Your own immune cells could fight lung lining cancer in new trial

NCT ID NCT07443020

First seen Mar 04, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This early-phase study tests a new treatment called Fast TIL for people with cancer that has spread to the lining around the lungs (pleura) or mesothelioma. The treatment uses immune cells taken from the patient's own pleural fluid, grown in a lab, and then given back through a chest tube along with a drug called IL-2. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and can help shrink tumors or relieve symptoms. About 10 adults who have not responded to standard treatments will take part.
