Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to find out whether CD371-YSNVZ-IL18 CAR T cells are safe, and to look for the highest dose of CD371-YSNVZ-IL18 CAR T cells that cause few or mild side effects in participants.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of CAR T cells
Determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose/MTD of CAR T cells in participants with Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (R/R AML)
up to 6 months
Study Arms (3)
Dose Level 1
EXPERIMENTALParticipants with Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (R/R AML)
Dose Level 2
EXPERIMENTALParticipants with Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (R/R AML)
Step-Down Dose
EXPERIMENTALParticipants with Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (R/R AML)
Interventions
Cohorts will be infused with escalating doses of CD371-specific/YSNVz/IL-18 CAR T cells with lymphodepleting chemotherapy (LDC) to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). There is a third, lower dose level (step-down dose) available for dose de-escalation in the event of severe toxicity at the first planned dose level.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- History of CD371+ AML
- Any disease status is eligible for collection
- Expression of CD371 at any level on AML blasts (any method of detection including IHC and/or flow cytometry)
- Age/Weight
- Pediatrics: ≥ 1 year and ≥ 10kg for collection
- Adults: no limit on age/weight for collection
- Patients with history of allo-HCT are eligible for collection if:
- ≥ 100 days post-transplant
- no evidence of active GVHD
- off any immunosuppressive agents for 30 days prior to collection (physiologic dose of corticosteroids is acceptable)
- Relapsed/Refractory CD371+ AML (meeting criteria defined below) for primary refractory AML, late first relapse, and/or advanced disease:
- o Primary refractory AML: Patients are eligible from disease perspective in the event of failure to achieve a CR, CRh or CRi after one or more of the following regimens:
- Two or more courses of standard intensive induction chemotherapy (e.g., cytarabine and daunorubicin given as "7+3," MEC, HiDAC, FLAG+idarubicin, etc.);
- Two or more cycles of venetoclax in combination with one of the following (azacitidine OR decitabine OR low-dose cytarabine), with or without other agents;
- Six or more cycles of azacitidine monotherapy OR four or more courses of decitabine monotherapy
- +27 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Pregnant or lactating women; women of childbearing age, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, unless they are using effective methods of contraception while receiving study treatment and for at least 12 months after all treatment is finished
- Sexually active males, unless they are willing to use a condom during intercourse while receiving study treatment and for at least 12 months after all treatment is finished
- Radiographically-detected or symptomatic CNS disease or CNS 3 disease (i.e., presence of ≥ 5/ul WBC in CSF). Subjects with adequately treated CNS leukemia are eligible.
- Uncontrolled, symptomatic, intercurrent illness including but not limited to infection, psychiatric illness, or social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements or in the opinion of the PI would pose an unacceptable risk to the subject
- Impaired cardiac function (LVEF \< 50%) as assessed by ECHO or MUGA scan
- Patients with following cardiac conditions will be excluded:
- New York Heart Association (NYHA) stage III or IV congestive heart failure
- Myocardial infarction ≤ 6 months prior to enrollment
- History of clinically significant ventricular arrhythmia or unexplained syncope, not believed to be vasovagal in nature or due to dehydration
- Positive serologic test results for HIV
- Acute or chronic HBV infection as assessed by serologic (HBVsAg) or PCR results, defined as HBVsAg+, HBVcAb+, HBV PCR+.
- Acute or chronic HCV infection as assessed by serologic (HCV ab) or PCR results, defined as HCV Ab+ with reflex to positive HCV PCR
- Patient/parent/LAR unable to give informed consent/
- Bridging chemotherapy occurring \< 1 week prior to administration of LDC
- o Exception: hydroxyurea can be continued up to 72 hours prior to leukapheresis or 24 hours prior to LDC
- +17 more criteria
