT and NK cell
treatments, and will be followed closely as outpatients for the first 6 months after the
transplant and then less frequently for at least 5 years.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Number of Patients Who Received 2 Doses of Natural Killer (NK) Cell Infusions | Participants received 2 doses of natural killer infusions within 56 days of hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). | within 56 days of hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) | |
Primary | Number of Patients Who Received the Highest Dose Level of NK Cells (1x10^6 NK Cells/kg for Patients With Related Donors and 1 x10^5 NK Cells/kg for Patients With Unrelated Donors) With Sustained Donor Lymphoid Engraftment | Donor engraftment is defined as >95% donor lymphoid chimerism (cluster of differentiation 3+T-cells on peripheral blood). | 100 days | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With Mild, Moderate and/or Severe Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease (cGVHD) | Chronic graft versus host disease was assessed by the National Institutes of Health Consensus Criteria. Severity is rated mild moderate or severe on a scale of 0 (no symptoms) -3 (severe symptoms) . Mild is signs and symptoms that do not interfere substantially with function and do not progress once appropriately treated with local therapy. Moderate is signs and symptoms interfere somewhat with function despite appropriate therapy. Severe is signs and symptoms limit function substantially despite appropriate therapy. Low grade is best outcome and high grade is worse outcome. | up to 3 years post-transplant | |
Secondary | Disease-free Survival | Disease free survival is defined as the time interval from start of treatment to documented evidence of disease progression. Progression was assessed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. Progressive disease is at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of all target lesions. | 12 months post-transplant | |
Secondary | Overall Survival Since Date of Transplant | Overall survival is defined as the time from date of transplant until date of death or date last known alive. | Up to 36 months post-transplant | |
Secondary | Number of Occurrences of Viral Infection and/or Reactivation in Allogeneic Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplant (PBSCT) Followed by Natural Killer-donor Lymphocyte Infusion (NK-DLI) | One or more occurrences of a new infection, reactivation or both (e.g. cytomegalovirus + flu, for example). Viral infections increase a patient's risk for a worse outcome and viral reactivation is a marker for T-cell immune dysregulation (i.e., inflammation). | Within 1-year post-transplant | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With a Decline in Interleukin 7 (IL-7) and Interleukin 15 (IL-15) Cell Numbers Post-Transplant | Cytokine levels are checked in a multiplex format according to manufacturer's instructions (Meso Scale Discovery, Gaithersburg, Maryland, United States of America (USA). | 3 years | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With Presence of Killer-cell Immunoglobulin-like Receptors (KIR) Gene Mismatch | Blood samples and/or buccal swabs were obtained and the presence of Killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) genes was determined by locus specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification followed by gel electrophoresis. KIR receptors were examined for a mismatch in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) ligand. A mismatch in the HLA ligand can signal increased anti-tumor activity, enhanced engraftment, and/or less infectious complications for patients. | Prior to stem cell transplant (Day 0) | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With Serious and Non-serious Adverse Events Assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria in Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.0) | Here is the count of participants with serious and non-serious adverse events assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria in Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.0). A non-serious adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence. A serious adverse event is an adverse event or suspected adverse reaction that results in death, a life threatening adverse drug experience, hospitalization, disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, congenital anomaly/birth defect or important medical events that jeopardize the patient or subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the previous outcomes mentioned | Date treatment consent signed to date off study, approximately 65 months and 2 days. |
