简要总结
Neuroblastoma is a neoplasm of the sympathetic nervous system which affects mostly children younger than 5 years of age. It is a heterogeneous disease, with nearly 50% of patients presenting with a high-risk phenotype. After standard treatment, the 2-year event-free survival (EFS) for high risk neuroblastoma (EFS) is only about 50%. Immunotherapy with anti-GD2 antibodies has been shown to improve EFS in Children's Oncology Group and SIOPEN trials.
The anti-GD2 antibody mediates neuroblastoma cell killing primarily through antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). Natural killer (NK) cells are the main effectors of ADCC. We postulate that infusion of expanded activated NK cells from healthy haploidentical donors along with anti-GD2 antibody will enhance neuroblastoma killing.
详细描述
Adoptive transfer of haploidentical NK cells has been shown to be safe in clinical trials at NUH. There is experience combining antibody infusion with autologous NK cells in the clinical trial with good safety data.
The proposed trial is a phase I/II study to determine the safety and efficacy of expanded activated haploidentical NK cells in combination with anti-GD2 (ch14.18/CHO). We plan to enrol patients with high risk or relapsed neuroblastoma with evidence of residual disease who are at high risk of recurrence or progression on current treatment.
In the proposed protocol , we plan to infuse NK cells at escalating dose levels to find the optimum dose tolerated by the patients in combination with anti-GD2 (ch14.18/CHO) . There are 3 NK cell dose levels :
Dose level 1 (1 x 10^6/kg) , Dose level 2 (1 x 10^7/kg) , Dose level 3 (1 x 10^8/kg)
If a partial response or stable disease is observed, further infusions of NK cells can be administered. There will be intra- and inter - patient dose escalation.

研究组 & 干预措施
Anti-GD2 in combination with NK cells
This is a single arm study. Patients with high risk neuroblastoma who have residual measurable disease will receive a combination of 5 days of anti-GD2 with expanded activated NK cells.
干预措施: Anti-GD2 in combination with NK cells (Biological)
结局指标
主要结局
To measure tumor response after infusion of expanded activated haploidentical NK cells with anti-GD2. Response will be assessed as defined by Revised International Neuroblastoma Response Criteria 2017.
时间窗: 2 years
Disease status at primary and metastatic soft tissue sites will be assessed using MIBG scans or PET scan as applicable. RECIST and Curie scoring systems will be used to assess response. Metastatic bone disease will be assessed using MIBG or PET scan. Bone marrow will be assessed by histology or flow cytometry. Disease response will be defined as Complete response/remission (CR), Partial response (PR), Minor response, Stable disease (SD), or Progressive disease(PD).
次要结局
- To measure the numbers of infused NK cells in peripheral blood at specific time-points after NK cell infusion(2 years)
- To measure cytokine levels in plasma at specific time-points after NK cell infusion(2 years)
