Trial Description

This is an open-label single center Phase 1a/1b study with the primary objective of
establishing the safety and exploring the efficacy of infusing the ex vivo combination
product of cytokine induced memory-like (CIML) NK cells plus KP1237 and low dose IL-2 in
newly diagnosed MM patients who have minimal residual disease (MRD+) in first remission prior
to autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT).
