Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary study parameters are to evaluate the safety and dose-limiting toxicity of allogeneic NK cell infusions with an escalating dose up to 10x107/kg body weight ex vivo-expanded NK cells following immunosuppressive conditioning therapy in patients with AML not eligible for stem cell transplantation | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The secondary study parameters are to evaluate the in vivo lifespan of the expanded NK cells following adoptive transfer and to determine the biological and clinical activity of NK cell infusion in study participants | — |
