Engineered immune cells take on advanced kidney cancer in new trial

NCT ID NCT06245915

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This early-phase trial tests a new treatment called AB-2100 for people with advanced or metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma that has come back after standard treatments. AB-2100 is made from the patient's own immune cells, which are modified in the lab to better recognize and attack cancer cells. The study aims to see if this therapy is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.

What this could mean

Active substance

AB-2100 (a type of modified immune cell therapy called Integrated Circuit T cells)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a new treatment option for people with advanced kidney cancer that has stopped responding to standard therapies.
