Supercharged donor cells target stubborn blood cancers

NCT ID NCT01087294

Summary

This study tested a new cell therapy for adults whose B-cell blood cancers (like leukemia or lymphoma) came back or never fully went away after a donor stem cell transplant. Researchers collected immune cells from the original transplant donor, genetically engineered them to better recognize and attack cancer cells, and then gave them back to the patient. The main goals were to see if this treatment was safe and if it could help control the cancer.
