This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of a new intraperitoneal FT538 immunotherapy in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). FT538 is an immunotherapy that has been genetically engineered (the structure of the NK cell has been changed from the state in which NK cells naturally exist in the body) using virus-based technology. FT538 may induce changes in the body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. In this study, the FT538 is given directly into the abdominal space through an IP catheter. Enoblituzumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cyclophosphamide and fludarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Cyclophosphamide and fludarabine are given prior to FT538 to help kill tumor cells in the body and prepare the body to receive FT538. Giving FT538 with or without enoblituzumab, along with combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells in patients with recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of iPSC-derived CD16/IL-15RF-expressing CD38-eliminated NK Cells (FT538) monotherapy when administered via intraperitoneal (IP) catheter and in combination with intravenous (IV) enoblituzumab in patients with recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To characterize the toxicities associated with IP FT538 when administered as monotherapy and after IV enoblituzumab.
II. To estimate progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) at 6 months and 12 months from the 1st dose of FT538.
III. To gain preliminary efficacy information based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 of this treatment combination.
CORRELATIVE (OR EXPLORATORY) OBJECTIVES:
I. To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of FT538 monotherapy and in combination with enoblituzumab in the peritoneal fluid, peripheral blood and tumor biopsy samples.
II. To assess the association of PK in the peritoneal fluid of FT538 monotherapy and in combination with enoblituzumab in patient population with safety and anti-tumor activity.
III. To assess tumor microenvironment.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of FT538. Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 cohorts.
COHORT I: Patients receive FT538 intraperitoneally (IP), cyclophosphamide intravenously (IV), and fludarabine IV on study. Patients undergo tumor biopsy and a surgical placement of an intraperitoneal catheter on study. Patients also undergo computed tomography (CT) scan, positron emission tomography (PET) scan, and biospecimen collection throughout the study. Patients may undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as clinically indicated while on study.
COHORT II: Patients receive FT538 IP, enoblituzumab, cyclophosphamide, and fludarabine IV on study. Patients undergo tumor biopsy and a surgical placement of an intraperitoneal catheter on study. Patients also undergo CT scan, PET scan and biospecimen collection throughout the study. Patients may undergo MRI as clinically indicated while on study.
