Scientists weaponize immune cells to fight Virus-Linked cancer

NCT ID NCT04509726

Summary

This small, early-stage trial tested a new cell therapy for people with advanced or returning nasopharyngeal cancer linked to the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Researchers collected and genetically engineered a patient's own immune cells (T cells) to better recognize and attack the virus inside the cancer cells. The main goal was to find the safest and most effective dose of these modified cells to control the cancer.
