Immune cells engineered to attack brain tumors in kids: new trial launches

NCT ID NCT07390539

First seen Feb 05, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 16 times

Summary

This early-phase study tests a personalized cell therapy called B7-H3 CAR T cells in 70 children and young adults whose brain tumors have come back or are growing despite standard treatment. The therapy uses the patient's own immune cells, modified to recognize and attack a protein (B7-H3) found on many tumor cells. The main goals are to check safety, find the best dose, and see if the cells can be made successfully for each participant.
