Brief Summary

Modern frontline therapy for patients with hematologic malignancies is based on intensive administration of multiple drugs. In patients with relapsed disease, response to the same drugs is generally p...

Detailed Description

Secondary objectives include the evaluation of the in vivo lifespan and phenotype of the expanded NK cells and explore the efficacy of these donor NK cells in study participants with relapsed or refra...
