Intervention model description:
Subjects in both cohorts will initially receive lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by
a single 4 week cycle of the CD19 t haNK single-agent regimen. Following a 1-week rest
period, subjects will then receive lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by a single
4-week cycle of CD19 t-haNK in combination with rituximab (cohort A) or in combination
with rituximab and N-803 (cohort B). Following a second 1-week rest period, subjects will
receive up to 4 repeated 4 week cycles of CD19 t haNK in combination with rituximab
(cohort A) or in combination with rituximab and N 803 (cohort B) without lymphodepleting

Intervention type:
Biological
Intervention name:
CD19t-haNK suspension
Description:
Derived from the parental NK-92 (aNK) cell line, CD19 t-haNK is a human, allogeneic, NK
cell line that has been engineered to express a CAR targeting CD19. Similar to the haNK
cell line, CD19 t haNK has also been engineered to produce endoplasmic reticulum-retained
IL 2 and the high-affinity (158V) variant of the Fcγ receptor (FcγRIIIa/CD16a), and
thereby has enhanced CD16-targeted ADCC capabilities. CD19 t-haNK is similar to PD L1
t-haNK, differing only in the CAR that is expressed (CD19 vs PD-L1).

Summary:
Open-label, Phase 1 Study of CD19 t-haNK as a Single Agent and in Combination With an
IL-15 Superagonist (N-803) and Rituximab in Subjects With Relapsed/Refractory Non-Hodgkin
Lymphoma. Up to 20 subjects will be enrolled and randomized 1:1 to 1 of 2 cohorts, as
outlined below. The initial 3 subjects will be sequentially enrolled in a staggered
fashion, with a 7 day interval between each subject to enable the capture and monitoring
of any acute and subacute toxicities.
Detailed description:
This is a phase 1, first-in-human (FIH), open-label study to evaluate the safety of CD19
t-haNK as a single agent and the safety and preliminary efficacy of CD19 t haNK in
combination with rituximab only and in combination with rituximab and N 803 in subjects
with R/R NHL.
Up to 20 subjects will be enrolled and randomized 1:1 to 1 of 2 cohorts, as outlined
below. The initial 3 subjects will be sequentially enrolled in a staggered fashion, with
a 7 day interval between each subject to enable the capture and monitoring of any acute
and subacute toxicities.
Subjects in both cohorts will initially receive lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by
a single 4 week cycle of the CD19 t haNK single-agent regimen. Following a 1-week rest
period, subjects will then receive lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by a single
4-week cycle of CD19 t-haNK in combination with rituximab (cohort A) or in combination
with rituximab and N-803 (cohort B). Following a second 1-week rest period, subjects will
receive up to 4 repeated 4 week cycles of CD19 t haNK in combination with rituximab
(cohort A) or in combination with rituximab and N 803 (cohort B) without lymphodepleting
chemotherapy.
