Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of donor lymphocyte infusions when given together with daratumumab and to see how well they work in treating participants with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back after a stem cell transplant. A donor lymphocyte infusion is a type of therapy in which lymphocytes (white blood cells) from the blood of a donor are given to a participant who has already received a stem cell transplant from the same donor. The donor lymphocytes may kill remaining cancer cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as daratumumab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving daratumumab and donor white blood cells may work better in treating participants with acute myeloid leukemia.
