Brief Title: CIK-Cells in Relapsing Patients With Acute Leukemia or Myelodysplastic Syndromes After SCT.
Official Title: A Prospective Phase I/II Study to Investigate the Feasibility, Safety and Efficacy of IL-15 Activated Cytokine Induced Killer (CIK) Cells in Relapsing Patients With Acute Leukemia or Myelodysplastic Syndromes After Allogeneic SCT
Study ID: NCT02752243
Brief Summary: Multi-site, non-randomized Phase I/II study involving children and adults.
Detailed Description: This is a phase I/II multicenter-study to investigate the feasibility safety and efficacy of interleukin (IL)-15 activated CIK cells in patients with acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) showing evidence of relapse after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). CIK cell infusions will be given with an interval of 4-6 weeks according to a dose escalation schedule in patients with impending relapse after allogeneic SCT. In presence of acute graft versus host disease (aGvHD) ≥ grade II, the next scheduled infusion will not be administered.
