NCT ID NCT05784441

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early-phase trial is testing a new treatment called JNJ-90009530, a type of CAR-T cell therapy that targets a protein called CD20 on lymphoma cells. The study includes 21 adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma who have already tried other treatments. The main goals are to find a safe dose and see if the therapy can shrink tumors.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

JNJ-90009530 (a CAR-T cell therapy targeting CD20)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide a new treatment option for patients with hard-to-treat lymphoma who have run out of standard therapies.

What could go wrong

This is a very early (phase 1b) and small (21 participants) study focused on safety and dosing. It may not lead to a widely available treatment, and CAR-T therapies carry risks like severe immune reactions.
