Interventions
- EBNK-001 + IL-15 + Pembrolizumab — BIOLOGICALBiological: EBNK-001 (Allogeneic NK Cells) Dose levels (example): 1×10\^8; 3×10\^8; 9×10\^8 viable cells/infusion Schedule: weekly infusions on Days 1, 8, and 15 (per cycle) Drug: Cyclophosphamide (CY) lymphodepletion: 300 mg/m² IV daily ×2 days (Cycle 1 only) Drug: Fludarabine (FLU) Example lymphodepletion: 25 mg/m² IV daily ×2 days (Cycle 1 only) Drug: Interleukin-15 (IL-15) Low-dose IL-15 given after NK cell infusion to support NK cell survival dose used in NK protocols: 6 MIU per dose Drug: Pembrolizumab Pembrolizumab administered per standard prescribing schedule
Study Details
This Phase 1/2 study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of EBNK-001 (allogeneic NK cells) given after lymphodepleting cyclophosphamide/fludarabine (CY/FLU) and supported with low-dose IL-15, administered either alone or in combination with pembrolizumab in adults with advanced/metastatic solid tumors. The study will determine a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) and explore signals of clinical activity using RECIST-based response criteria.
