NCT ID NCT05587543

First seen Apr 25, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This early-phase study tests two types of specially engineered immune cells (CAR-T and TCR-T) that target the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in patients whose nasopharyngeal cancer has come back or not responded to standard treatments. About 24 adults aged 18-75 with EBV-positive tumors will receive increasing doses to find the safest and most effective dose. The main goals are to check safety and measure how well the cells control the cancer.
