Adoptive Immunotherapy and Interleukin-2 in Treating Patients With Recurrent Accelerated or Blast Phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia After Undergoing Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation
This study is not yet open for patient recruitment.
Sponsored by: | Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center |

Information provided by: | National Cancer Institute (NCI) |
Purpose
RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as cellular adoptive immunotherapy, work in different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing. Interleukin-2 may stimulate a person's white blood cells to kill cancer cells. Combining cellular adoptive immunotherapy with interleukin-2 may be effective treatment for recurrent accelerated or blast phase chronic myelogenous leukemia.
PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of combining cellular adoptive immunotherapy with interleukin-2 in treating patients who have recurrent accelerated or blast phase chronic myelogenous leukemia after undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Official Title: Phase I/II Pilot Study of Adoptive Immunotherapy Comprising CD8+ Proteinase 3 (PR3)-Specific Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Clones and Interleukin-2 in Patients With Recurrent Accelerated or Blastic Phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia After Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation
OBJECTIVES:
OUTLINE: This is an open-label, non-randomized, pilot study.
Donors undergo leukapheresis for the harvest of allogeneic blood mononuclear cells. CD8+ proteinase 3 (PR3)-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) are isolated as clones and generated ex vivo.
Patients undergo allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
Patients with relapse/progression (more than 5% leukemic blasts in marrow) after transplantation may receive cytoreductive chemotherapy before adoptive immunotherapy.
After leukemic relapse or progression, patients receive adoptive immunotherapy comprising allogeneic CD8+ PR3-specific CTLs IV over 1-2 hours on days 0, 7, 14, 28, and 49 and interleukin-2 subcutaneously twice daily on days 28-41 and 49-62. Treatment continues in the absence of unacceptable toxicity.
Patients with disease progression or recurrence after adoptive immunotherapy may be eligible to repeat treatment.
Patients are followed until day 90, at day 180, and then every 3 months for 2 years.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 15-35 patients will be accrued for this study within 3-5 years.
