Summary

This trial tests a new drug to fight acute myeloid leukemia in adults. It looks at safety, how it works, and if it's effective.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) that has returned after treatment or hasn't responded to previous treatments. Participants should have had a stem cell transplant over 90 days ago, no severe organ disease, and an ECOG Performance Status of ≤2. They can't join if they have severe kidney issues, high blast counts without reduction therapy, uncontrolled infections or heart problems, recent investigational drug use, known allergies to study drugs, or are pregnant/nursing.
What is being tested?
The trial tests WU-NK-101's safety and effectiveness in treating AML that's come back or isn't responding to other treatments. It's an early-phase study where researchers gradually increase the dose to find the safest amount that works while monitoring how it affects the body and leukemia.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of WU-NK-101 aren't listed here as it’s a new treatment under investigation, common side effects for similar leukemia therapies may include fatigue, fever, nausea and vomiting; potential risks will be closely monitored throughout the trial.

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Experimental: WU-NK-101Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
A non-engineered Natural Killer (NK) cell derived from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) that is cytokine-reprogrammed, expanded, and cryopreserved to create an allogeneic enhanced Memory-like anti-tumor NK cell therapy product. Each 28-day cycle of treatment consists of 3 doses of WU-NK-101 administered on Day 1, Day 8, and Day 15.
