Supercharged immune cells take aim at untreatable leukemia

NCT ID NCT03620058

Summary

This early-stage study is testing the safety of a new type of personalized cell therapy for adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has returned or hasn't responded to standard chemotherapy. Doctors collect a patient's own immune cells, genetically modify them to recognize and attack cancer cells, and then infuse them back into the body. The trial is testing two different modified cell types, alone and in combination, to see if they can control the cancer.
