Supercharged immune cells take on blood cancers in new trial

NCT ID NCT01853631

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new treatment for people with advanced B-cell lymphoma or leukemia that has returned or not improved after standard therapy. Researchers take a patient's own T-cells, add a special receptor (CAR) that targets the CD19 protein on cancer cells, and also add extra stimulatory proteins (CD28 and CD137) to help the cells work better and last longer. The goal is to find a safe dose and see if these engineered T-cells can control the cancer.
