Summary

This early-phase study tested a new treatment for people with B-cell lymphoma or leukemia that returned after standard therapy. Researchers took patients' own immune cells (T cells), added a special receptor to help them recognize and attack cancer cells, and infused them back. The main goals were to check safety and see how long the modified cells survive in the body.
