About this trial

Testing an investigational cancer therapy called TGFBR-2 KO CD70 CAR NK cell therapy.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Participants must have histologically confirmed ccRCC that is metastatic or unresectable and for which standard curative or palliative measures do not exist or are no longer effective.

Confirmation of CD70 expression ≥ 10% by immunohistochemistry staining of the participants primary renal tumor or a metastatic lesion biopsy specimen will be required for enrollment in the study.

Participants must have measurable disease, defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded for nonnodal lesions and short axis for nodal lesions) as ≥20 mm (≥2 cm) by chest x-ray or as ≥10mm (≥1 cm) with CT scan, MRI, or calipers by clinical exam.

Participants must have previously received treatment with at least one ICI and one TKI. Participants must have had unequivocal disease progression on ICI treatment.

Disqualifiers

Presence of clinically significant ongoing Grade ≥ 2 toxicity unequivocally associated withthe previous anticancer treatment, as determined by the PI. Toxicities related to priorsurgery, radiation, prior systemic immune checkpoint inhibitors and chemotherapy should be resolved to Grade 1 or below prior to lymphodepletion.

Presence of fungal, bacterial, viral, or other infection requiring IV antimicrobials for management or not responding to appropriate therapy. Note: Participants with simple urinary tract infection and uncomplicated bacterial pharyngitis are permitted if responding to active treatment.

Known active hepatitis B or C.

Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
