Engineered immune cells take aim at childhood cancer
Disease control OngoingThis early-stage trial is testing a new type of cell therapy for children with neuroblastoma that has returned or is hard to treat. The therapy uses the patient's own immune cells, which are modified in the lab to recognize and attack a protein called PHOX2B found on neuroblastom…
