Umbilical Cord Blood Immune Cells and Chemotherapy in Treating Participants with Recurrent or Refractory CD19 Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, or Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Trial Status: administratively complete

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of allogeneic iC9/CAR.19/IL15-transduced cord blood (CB) natural killer (NK) cells (umbilical cord blood immune cells) when given together with chemotherapy, and to see how well they work in treating participants with CD19 positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back or does not respond to treatment. iC9/CAR.19/IL15-transduced CB-NK cells are genetically changed immune cells that may help improve the disease. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine and cyclophosphamide work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving iC9/CAR.19/IL15-transduced CB-NK cells and chemotherapy may work better in treating participants with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
