A Study of (Interleukin-12) IL-12 in Patients With Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML)

Official Title

Phase I Study of Autologous Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) Cells Containing Lentivirus Engineering Expression of IL-12

Summary:

This is a phase 1 study (the first stage in testing a new treatment to see how safe and tolerable the treatment is) which will include patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has either returned or has a more than a 70% chance of coming back and cannot have a bone marrow transplant.
