E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To assess the safety of immunotherapy with haploidenic allogeneic NK cells and IL-2, following lymphoblative chemotherapy and / or radiotherapy (2Gy) in the tumor, in pediatric patients with refractory sarcoma. |
Evaluar la seguridad de la inmunoterapia con células NK alogénicas haploidénticas e IL-2, tras quimioterapia linfoablativa y/o radioterapia (2Gy) en el tumor, en pacientes pediátricos con sarcoma refractario. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
1. To analyze the incidence of episodes of febrile neutropenia, bacteremia, infections (viral, fungal), hematologic recovery and hospital admission associated with treatment with NK + IL-2 cells.
2. Evaluate the rate of disease progression five years after treatment with NK + IL-2 cells.
3. Determine the expression of NK cell ligands in both solid and serum tumor samples from patients with sarcoma. To correlate these results with the progression of the disease to identify new prognostic biomarkers. |
1. Analizar la incidencia de episodios de neutropenia febril, bacteriemias, infecciones (víricas, fúngicas), recuperación hematológica e ingreso hospitalario asociado al tratamiento con las células NK + IL-2.
