New hope for kids with tough cancers: genetically engineered immune cells target tumors

NCT ID NCT03618381

Summary

This early-phase study is testing the safety and feasibility of a new treatment called CAR T-cell therapy for children and young adults whose solid tumors have come back or not responded to standard treatments. Doctors take a patient's own immune cells, modify them in a lab to better recognize and attack cancer cells, and then infuse them back into the patient. The main goals are to find a safe dose, see if the cells can be reliably made, and understand the side effects.
