FT538 in Combination with Daratumumab for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Trial Status: closed to accrual and intervention

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of FT538 in combination with daratumumab in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). FT538 is a type of cell product made up of “natural killer” or NK cells. NK cells are a type of immune blood cell that are known to attack cancer cells. Daratumumab belongs to a class of drugs called monoclonal antibodies. Antibodies are large, Y-shaped proteins used by the body’s immune system to identify and remove anything that can be harmful to the body such as bacteria, viruses, and cancer cells. Monoclonal antibodies are antibodies that have been designed and engineered to attack a specific target, such as cancer cells. Giving FT538 in combination with daratumumab may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia.
