Natural Killer Cell (CYNK-001) IV Infusion or IT Administration in Adults With Recurrent GBM (CYNK001GBM01)

August 9, 2022 updated by: Celularity Incorporated

A Phase I Study of Human Placental Hematopoietic Stem Cell Derived Natural Killer Cells (CYNK-001) in Adults With Recurrent Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM)

This study will find the maximum safe dose (MSD) or maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CYNK-001 which are NK cells derived from human placental CD34+ cells and culture-expanded. CYNK-001 cells will be given after lymphodepleting chemotherapy for the systemic cohort (IV) (intravenous). The intratumoral cohort (IT) will not be giving lymphodepletion. The safety of this treatment will be evaluated, and researchers want to learn if NK cells will help in treating recurrent glioblastoma multiforme.

Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Experimental: Intravenous IV ( Recurrent and Surgical ) GBM
Cohort 1A ( recurrent GBM) will receive CYNK-001 at a dose of 1.2 x 10^9 cells intravenous ( IV) on Days 0, 7, and 14 and will include up to 6 subjects. The subjects will be followed for a 42 day DLT period from the initial CYNK-001 infusion (or 28 days after the last dose). No other treatment interventions are planned between the last day of CYNK-001. In the event of DLTs, Cohort 1C ( recurrent GBM dose-De escalation) will receive CYNK-001 at a dose of 600 x 10^6 cells (IV) on Days 0, 7, 14, and will include up to 6 subjects who will be followed for a 42-day DLT period from the initial CYNK-001 infusion (or 28 days after the last dose. Cohort 1B (surgical cohort) will receive CYNK-001 at the maximum safe dose (MSD) (either 1.2x10^9 cells or 600x10^6 cells) (IV) at Days 0, 7, 14, and will include up to 6 subjects. The tumor resection surgery will be performed after the last CYNK-001 infusion during the DLT period.
