Autologous Memory-like NK Cell Therapy With BHV-1100 and Low Dose IL-2 in Multiple Myeloma Patients

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Multiple Myeloma
Interventions
Combination Product: CIML NK Cells plus KP1237 and low dose IL-2
Registration Number
NCT04634435
Lead Sponsor
Biohaven Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Brief Summary

This is an open-label single center Phase 1a/1b study with the primary objective of establishing the safety and exploring the efficacy of infusing the ex vivo combination product of BHV-1100 plus cytokine induced memory-like (CIML) NK cells plus IVIG and low dose IL-2 in the peri-transplant setting in MM patients with minimal residual disease (MRD+) in first or second remission.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Had measurable disease according to Standard Diagnostic Criteria at the time of initial Multiple Myeloma diagnosis
  • Meets criteria for symptomatic multiple myeloma at the time of induction chemotherapy
  • Is transplant eligible based on clinician judgement
  • Willing to undergo ASCT in first or second remission
  • Achieve partial response or better with induction chemotherapy prior to ASCT according to the IMWG Uniform Response Criteria for Multiple Myeloma
  • Be MRD+ upon restaging prior to stem cell collection and ASCT
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (EGOG) performance status score of less than 2
  • Life expectancy greater than six months
  • Have a creatinine clearance > 45 mL/min/m2 at the time of transplant evaluation
  • If frozen stem cells from earlier mobilized leukapheresis are unavailable at the time of mobilized leukapheresis, patients must meet parameters/criteria according to institutional SOP for autologous stem cell apheresis
  • Be willing and clinically stable to undergo stem-cell mobilized and collect enough CD34+ cells sufficient for 2 ASCT per institutional guidelines or investigator discretion or have sufficient frozen cells from a SoC collection prior to signing study consent
  • Be willing and clinically stable to undergo a non-mobilized MNC-Apheresis while admitted to the hospital to generate CIML NK cells
  • Be willing to undergo maintenance after ASCT per NCCN guidelines based on disease risk
  • If a woman of child-bearing potential, be willing to follow birth control and pregnancy testing practice as recommended
  • Be willing to undergo bone marrow aspirate and biopsy as per treatment plan
  • Patients must meet adequate organ function/reserve based on institutional SOP for autologous stem cell transplant eligibility
  • Non-secretory MM can participate if they have measurable disease in the bone marrow and are amenable to be followed by MRD testing
Exclusion Criteria
  • Prior autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant
  • Prior cellular therapies, including NK cell therapy
  • Prior treatment with monoclonal antibodies, within 28 days of MCN apheresis
  • Prior treatment with high dose melphalan
  • Prior treatment with immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory agents with exception of 5 mg or less of prednisone daily, within 14 days of MCN-Apheresis
  • Disease progression at the time of study treatment
  • History of Plasma Cell Leukemia at any time prior to enrollment
  • Patients seropositive for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
  • Uncontrolled, Hepatitis C Virus or Hepatitis B Virus infection
  • Patient receiving other investigational therapy
  • Patients with active, clinically significant autoimmune diseases
  • Patients with active, clinically significant cancer other than multiple myeloma
  • Patients with severe, uncontrolled psychiatric or neurological conditions that make difficult the assessment of neurologic toxicity of the study treatment
  • Patients who have received anti-MM therapy (with the exclusion of monoclonal antibodies) within 14 days of study treatment
  • More than two prior lines of anti-myeloma therapy, with induction therapy followed by maintenance being considered as one line and CyBorD to RVD transition in the absence of progressive disease being considered as one line
