Brief Summary

This phase 1 trial investigate safety and maximum tolerated dose of natural killer (NK) cells derived from haploidentical family donors in patients with non-small cell lung cancer

Conditions

Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• maximum tolerated dose of donor NK cells

  determine the dose of NK cells that can be given within dose-limiting toxicities

  6 weeks

Study Arms (1)

Pemetrexed and donor NK cell infusion

EXPERIMENTAL

Eligible patients with stage 4 non-small cell lung cancer receive NK cells derived from HLA-haploidentical family donors. One week prior to NK cell infusion, patients receive pemetrexed (500 mg/m2) intravenous infusion

Biological: Pemetrexed and donor-derived NK cell infusion

Interventions

Pemetrexed and donor-derived NK cell infusion BIOLOGICAL

Patients are administered with donor-derived NK cells one week after pemetrexed infusion

Pemetrexed and donor NK cell infusion

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 20 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

• Patients with histologically confirmed non-small cell lung cancer stage 4 (by AJCC 7th)
• Age, 20 years of age or older
• ECOG performance status, 0-2
• Life expectancy ≥3 months
• Patients should have at least one measurable lesion according to RECIST Criteria v1.1
• Failure after primary systemic treatment with a regimen including platinum-containing agent (primary systemic treatment may be adjuvant chemotherapy or chemo-radiotherapy, given within 12 months)
• Adequate bone marrow function (Hb ≥9 g/dL; ANC ≥1,500/uL; and platelet count ≥75,000/uL)
• Adequate renal function (serum creatinine \<1 x ULN or CLcr ≥45 mL/min by Cockroft and Gault formula
• Adequate liver function (total bilirubin \<1.5 x ULN; AST and ALT \<3 x ULN; and ALP \<3 x ULN, unless there is bone metastases without evidence of liver disease)
• Patients should have a suitable HLA-haploidentical family member who is willing to donate hematopoietic stem cells
• Patients should sign informed consent voluntarily

You may not qualify if:

• Patients who received anti-cancer chemotherapeutic or biological agents within 3 weeks. Patients who received anti-cancer treatment and did not recover from toxicities to grades 0-1 by NCI CTC AE ver 4.0 are not eligible as well.
• Patients with contraindication for any medication planned to be administered in the study
• Patients with significant fluid accumulation in third space (for example, pleural or pericardial effusion) that can not be controlled by drainage
• Active infectious process
• Inability to discontinue aspirin over 1.3 g daily or other NSAIDs. Patients cannot take aspirin or NSAIDs within 5 days of pemetrexed administration
• Major surgery within 4 weeks of study participation
• Palliative radiation therapy within 1 week of study participation
• Acute myocardial infarction within 6 months of study participation. History of uncontrolled arrhythmia, symptomatic angina, or symptomatic heart failure
• Past or current history of CNS metastasis (with exception of those patients who completed treatment of CNS metastasis and not received steroid treatment or whole brain radiotherapy within 2 weeks of screening visit or not received gamma knife treatment within 1 week of screening visit)
• History of malignancy (other than skin basal cell carcinoma, carcinoma in situ of uterine cervix, or thyroid cancer) within 5 years
• Pregnant or lactating women. Child-bearing women who are not willing to avoid pregnancy by contraceptives
• Man not agreeing to contraceptive measures such as condom or abstinence (It is recommended that contraceptive measures be used until 6 months after pemetrexed treatment)
• Other serious illness or medical condition
