New cell therapy aims to fight leukemia relapse after transplant

NCT ID NCT03068819

Summary

This study tested a new treatment for children and adults whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) returned after a stem cell transplant. Researchers combined a standard donor cell infusion with a special type of donor immune cell, called a 'memory-like' natural killer (NK) cell. The goal was to see if this combination was safe and could better fight the leukemia and keep it from coming back.
