Infusion of Donor Lymphocytes Depleted of CD25+ Regulatory T-cells in Patients With Relapsed Hematologic Malignancies

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Hematologic Malignancies

In brief

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of cell depletion in a donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) product with the use of the CliniMACS machine. Previously, patients with hematologic malignancies who have relapsed after transplant have been given infusions of donor white blood cells calsed donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) as a way to boost their immune function and fight cancer. Information from other research studies suggests that lowering the number of a certain type of white blood cell called CD25+ Tregs in the DLI may allow for a greater effect. In this research study, we are looking for the appropriate dose of DLI depleted of the CD25+ Treg white blood cells that can be given safely.
