Gene therapy trial aims to train immune cells to hunt blood cancer

NCT ID NCT03602612

Summary

This is an early-stage safety study testing a new type of cell therapy for adults with multiple myeloma that has not responded to standard treatments. Doctors take a patient's own immune cells, genetically modify them in a lab to better recognize and attack the cancer, and then infuse them back into the patient. The main goal is to find a safe dose and see if this approach is feasible for controlling this difficult-to-treat blood cancer.
