Interventions

INKmuneBIOLOGICAL

INKmune is a patented biologic delivery system and method for cancer treatment using in vivo priming and activation of natural killer (NK) cells in order to achieve tumor cell lysis. INKmune is a suspension of INB16 cells which have been rendered replication incompetent that does not require donor matching.

Progressive disease at the time of study entry as indicated by at least one of the following:
  • i. At least two rising PSA values at a minimum of a one-week interval. If PSA is the only measure of progression, then the minimum PSA value at the start of treatment must be ≥ 1 ng/mL.

  • Diagnosis of small cell/neuroendocrine prostate cancer. Immunohistochemical staining for neuroendocrine markers (e.g., chromogranin A, neuron-specific enolase, and synaptophysin) is not sufficient to establish a small cell/neuroendocrine histology; morphologic features that are characteristic of small cell/neuroendocrine prostate cancer are required to confirm the presence of small cell/neuroendocrine prostate cancer.
  • History of concurrent malignant cancer within previous 3 years, with the exception of in situ carcinomas and non-melanoma skin cancer. If diagnosis or treatment for other cancers have occurred in the last 3 years, further discussion needed.
  • Uncontrolled autoimmune disease including, but not limited to, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, temporal arteritis, and thyroiditis. Autoimmune conditions that are well-controlled in the opinion of the investigator must first be discussed with the Sponsor prior to enrollment.
