This is an interventional treatment trial for Acute Myeloid Leukemia Read More

Key Inclusion Criteria:

• Adequate hematologic status, defined as:

  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1000/µL unless, in the opinion of the investigator, cytopenia is due to underlying leukemia
  • Platelet count ≥ 50,000/µL unless, in the opinion of the investigator, thrombocytopenia is due to underlying leukemia
  • Absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) ≥ 100/µL

• Adequate renal, hepatic, pulmonary and cardiac function defined as:

  • Creatinine clearance (as estimated by the Cockcroft Gault formula) ≥ 60 mL/min
  • Serum alanine aminotransferase/aspartate aminotransferase ≤ 2.5 x upper limit of normal
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 mg/dL, except in individuals with Gilbert's syndrome
  • Cardiac ejection fraction ≥ 50%, no clinically significant pericardial effusion as determined by an echocardiogram (ECHO), and no clinically significant electrocardiogram (ECG) findings
  • Baseline oxygen saturation > 92% on room air and no clinically significant pleural effusion as determined by chest imaging
• Contraception: males and females of childbearing potential must agree to use an effective method of contraception
• Pregnancy testing: females of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test

Key Exclusion Criteria:

• Requirement for urgent therapy due to ongoing or impending oncologic emergency (eg, leukostasis or tumor lysis syndrome (TLS)) or the possible requirement for urgent therapy due to ongoing or impending oncologic emergency (eg, spinal cord compression, bowel obstruction, leukostasis, or TLS) at the time of enrollment or KITE-222 infusion
• History of C-type lectin-like molecule-1 (CLL-1)-directed therapy or genetically modified T-cell therapy
• History of malignancy other than nonmelanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in situ (eg, cervix, bladder, or breast) unless disease free for at least 3 years after the last definitive therapy

• Primary immunodeficiency disorders
• History of a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or acute or chronic active hepatitis B or C infection
• History of an autoimmune disease resulting in end-organ injury or requiring systemic immunosuppression or systemic disease modifying agents within the last 2 years
• History or presence of a CNS disorder
