Brief Title: UARK 2013-05 A Study of Autologous Expanded Natural Killer Cell Therapy for Asymptomatic Multiple Myeloma
Official Title: A Phase II Study of Autologous Expanded Natural Killer Cell Therapy for Asymptomatic Multiple Myeloma
Study ID: NCT01884688
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and in vivo persistence and expansion of autologous and expansion of autologous, ex vivo expanded-natural killer(ENK) cells.
Detailed Description: To determine whether significant in vivo expansion of auto-ENK cells occurs, defined as a \> 4 fold increase in absolute cluster of differentiation 3(CD3)-cluster of differentiation 56 (CD56+) NK cell count/blood 7 days after infusion over the pre-study baseline level and the safety of the ENK cell therapy in research participants with high-risk asymptomatic multiple myeloma (AMM) defined as gene expression profile (GEP) 70 gene score\>-0.26.
