Brief summary
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.
Interventions
Planned Starting dose dor IV 1.2x10\^9 cells/dose
Planned starting dose for IT 200 x10\^6 +/- 50 x10\^6 cells dose

Intervention model description
2 modalities Systemic vs Intratumoral. For systemic experimental: Cyclophosphamide at Day -3 followed by CYNK-001. On Days 0, 7, and 14. Experimental IntraTumoral, Ommaya placement surgery 7 days prior to CYNK-001 administrations at Days 0, 7 and 14

Patients with chronic HBV infection or patients with current or a history of HCV infection are allowed if: 1. have an HBV viral load below the limit of quantification and be on viral suppressive therapy 2. have current HCV infection, they should be on concurrent HCV treatment and the HCV viral load must be below the limit of quantification 3. have a history of HCV infection should have completed curative antiviral treatment and require HCV viral load below the limit of quantification
Exclusion criteria

Subjects on growth factors therapy with less than 4 weeks washout period (for short-acting growth factors, such as G-CSF, GM-CSF 5-day wash-out for longer-acting factors (such as Neulasta) 10 days 3. Radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or other investigational agents within 4 weeks 4. Prior cellular or gene therapy at any time 5. Clinical or laboratory signs for immunodeficiency or under immunosuppressive medication or steroids greater than15 mg prednisone or equivalent per day 6. History of malignancy, other than GBM, unless the subject has been free of disease for \> 3 years from the date of signing the ICF. Exceptions include the following noninvasive malignancies: basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, carcinoma in situ of the breast, Incidental histological finding of prostate cancer (TNM stage of T1a or T1b) 7. Active autoimmune disease other than controlled connective tissue disorder or those who are not on active therapy
