Overview

Objectives: To determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of allogeneic PB103 in patients with IIIb/IV or refractory non-small-cell lung cancer

Description

PB103 is allogeneic NK cells derived from a healthy donor. In this phase I/IIa trial, patients with IIIb/IV and refractory non-small cell lung cancer will be enrolled for testing the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of PB103 (NK cells). For assessment of safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of PB103, three-dose levels of PB103 will be administered to enrolled patients based on the 3+3 dose-escalation design. MTD is defined as one dose level below the dose at which dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) is observed in <33% of the participants. DLT is defined as grade 4 toxicities (hematological toxicities), grade 3 toxicities (non-hematological toxicities), or acute GvHD more than grade 2. Once MTD is determined, 12 patients at MTD dose will be enrolled for assessment of safety and efficacy of PB103 at phase IIa.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

Recipient
  1. Recipients (Subjects) are between 20-70 years of age.

  3. Signed informed consent.
  4. Subjects with histologically or cytologically confirmed non -small-cell lung cancer of stage IIIB-IV, not amenable to definitive multi-modality therapy, or recurrent disease after a prior diagnosis of stage I-III disease.

        or creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min
        Donor
          1. Donors are between 20-65 years of age.
          2. Related donor: 6/6 matched at HLA-A, -B and -DRb1 or haploidentical donor ≥ 4/8 match
             at HLA-A, -B, -C and -DRb1
          3. Signed informed consent.
        Exclusion Criteria:
        Recipient:
          1. Patients with history of clinically significant interstitial lung disease or radiation
             pneumonitis.
          2. Patients with brain metastases or leptomeningeal disease.
          3. Patients who have had radiation to the lung fields within four weeks of starting
             treatment. For all palliative radiation to all other sites, at least 7 days must have
             elapsed prior to starting to treatment.
          4. Patients who have had major surgery (e.g., intra-thoracic, intra-abdominal, or
             intra-pelvic) within two weeks prior to starting study drug or who have not recovered
             from side effects of such procedure. Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) and
             mediastinoscopy will not be counted as major surgery and patients can be enrolled in
             the study ≥1 week after the procedure.
          5. Patients who received anti-cancer treatment and did not recover from toxicities to
             grades 0-1 by NCI CTCAE (version 5.0) are not eligible but WBC and Hgb Grade 2 is
             acceptable.
          6. Patients with a second, clinically active, cancer. Patients with second cancers that
             have been treated with curative intent and/or are currently inactive are allowed.
          7. Known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) seropositivity.
          8. Participants who are receiving any other investigational agents. Patients previously
             treated with investigational agents must complete a washout period of at least one
             week or five half-lives, whichever is longer, before starting treatment.
          9. Patients receiving concomitant immunosuppressive agents or chronic corticosteroid use,
             except those on topical or inhaled steroids, or steroids are given via local
             injection.
         10. Patients with clinically significant, uncontrolled cardiovascular disease, such as
             unstable angina or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to screening, abnormal
             left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF <50%), cardiac arrhythmia not controlled with
             medication, uncontrolled hypertension defined as an SBP ≥ 160mm Hg and/or DBP ≥ 100mm
             Hg, with or without anti-hypertensive medication. Initiation or adjustment of
             antihypertensive medication(s) is allowed prior to screening.
         11. Presence of fungal, bacterial, viral, or other infection requiring IV antimicrobials
             for management.
         12. Pregnancy and lactating women.
         13. Other situations the investigators think not eligible for participation in the
