Conditions: AML
Purpose: The aim of this protocol is to investigate a novel form of immune therapy for patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) who are in remission (CR) but who are at high risk for relapse.
Study summary: Primary Aim: To conduct a Phase 1/2 clinical trial of autologous CTL-mediated immunotherapy in a homogeneous group of patients with AML who have recently received an autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Specifically: Phase 1: To determine the MTD of autologous AML-reactive cultured CTL in patients with AML who have recently received an AHSCT. Phase 2: To determine 1 year progression-free survival of the study group vs institutional historical control group composed of a sequential series of recent patients who have received an AHSCT for AML.
Criteria: Inclusion Criteria (Initial Eligibility Screen): - Diagnosis of AML, not M3 - At least 10% of circulating leukocytes are AML blast cells - Age 18 through 75 - Sex male or female - Patient is considered a potential candidate for AHSCT Exclusion criteria (Initial Eligibility Screen): - Participation in another immunotherapy trial within 30 days - Presence of active malignancy other than AML - History of autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment - ECOG performance status of 3 or 4 - Major organ system dysfunction - Recent (30 days) or current use of steroids other than topical skin preparations - History of allogeneic transplant - Patients who, for any reason are not deemed candidates for AHSCT Eligibility for autologous CTL Infusion: Inclusion Criteria: - Patient has CTL that are in sufficient number and are suitable for infusion - Patient is stable, afebrile, engrafted, ECOG status 0-2, in CR and received AHSCT 45 - 60 days earlier. Exclusion or delay criteria: - Temperature > 38 C and/or known to be infected - Absence of engraftment ANC > 500 and Plt > 20,000 unsupported - Life expectancy less than 6 weeks - Autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment. - ECOG performance status of 3 or 4 - Major organ system dysfunction
