Study Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects of donor natural killer (NK) cell therapy in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (recurrent) or has not responded to treatment (refractory). Natural killer cells are a type of immune cell. Immunotherapy with genetically modified NK cells from donors may induce changes in the body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread.

Primary Outcome

The MTD will be defined as the highest safely tolerated dose where at most one patient in six experiences dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) during DLT observation period. DLT is defined as any steroid refractory acute graft versus host disease.
