About

This study is a prospective, single-center, single-arm exploratory clinical study, aiming to complete the preliminary clinical observation of 12 children with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia treated with JK500 cell injection to evaluate the safety of clinical infusion and the initial efficacy of JK500 cell injection in the treatment of children with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

Full description

The Main components of JK500 cell injection are regenerative natural killer (NK) cells derived from human embryonic stem cells and 0.9% sodium chloride solution.

Enrollment: 12 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: Under 18 years old

2. AML associated with congenital syndromes such as Down syndrome, Fanconi's anemia, Bloom's syndrome, Koch's syndrome, or congenital aplastic anemia;

3. The subjects have active virus infection, and during the screening period, the serum virology test is performed, and the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody is positive, hepatitis B surface antigen or E antigen is positive, hepatitis C antibody is positive, or treponema pallidum antibody is positive;

4. Presence of active systemic infection; Participated in a drug trial within the past 4 weeks;

6. children with liver and kidney dysfunction, including:

   1. Serum creatinine >2× upper limit of normal reference value;
   2. Serum total bilirubin > 2× upper limit of normal reference value;
   3. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) > 2× upper limit of normal reference values

7. Children who have used live attenuated vaccine 4 weeks before administration or plan to use live attenuated vaccine within 6 months after administration;

8. Have any other conditions that may cause the subject to be unable to complete the study or present a significant risk to the subject in the opinion of the Investigator.

12 participants in 1 patient group

JK500 cell injection

Experimental group

Description:

They were divided into three dose groups: 10\^6, 5x10\^6 and 3x10\^7 JK500 cells injection /kg/ time, three times a week, a total of 6 times. According to the principle of dose escalation, 3 patients were assigned to each dose group. After completing the treatment of 3 patients in each dose group, the Safety Review Committee (SRC) discussed whether to enter the next dose group.

Treatment:

Drug: JK500 cell injection，cyclophosphamide，Fludarabine
