What this Trial Is About
To determine the safety, efficacy and optimal cell dose of CAR 5/IL15-transduced CB-NK cells in patients with relapsed/refractory T-cell malignances, mantle cell lymphoma, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia. The efficacy and optimal dose will be identified for individual diseases.
