Engineered t cells with a kill switch aim to make stem cell transplants safer
Disease control OngoingThis study tests a new approach for people receiving a stem cell transplant from a partially matched family donor. The donor's immune cells (T cells) are modified in the lab to include a 'suicide gene' that can be activated by a drug if the cells attack the patient's body, causin…

Suicide Gene-Equipped t cells aim to make stem cell transplants safer
Disease control OngoingThis trial tests whether specially modified T cells from a partially matched donor can help patients recover their immune system faster after a stem cell transplant. The T cells are engineered with a 'suicide gene' that allows doctors to destroy them if they cause graft-versus-ho…
