Summary

This trial is testing a new treatment for multiple myeloma that involves infusing patients with a combination of cytokine-induced memory-like natural killer cells and KP1237, with low-dose IL-2. The primary objective is to establish the safety of this treatment, and to explore its efficacy in patients who have minimal residual disease in first remission prior to autologous stem cell transplant.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for newly diagnosed Multiple Myeloma patients who are transplant eligible, have responded to initial chemotherapy, still have minimal residual disease, and meet specific health criteria like good heart and kidney function. They must not have had certain prior treatments or other active cancers.
What is being tested?
The study tests a combination of CIML NK cells with KP1237 and low dose IL-2 in patients before they undergo an autologous stem cell transplant. It aims to establish safety and potential effectiveness in reducing remaining cancer cells.
What are the potential side effects?
While the trial's main focus is on safety, possible side effects may include reactions related to immune system activation such as fever or fatigue, infusion-related reactions, and effects from low-dose IL-2 like nausea or skin rashes.
