Immune cell therapy shows promise for BK virus in transplant kids
NCT ID NCT04197596
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether specially grown immune cells (BK-specific cytotoxic T-cells) from a related donor can safely lower BK virus levels in children, teens, and young adults. Participants have BK infections that did not get better with standard treatment, often after a stem cell or organ transplant, or due to a weak immune system. The cells are given by infusion, and the study monitors for side effects and virus reduction.
