Natural killer (NK) cells are an emerging immunotherapy approach to acute myeloid leukemia (AML); however, the optimal approach to activate NK cells before adoptive transfer remains unclear. Human NK cells that are primed with the CTV-1 leukemia cell line lysate CNDO-109 exhibit enhanced cytotoxicity against NK cell-resistant cell lines. To translate this finding to the clinic, CNDO-109-activated NK cells (CNDO-109-NK cells) isolated from related HLA-haploidentical donors were evaluated in a phase 1 dose-escalation trial at doses of 3 × 10 (n = 3), 1 × 10 (n = 3), and 3 × 10 (n = 6) cells/kg in patients with AML in first complete remission (CR1) at high risk for recurrence.

This is a single-center, multidose, randomized, open-label, 2-period, 2-arm crossover, bioavailability study in healthy adult male and female subjects who are within 20% of their ideal body weight. Subjects receive trospium 60-mg extended-release capsules once daily and trospium 20-mg tablets twice daily for 10 days, each in a crossover manner.
