Memory-Like Natural Killer Cells With Nivolumab and Relatlimab in Advanced or Metastatic Melanoma After Progression on Checkpoint Inhibitors

Is NCT05629546 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Phase 1 trial studies multiple treatments including Cytokine-induced memory-like natural killer cells and Relatilmab for advanced melanoma.

Phase 1RecruitingWashington University School of MedicineNCT05629546Data as of May 2026

Treatment: Cytokine-induced memory-like natural killer cells · Relatilmab · NivolumabThis is a Phase 1 open-label, study designed to characterize the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of memory-like natural killer cells (ML NK) in combination with nivolumab and relatlimab in subjects with advanced and/or metastatic melanoma. There will be two arms to test the variables of ML NK cell source. ML NK cells from an autologous source will be used for Arm 1, and ML NK cells from an allogeneic source will be used for Arm 2. The investigators hypothesize that ML NK cells from either an autologous source or allogeneic source are safe and tolerable in subjects with advanced and/or metastatic melanoma.
