Anti-NKG2A Monoclonal Antibody for AML or MDS Patients Undergoing Haploidentical Transplantation

Recruiting now · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Acute Myeloid Leukaemia, MDS (Myelodysplastic Syndrome), MPN (Myeloproliferative Neoplasms)

In brief

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the anti-NKG2A monoclonal antibody (Monalizumab) in patients undergoing haploidentical stem cell transplantation (Haplo-SCT) with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy). The main questions this trial aims to answer are: * Does Monalizumab improve graft-versus-host disease-free and progression-free survival (GPFS) in patients after Haplo-SCT? * What are the safety and side effects of Monalizumab in this patient group? * How does Monalizumab affect the reconstitution and function of NK cells in patients undergoing Haplo-SCT? * Researchers will administer Monalizumab to participants on day +30 and +44 after transplantation to see if it enhances immune responses and prevents disease relapse or GVHD. Participants will: * Receive Monalizumab intravenously at 1 mg/kg on day +30 and day +44 after Haplo-SCT * Be monitored for clinical outcomes such as GVHD, survival rates, and immune function for up to one year after the transplant * Undergo regular checkups and tests to assess the effectiveness and safety of the treatment

Women of childbearing potential must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception from the time of giving informed consent until at least 52 weeks after the last dose of study therapy. Men with female partners who are of childbearing potential must agree that they will use a highly effective method of contraception from the time of giving informed consent until at least 52 weeks after the patient receives his last dose of study therapy contraception.
