MT2023-23: A Phase 2, Open-Label, Multi-Center Study of Innate Cell Engager AFM13 in Combination with Allogeneic Natural Killer Cells (AB-101) in Subjects with Recurrent or Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma and CD30-Positive Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma (LuminICE-203)
The purpose of this study is to learn about the effectiveness and safety of a new study drug called AFM13 when used in combination with a new cell therapy called AB-101. AFM13 is an antibody designed to bind to cancer cells and to “natural killer” cells. AB-101 refers to natural killer cells that were obtained from human umbilical cord blood. Natural killer cells are part of your immune system and their primary function is fighting infections and cancer. AFM13 binds the natural killer cells and links them with the cancer cells, so they can eliminate the cancer cells.

A Study of Imlunestrant Versus Standard Endocrine Therapy in Participants With Early Breast Cancer (EMBER-4)
Disruption of estrogen signaling by drugs called selective estrogen receptor degraders (SERDs) is one of the treatment options for patients with estrogen receptor positive (ER+) cancers. Imlunestrant is a SERD that disrupts estrogen signaling, and therefore should stop or slow down tumor growth in ER+ cancers. This study will help answer research questions about the safety of imlunestrant and any side effects, and how imlunestrant compares to standard-of-care endocrine therapy.
